Frequently Asked Questions
How to troubleshoot a pressure relief valve?
Troubleshooting a pressure relief valve involves checking for leaks, verifying the set pressure and checking blockages or obstructions.
What is the difference between a direct-acting pressure relief valve and a pilot-operated pressure relief valve?
Direct-acting pressure relief valve's operation is based on the force of a spring, while a pilot-operated pressure relief valve operates on the pressure of a pilot system.
Should I install these valves downstream or upstream of a block valve?
These Eaton pressure control valves must be installed upstream of a block valve.
What is the difference between pressure relief and pressure-reducing valves?
A pressure relief valve releases excess pressure, while a pressure-reducing valve reduces the pressure in a system.
