286-7009: Pressure Relief Valve

A Pressure Relief Valve is used to protect the transmission control unit from excessive pressure build-up. It consists of a valve body, a spring-loaded valve mechanism, and an adjustable pressure setting mechanism. The relief valve is attached to the hydraulic transmission control circuit and is engineered to automatically open and allow fluid to bypass when the unit pressure reaches a predetermined set point. Attributes: • Ensures that the pressure remains within a safe and optimal range • Helps to maintain stability by preventing pressure fluctuations and surges Applications: A Pressure Relief Valve acts as a safety measure by preventing excessive pressure build-up within the transmission control unit.
