Description
:
The vent valve, also known as a pressure relief valve, is used to regulate pressure in a unit by releasing excess pressure. The vent valve works by opening automatically when the pressure in the unit exceeds a set threshold. This allows the excess pressure to escape, preventing it from building up and causing damage. The valve then closes again when the pressure is once again at a safe level.
Features
- Designed to prevent overpressure conditions.
- Manufactured to exact specifications for rugged durability, reliable performance and high efficiency.
Applications
The vent valve is used to regulate the flow of air or gas into and out of the unit, and is widely used on Cat motor graders, excavators, tree harvesters, engines (piston), generator sets, OEM applications, material handlers, skidders, pipelayers, wheel dozers (for scrapers), scrapers, track-type tractors, trucks (including truck dozers), articulated trucks, wheel dozers, compactors, wheel loaders, forklifts, drive lines (power module, transmission, TC), motor common platform, motor common platform (C13), motor common platform (C15), motor common platform (C18), and paving equipment.
