HYDAC offers a wide range of direct acting and pilot operated Relief and Reducing Valves. In general, the direct acting valves are faster in response while pilot operated valves have flatter pressure/flow characteristics.
HYDAC Relief Valves are available in direct acting poppet and pilot operated spool types with optional pressure adjustment ranges up to 6000 psi (420 bar). Models are available for flow rates up to 80 gpm (300 l/min).
HYDAC Pressure Reducing Valves are direct acting and pilot operated spool types with optional pressure adjustment ranges up to 5000 psi (350 bar). They have been designed to maintain a constant secondary regulated pressure regardless of pressure variation in the primary system and have an additional relieving feature for the secondary circuit protection. Models are available for flow rates up to 26 gpm (100 l/min).

DR08-01
Pressure Reducing/Relieving, Direct Acting, Spool Type
4 gpm (15 l/min) • 6000 psi (420 bar)
Description
A screw-in cartridge, direct acting, spool type, pressure reducing/relieving valve with internal spring chamber drain, intended for use as a pressure regulating device. This valve maintains a constant secondary regulated/ reduced pressure regardless of pressure variations in the primary system. In addition to the reducing function, this valve also provides a relief function from the reduced pressure port to the tank port, if pressure in the secondary circuit exceeds the set pressure.
Operation
The DR08-01 allows bidirectional flow between port 2 and port 1 with the spring chamber drained through port 3. Once the pressure setting is reached at port 1, the spool shifts to restrict the flow at port 2, thereby regulating pressure at port 1. If pressure at port 1 exceeds the setting of the valve, the spool will shift further and relieve excess pressure through port 3. Any pressure at port 3 is directly additive to valve pressure.
Features
- Spring ranges up to 3000 psi (210 bar)
- Positive stop prevents spring from over adjustment (options V,H)
- Adjustable under full pressure
- Stroke limiting device for enhanced safety
- Fast response
