Hydraulic Symbol?

thread1083-405304

Hydraulic Symbol?

RE: Hydraulic Symbol?

I don't recall ever seeing one quite like that.
Maybe someone was just screwing around with a valve drawing template?

If there's no explanatory legend on the remainder of the drawing set, you need to call up the owner and ask. ... then come back here and tell us what the hell the symbol was intended to represent. It's not a model of clarity to me.

It's a pressure reducing valve with a relief function

Thanks both of you for your responses.
More information from the client would be useful and I'll chase them up as soon as I can extract contact details from the sales guy, when he gets back.

RE: Hydraulic Symbol?

The right hand slanted-arrow through the spring means that the spring is adjustable.

Thanks Compositepro but it wasn't the arrow through the spring I had a problem with it's the one inside the block with a right angle bend in it.
