Relief Valves
Relief Valves
(OP)
Does anyone in the aerospace industry know of a standard/minimum margin between the minimum relief setting of a valve and the operating value?
That is we don't want the valve to potentially crack/relief during operation.
Thanks for your assistance.

RE: Relief Valves
This allows for the hysteresis in the spring that retains the seat of the relief valve closed.
You may find that some valves can work on a tighter tolerance but in my experience 10% is a good reliable starting point.
