Safety valves

VUBR 3/8" safety valves?

VUBR 3/8" safety valves are components in hydraulic systems designed to prevent uncontrolled load dropping in the event of a failure, such as a hose burst. They work by automatically blocking the flow of hydraulic oil when its rate exceeds a set value, effectively protecting the system from potential damage and ensuring operational safety.

Key features of VUBR 3/8" valves

VUBR 3/8" valves are characterized by a robust galvanized steel construction, ensuring corrosion resistance and durability in harsh working conditions. Internal components are hardened and ground, guaranteeing precise operation of the ball mechanism responsible for blocking the flow. A unique feature of these valves is the possibility of external flow adjustment via a knob, allowing their operation to be adapted to the specific requirements of the hydraulic system.

Application of VUBR 3/8" safety valves

These valves are widely used in various industries, including agriculture, construction, and manufacturing. They are particularly useful in hydraulic systems where there is a risk of hose rupture and uncontrolled load dropping, such as telescopic cylinders in loading trailers. Their installation directly at the cylinder ensures an immediate response in the event of a failure, protecting both equipment and operators from potential hazards.

Other types of safety valves in the Hydron offer

In addition to VUBR 3/8" valves, Hydron also offers other types of safety valves used in various hydraulic systems. Two popular types are discussed below: hose burst valves and overload valves.

• Hose burst valves. What are hose burst valves? These valves, also known as flow safety valves, are designed to prevent the uncontrolled flow of hydraulic oil in the event of a hose rupture or damage. Their key function is to automatically shut off the oil flow when an excessive pressure drop is detected, minimizing the risk of system-wide failure.
• Overload valves. What are overload valves ? Overload valves are components that protect hydraulic systems from damage caused by an excessive increase in pressure. When a critical pressure level is reached, the valve opens, allowing excess oil to flow back to the tank, which prevents overloads and possible failures.
