APPLICATION
The OV-Series valve is a "Relief Valve" (RV) in a Available in screwed connection and flange,
sense that the outlet pressure doesn't affect the in a choice of brass, cast iron, steel or stainless
valves set pressure. The valves operate off the steel. Widely used in a variety of applications,
inlet pressures only. The OV-Series valve is to be the OV-Series valves are ideally suited for all
used when you don't want the backpressure to affect hydraulic and lubricating systems for pressure

INSTALLATION should be piped back to the tank. Care must be

taken to have the discharge well below the oil

Fulflo valves are not designed to be positive shut-off, Fulflo valves provide reliable chatter-free operation
