In high-pressure hydraulic systems, safety, control, and system longevity are non-negotiable. One of the most crucial components to achieving these goals is the pressure control valve. At Kiloton, a leading supplier of Enerpac hydraulic equipment in South Africa, we understand the significance of these valves in ensuring safe, efficient industrial operations, especially in industries such as mining, construction, and manufacturing.
Whether you’re working with directional control, flow control, or pressure regulation, Enerpac offers precision-engineered valves rated for safe operation up to 10,000 psi. These valves are available in a variety of configurations, including direct pump mounting, solenoid or hand actuation, and in-line or remote installation, providing a solution tailored to your hydraulic setup.
What Are Pressure Control Valves?
Pressure control valves regulate and stabilize hydraulic pressure within a system to avoid overloads and ensure consistent performance. Their primary functions include:
- Preventing overpressure that could damage equipment
- Maintaining pressure in isolated circuits
- Supporting fluid flow control for complex sequences
- Enhancing operational safety and equipment lifespan
Kiloton stocks Enerpac pressure control valves that meet stringent safety standards while delivering peak hydraulic performance.
Types of Pressure Control Valves
Enerpac Directional Air Valves
Ideal for air-operated hydraulic systems, these valves redirect flow and protect the system from excessive pressure by dumping surplus hydraulic fluid back into the reservoir.
Enerpac Directional Control Valves
Designed for operation at high pressure (up to 10,000 psi), these valves enable manual or solenoid control, direct pump mounting, and in-line installation, offering unmatched flexibility.
Enerpac Flow & Pressure Control Valves
These valves maintain desired pressure levels and flow rates in hydraulic systems, ensuring sequences occur accurately and efficiently.
Enerpac Pressure-Relief & Pressure-Reducing Valves
Relief valves protect systems by venting fluid when pressure exceeds set limits. Reducing valves, on the other hand, ensure downstream circuits maintain a constant pressure for reliable operation.
Applications Across Industries
From hoisting equipment and hydraulic bolting tools to industrial presses, pressure control valves play a vital role in almost every hydraulic application. Industries like oil and gas, mining, and heavy machinery depend on them to maintain system integrity and performance.
