2. Pilot-operated relief valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pilot-operated_relief_valve

   PORV are also called pilot-operated safety valve (POSV), pilot-operated pressure relief valve (POPRV), or pilot-operated safety relief valve (POSRV), depending on the manufacturer and the application. Technically POPRV is the most generic term, but PORV is often used generically (as in this article) even though it should refer to valves in ...

3. Pilot valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pilot_valve

   Pilot valves are useful because they allow a small and easily operated feed to control a much higher pressure or higher flow feed, which would otherwise require a much larger force to operate; indeed, this is even useful when a solenoid is used to operate the valve. Pilot valves are often used in critical applications (e.g., emergency and SIS ...

4. Safety valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safety_valve

   Pilot-operated relief valves are a specialized type of pressure safety valve. A leak tight, lower cost, single emergency use option would be a rupture disk. Safety valves were first developed for use on steam boilers during the Industrial Revolution. Early boilers operating without them were prone to explosion unless carefully operated.

5. Hydraulic machinery - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_machinery

   Whereas the check valve is open or closed, the counterbalance valve acts a bit like a pilot controlled flow control. Cartridge valves are in fact the inner part of a check valve; they are off the shelf components with a standardized envelope, making them easy to populate a proprietary valve block. They are available in many configurations; on ...

6. Flow control valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_control_valve

   Additionally, pilot-operated flow control valves are used in more advanced systems to provide precise flow adjustments while optimizing energy efficiency. These configurations allow the valve to respond dynamically to changing conditions, ensuring efficient fluid management.

7. Solenoid valve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solenoid_valve

   Direct-acting valves are useful for their simplicity, although they do require a large amount of power relative to other types of solenoid valves. [4] If fluid pressures are high and orifice diameter is large, a solenoid may not generate enough force on its own to actuate the valve. To solve this, a Pilot-Operated solenoid valve design can be ...
