1. Leak Prevention One of the primary functions of a hub oil seal is to prevent oil leaks. If the oil seal fails, the lubricant can escape, leading to insufficient lubrication of the bearings and other critical components. This can result in increased wear and tear, decreased performance, and eventually, catastrophic failure.
The functioning of a pressure relief valve is based on a straightforward principle it opens to relieve excess pressure and closes once the pressure drops back to a safe level. Typically, a PRV consists of several components, including a valve body, a spring, a diaphragm, and a seat. When the system pressure rises above the setpoint determined by the spring's tension, the valve opens, allowing fluid to flow out.
