Relief Valve. Pre-set at 1,500 to 1,700 psi. Non-adjustable. 1/8" male NPTF inlet.

Description & Features

Factory pre-set to a fixed range of 1,500 to 1,700 psi, this non-adjustable Relief Valve from SPX Hydraulic Technologies provides a straightforward, economical means of protecting hydraulic circuits against over-pressurization. The non-adjustable design eliminates the need for field calibration, making it well-suited for applications where a consistent, predetermined pressure limit is required.

Rated for a maximum flow of 5 gpm, the valve connects via a 1/8" male NPTF inlet, allowing direct in-line installation in compact hydraulic systems. It is compatible with single- and double-acting cylinder circuits and is cataloged under SPX High Force Hydraulics Products. Alternate catalog reference C1KN18 may be used to cross-reference this part.

Question by: Norm W on Sep 13, 2025, 3:53 PM
got a fixed-pressure setup, so i dont need to mess with adjustments. what pressure does this relief valve crack at?
Answer by: Customer Support on Sep 15, 2025, 6:26 AM
Factory setting is fixed in the 1,500 to 1,700 psi range, and it is non-adjustable so it stays at that predetermined limit for circuit over-pressure protection.
