RV5-10 Series Pilot-Operated Spool Type Relief Cartridge Valve, 500-5000 PSI Screw Adjustment

Description & Features

The RV5-10 Series Pilot-Operated Spool Type Relief Cartridge Valve offers a broad adjustable range of 500-5000 PSI with screw adjustment. Designed by Danfoss Hydraulics, this valve meets the demands of mobile and industrial applications, including harvesters and refuse haulers. With a maximum operating pressure of 5000 PSI, it ensures reliable performance under high pressure conditions.

This model, optimized for effective pressure control, maintains a maximum flow rate of 30 GPM. Its compact, economical design integrates smoothly into systems requiring a screw-in cartridge valve. Featuring Buna-N seals and a recommended filtration level of 18/16/13 microns, this product ensures durability and efficacy in demanding environments.

Efficiency is further enhanced through its pilot-operated functionality, allowing for smooth and quiet operation. The valve leakage is maintained at a minimal 114 cc/min, ensuring precise control. It requires a machined cavity or housing, designated as cavity size C-10-2, for installation.

Product Questions & Answers (2)

Question by: Larry C on Jan 24, 2026, 11:07 AM

runs continuous duty on a refuse hauler all day long, will this valve hold up to that kind of use without giving me grief?

Answer by: Customer Support on Jan 25, 2026, 6:14 PM

Continuous duty is exactly what this cartridge is built around. The RV5-10 is a pilot-operated spool type, which means it handles sustained pressure loads more smoothly and with less heat buildup than a poppet-style relief. Rated to 5000 PSI and 30 GPM, it's well within the demands of a refuse hauler running full shifts. One thing worth noting: if you're running above 3000 PSI, you'll need a steel housing for the cavity. Aluminum won't cut it at those pressures.

Question by: Denise Y on Dec 21, 2025, 9:51 PM

What kind of applications does this relief valve work for? Like, what kind of equipment?

Answer by: Customer Support on Dec 23, 2025, 12:58 PM

These valves are often found on mobile equipment like harvesters and refuse trucks, plus various industrial setups.
