The relief valve is of a
plun ger type. The valve re gu-
lates the maximum pre ssu re of lubricatio n oil being
sent
to the e ngin e .
When the pressure of oil from the oil p u mp exceeds
the specified
value, the valve o pens to relieve the
excess flow
.
The excess o il is ret u rned t o the suct ion side of the
oil pump
