Got a harvester sitting idle cause the pressure valve gave out, will this RV1-8 unit hold up to 5,000 psi on the system?
Question by: Neil S on Mar 3, 2026, 5:52 PM
Yeah, 350 bar is the rated maximum system pressure for this valve, which works out to right at 5,000 psi. For harvester hydraulics running at or below that ceiling, this is a solid fit. The poppet-style construction on these RV1-8 valves tends to hold consistent pressure regulation without a whole lot of fuss over time, which matters when you're trying to get back up and running quick.

Will this handle dirty hydraulic fluid okay, or does it need super clean stuff?

Designed for mobile and industrial applications, the Vickers RV1 8 S 0 50/ pressure control valve is often found in demanding environments like harvesters and refuse haulers. That said, keeping your hydraulic fluid clean will always extend the life of any valve.
