Pipe rupture safety valves prevent uncontrolled cylinder movement in the event of a pipe or hose rupture. In some countries, pipe rupture valves are required by law when load or lifting work is carried out with a construction machine. They are used to position a boom accurately and stably and enable a uniform motion sequence. Pipe rupture safety valves can compensate for leakages at sliders in main controls of older construction machines. WESSEL pipe rupture safety devices are characterized by very good sensitivity and a very direct transmission behavior of the joystick movement. They are also always free of leakage oil.
The pipe rupture safety device in the standard version can be used for most standard applications.
