Description:
An engine oil pressure check valve, also known as an oil pressure relief valve, is a vital component in internal combustion engines. The engine oil pressure check valve is typically located in the engine's oil pump or oil filter housing. Its primary function is to regulate and maintain the oil pressure within the engine lubrication system. It achieves this by controlling the flow of oil based on the engine's oil pressure. The check valve consists of a spring-loaded valve mechanism that opens and closes in response to oil pressure changes. This prevents the oil pressure from exceeding safe levels and helps protect the engine from damage.
