What is the Vortex® valve and how does it work?

Hardigg Storm Cases, FAQs, Frequently Asked Questions
The Vortex® Valve is an automatic pressure relief valve that regulates air with changing altitude and temperature, while keeping water out.

How does the 3-Position Valve work?

How does this bypass valve work?

Conrad's RSX tuning Page: Tuning from existing Hondaata cali...
It is a butterfly valve like the one in the throttle body (see picture). The default is closed. When vacuum is high (idle-cruising) an actuator opens the bypass valve so that intake air bypasses the compressor. When accelerating, vacuum decreases and the bypass valve instantly closes. Intake air now goes through the compressor, building boost. More power means more fuel means larger injectors. However, in order to pass CARB, the base kit had to use the stock injectors.

How does the helium release valve on my Seamaster work? Can I open it on land?

Omega FAQ - TimeZone
The helium release valve works by letting helium out of your watch, and nothing else in. This only comes in handy when you are in a helium-saturated environment such as a dive bell. You can open it on land, but make sure you screw it back down before you submerge it in water. Leaving it open while the watch is under water can let water into the watch. Note: This system is consistant with the Seamaster Professional Chronograph - Chronometer as well...

How does a pressure relief valve work?

Elektror - Wir machen Luft aktiv: FAQ
The pressure relief valve is a spring-supported valve that opens when the limit pressure is reached, thereby discharging excess air via the bypass. The pressure relief valve protects the side channel blower from overload.

What is a CAI bypass valve for? Does it work?

w w w . v a n c o u v e r c i v i c s . c o m
In the event of the CAI filter being completely submerged in water (eg: deep puddle) this gives the CAI a seperate "bypass" area to draw air into the engine, without taking in water to the engine - resulting in hydrolock (your engine is pooched due to ingesting water). Cheap insurance for CAI.

How can the valve work without a dedicated mechanism?

LIM Technology - Frequently Asked Questions
The pressure generated by the supercharger accumulates in the intake manifold. When the piston, near the end of the power stroke exposes the exhaust ports, pressure in the cylinder immediately declines to less than that of the intake manifold, so the valve opens against a mild spring, just from the pressure differential. The piston is still approaching bottom dead center (BDC) so yet more air is attracted to the growing volume of the cylinder.

What does the PCV valve do?

Auto Mechanics", "Auto Repairs","Mechanic Talk", "Certified ...
The PCV (Positive Crankcase Ventilation) valve (along with the Breather Element) re-circulates unburned gases back into the engine to be re-burned, cutting air pollution.

Why does my valve drip?

Ritchie Industries: Automatic Waterers, Commander Series
This can be one of several problems. Over time, the neoprene disk on the valve plunger can build up with mineral deposits. These deposits will not let the plunger make a tight seal. Turning the disk over or installing a new disk will solve this problem. A sinking float or a loose or stripped wing nut or thumbscrew can also cause a unit to overflow. This problem can be fixed with new components.
