Pipe burst valve for Demag AC 615

The pipe burst valve, part number 32353040, serves as a safety mechanism for the lift cylinder assembly on the Demag AC 615 crane. This hydraulic component monitors the flow within the lift circuit and is engineered to close automatically if it detects an abrupt pressure drop or excessive flow rate, which typically indicates a ruptured hose or line. By isolating the cylinder, it maintains the load in a suspended position, preventing sudden movement during a hydraulic failure.

This specific valve is compatible with the Demag AC 615 model. It integrates directly into the crane's hydraulic system to maintain operational safety standards. The component is designed to respond to flow velocity thresholds to ensure rapid activation when a line break occurs.

Pipe burst valves are installed in hydraulic systems to provide a fail-safe against catastrophic loss of pressure. By reacting to the speed of fluid movement rather than just static pressure, these valves distinguish between normal operational flow and the rapid discharge associated with a line breach. This functionality protects the equipment and surrounding work area from the hazards of a sudden load drop.
