Installation and Part Numbers:
- Various part numbers are provided for different minimum cracking pressures ranging from 800 to 4700 psid, with corresponding flow rates and shutoff pressures.
Lohms Laws (Liquids):
- The Lohm is a measure of flow resistance, analogous to the Ohm in electrical systems.
- Lohm calculations compensate for discharge coefficients and dimensional tolerances.
- A 1 Lohm restriction allows a flow of 100 gallons per minute of water with a pressure drop of 25 psi at 80°F.
Liquid Flow Formula:
- Formulas are provided to extend Lohm laws to various liquids, considering density and viscosity.
- Volumetric and gravimetric flow units are detailed with pressure units in psi, bar, and kPa.

product data sheet 281 ZERO LEAK PRI® The Lee Company's new 281 Zero Leak ■ PRI (Pressure Relief Insert) is the latest addition to Lee's line of miniature ■ pressure relief valves. This new valve is ideal for thermal relief and low flow hydraulic pressure relief applications ■ where zero leakage is needed. ■ The cracking pressure is preset at the factory with capabilities ranging from ■ 800 psid up to 4700 psid. Typical flow ■ rates range from a few mL's per minute for thermal relief applications, and up to 0.5 GPM for low flow pressure relief applications. Each Zero Leak PRI is 100% tested and inspected to ensure reliable, consistent performance. Please contact your local Lee Sales Engineer for assistance in solving your zero leak relief valve needs.

LOHMS LAWS (liquids) Every engineer will be interested in our simple system of defining the fluid resistance of Lee hydraulic components. Just as the OHM is used in the electrical industry, we find that we can use a liquid OHM or "Lohm" to good advantage on all hydraulic computations. When using the Lohm system, you can forget about coefficients of discharge and dimensional tolerances on drilled holes. These factors are automatically compensated for in the Lohm calculations, and confirmed by testing each component to establish flow tolerances. The resistance to flow of any fluid control component...
