Product Description
Eliminate power steering fluid overflow and maintain proper system pressure with the PSC SR-VT Anti-Splash Valve (ASV) with Pressure Relief. This innovative component is engineered specifically for PSC remote reservoir steering systems and prevents fluid from escaping through the vented reservoir cap during aggressive driving, off-road articulation, or high-temperature operating conditions. The PSC SR-VT valve keeps the reservoir slightly pressurized at approximately 6 PSI, reducing the chances of cavitation while improving steering pump efficiency and longevity. Designed for PSC remote fluid reservoirs with a vented cap, the valve prevents messy fluid leaks while protecting the system from excessive pressure buildup. The compact aluminum construction makes installation easy in tight engine bays while providing long-lasting durability for extreme off-road and high-performance applications. Whether you're running a hydro assist system, full hydraulic steering, or high-performance power steering setup, the PSC SR-VT Anti-Splash Valve is a critical upgrade to keep your steering system running clean and efficient.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the PSC SR-VT Anti-Splash Valve do?
The SR-VT prevents power steering fluid from escaping through the reservoir vent while maintaining a controlled internal pressure of approximately 6 PSI to improve steering system efficiency.
Why is a pressurized reservoir beneficial for power steering systems?
Maintaining slight pressure inside the reservoir reduces the chance of fluid cavitation in the pump, which improves pump performance and increases system reliability in demanding conditions.
Is the PSC SR-VT required for PSC remote reservoirs?
While not mandatory, the SR-VT is highly recommended for PSC remote reservoir systems to prevent fluid loss and maintain optimal pressure levels during off-road or high-performance use.
Does the SR-VT include installation hardware?
The valve itself is included. Some installations may require the PSC SR-VLK Vent Line Kit to properly connect the valve to the reservoir vent line.
What steering systems benefit most from this valve?
Hydraulic assist steering systems and full hydraulic steering setups benefit most from the SR-VT because these systems generate higher temperatures and pressure fluctuations.
