Product Description
The rfn7040 is a mechanical oil pressure regulator for piston aircraft engines. It maintains lubrication pressure by diverting excess oil back to the sump using a spring-and-ball valve mechanism housed in a metal body. During cold starts and high-rpm operation, the regulator protects engine bearings and seals by controlling oil flow to critical lubrication points.
Installation and adjustment must follow the applicable engine manufacturer's maintenance manual and FAA-approved procedures. This regulator is essential for engine longevity and safe operation across general aviation and light aircraft powerplants.
