So far, we may not realize that the role of the radiator cap in the engine cooling system is more than just an ordinary cover for your heavy equipment unit. However, the case is different with the radiator cap. This component is responsible for maintaining ideal pressure in the engine cooling system, not only for avoiding radiator/coolant spillage. How does it work?
The component of the heavy equipment unit that looks trivial but in fact is quite important is the radiator cap. The radiator of the heavy equipment unit has a very vital function in the running of the machine's prime working process. Machine unit radiator components are always equipped with caps.
Vacuum valve radiator cover
The function of this radiator cap has a major role in maintaining the radiator of heavy equipment so that the engine runs optimally. One of the most basic functions is to cover the radiator fluid filling hole or commonly known as the vacuum valve.
The radiator is a heavy equipment component that is very influential in adjusting the temperature inside. This performance keeps the heavy equipment unit at normal temperature and increases the productivity of the heavy equipment unit. We are PT.

The radiator needs to be in consistent condition so it doesn't leak and cause the water in the radiator to spill. In this case the radiator cap has a big role. This cap serves to keep the radiator fluid in order to remain in the filling hole.
It is important to keep the coolant in the radiator from spilling. If the radiator coolant water decreases, it can cause the temperature and pressure of the heavy equipment unit to increase so that the engine will overheat.
The radiator cap will transfer heat from the engine unit to the air. This process will involve the radiator circulation system. Heat that can be easily released into the air also has an adverse effect on heavy equipment units, and one of them is the pressure imbalance in the engine.
Before being totally released into the air, the heat absorbed from the engine is properly maintained by the radiator cap. This process certainly helps the radiator in an effort to keep the heavy equipment unit cool.
Pressure Regulator in the Radiator System (pressure valve)
Maximum engine performance is of course influenced by the condition of the prime components. This condition will cause the pressure generated by the engine so it needs a pressure regulator to keep it balanced.
This function can be carried out by the radiator cap. The radiator cap will regulate the pressure in the radiator system so that the right pressure is obtained and is proportional to the engine capacity. The capacity of the machine itself will be shown in bar units.
