Abstract
A pressure limiter is connected fluid-tight between a common rail having an accumulator for storing high-pressure fuel delivered from a high-pressure fuel feed pump and a relief line. In a valve body of this pressure limiter, a damper chamber is provided on the downstream side of the sliding bore, for housing a large diameter portion of the piston and holding fuel, to thereby control the downward speed of the ball valve and the piston when the ball valve and the piston are shifted to the valve closing side by the force of the spring. Thus it becomes possible to prolong the downward-moving time of the ball valve and the piston.
