As long as one doesn't adjust the lock nut thereby adjusting the calibration, isn't it legal to mount it anywhere in the primary pneumatic circiut? The text of <R91> follows.

When we mounted this year's compresser it didn't have the relief valve mounted on it from the factory so we used an adaptor and put it on the side that allowed us more room for the rest of the fixutures. I'll change it if need be but need someone to point out my mis-reading of the quoted rules  |
You provided the answer in your own citation. Specifically, see the third sentence of Rule <R95>:
Quote:
|
<R95> Teams are not allowed to adjust the 125-psi relief valve. The valve has been calibrated prior to shipping. The relief valve must be attached to the compressor. If the compressor is not used on the ROBOT, then an additional relief valve must be obtained and included in the primary pneumatic circuit on the ROBOT (see Rule <R91>).

To me, that makes it very clear that you can not take the relief valve and "pipe it somewhere else." In addition, this exact topic has also been addressed in
this Q&A system answer.
