A pressure relief valve for a pump includes a recess in its surface adjacent the high pressure side of the pump. The recess acts as a trap to capture and retain debris particles in the working fluid. By capturing and retaining the debris particles in the recess, jamming of the pressure relief valve in an open position can be avoided. Preferably, the upper edge of the recess includes a chamfered edge which enhances the likelihood of the debris particles entering the recess. Also preferably, the recess can be magnetized, or a magnetic member can be inserted into the recess, to enhance the capture and retention of magnetic debris particles in the recess.
