RE 18321-87/07.2017, Bosch Rexroth Oil Control S.p.A.
Description
The valve delivers priority flow, from 0 to max. available, on
demand to port 4, while compensating for load changes
downstream. In neutral, all input flow at 3 is given to the
priority port 4. Pressure at 4 is applied to the spool against
a spring force so that increasing pressure causes increasing
by-pass of input flow to port 2. Load sense pressure at port
1, obtained between the downstream control and the load,
assists the spring, and moves the spool back toward
supplying priority flow. Comparison between priority outlet
and LS pressure seeks a constant differential pressure over
the control valve. As load and flow control change, the
priority flow is increased or decreased to satisfy the
demand establishing that differential.
Logic element, pressure compensator
