FLOW RESTRICTOR VALVE
SERIES 50
HYDRAULIC SYMBOLS
OPERATING PRINCIPLEMOUNTING INTERFACE
— This is a non-compensated flow control valve with a check
valve for reverse free flow. It is made in the modular
version and with mounting surface according to the ISO
4401 (CETOP RP 121 H) standards; it can be assembled
quickly without use of pipes, but using only suitable tie-
rods or bolts, thus forming compact modular groups.
— It is also available as a reversible valve (G* versions).
Meter-in or meter-out control depending on the way of
assembly the valve on the OR subplate.
— All the configurations have an incorporated check valve
that allows reverse free flow (cracking pressure of 0,5 bar).
— It is normally supplied with a hexagonal head adjustment
screw.
CONFIGURATIONS (see hydraulic symbols table)
— “SA”: control of the flow exiting from the actuator on line A .
— “SB”: control of the flow exiting from the actuator on line B.
— “D”: Allows an indipendent flow control exiting from the two chambers of the actuator. (Standard)
— “RD”: Allows an indipendent flow control entering in the two chambers of the actuator.
— “G*”: Reversible valve. See at par. 1
