Spool valves provide consistent and
accurate control of pressure, regardless
of flow variations.
The hydraulically balanced spool is
controlled by an integral pilot valve.
With a narrow differential between
cracking pressure and full flow, these
valves are ideal for systems requiring
constant actuator force.
Some models are available with integral
reverse free-flow check valves.
SPECIFICATIONS
Mounting
8800 Series, Line Connected.
P8800 Series, Subplate Mounted.
Rated Flow
Size 03:
Nominal, 15 U.S. gpm (57 L/min).
Maximum, 20 U.S. gpm (76 L/min).
Size 06:
Nominal, 40 U.S. gpm (151 L/min).
Maximum, 60 U.S. gpm (227 L/min).
Size 10:
Nominal, 90 U.S. gpm (341 L/min).
Maximum, 150 U.S. gpm (568 L/min).
Rated Pressure
Standard: 3000 psi (210 bar).
HP Option: 5000 psi (350 bar).
See Typical Model Code on page 12
for availability.
Pressure Adjustment
Standard Pressure Range:
100 to 3000 psi (7 to 210 bar).
HP Option:
100 to 5000 psi (7 to 350 bar).
LP Option:
50 to 1000 psi (4 to 70 bar).
LLP Option:
40 to 500 psi (3 to 35 bar).
Pressure is manually set by turning the
maximum pressure adjustment (knurled
knob or optional handwheel). Turning
clockwise increases pressure. The setting
is held by a locknut.
ELECTRIC VENT OPTION
Size 10 models are available with an
electric vent option (normally-open,
EO; or normally-closed, EC). Pressure is
automatically controlled by an integral
Dynex D03 valve.
APPLICATION NOTES
Standard Seals
All valves use Fluorocarbon (Viton
®
or Fluorel
®
) or equivalent. EPR
(Ethylene-Propylene Rubber) is also
available as an option.
Fluid Recommendations
Viscosity: 50 to 1500 SUS
(7 to 325 cSt).
Filtration
Use filtration to provide fluid which
meets ISO cleanliness level 19/17/14
(ISO Code 4406) or cleaner.
Adequate filtration is especially critical
for sliding spool valves held in one
position for long periods, subject to
system pressure.
Silting may cause spool valves to stick
and not properly shift. Valves should be
cycled periodically.
Pressure Surges
Consistent with standard practice,
the system should be protected from
pressure surges, which can affect the
shifting of any spool valve. In systems
with multiple valves, a separate line to
tank, or to another low pressure line, is
recommended.
