Description
These valves are priority flow
regulators. The flow (and
actuator speed) will be largely
independent of the load and
the pressure conditions.
If used to regulate flow from
a fixed supply, for example
a standard gear or piston
pump, the valve will pass the
required flow and any surplus
flow will be diverted to the
bypass port. The bypass flow
may be used for a secondary
circuit whether the secondary
pressure requirement is higher
or lower than the regulated
pressure.
The valve inlet pressure will
be approximately 7 bar (100
psi) more than the regulated
or bypass pressure, whichever
is higher.
Operation
Inlet flow passes through the
fixed orifice and the radial
holes in the spool/sleeve
assembly then out of the
regulated port. The pressure
drop across the orifice is
sensed at each end of the
spool, producing a force
which, at the required flow
rate, overcomes the spring
force. The resultant movement
of the spool regulates the flow
by opening the radial valve
ports to the bypass port and
closing the regulated flow
ports.
The valve will pass flow in
the return direction but this
is restricted by the flow path
through the control orifice.
Features
Cartridge construction gives
versatility of application. A
valve may be fitted into a
line body, a custom designed
Hydraulic Integrated Circuit or
directly into a cylinder or other
actuator. Leakproof adjust
screw gives easy, accurate
adjustment to required flow
setting. Hardened and ground
working parts give accurate
flow control and long working
life.
