4.5:1 pilot ratio, ultra-restrictive counterbalance valve

SERIES 1 / CAPACITY: 10 L/min. / CAVITY: T-11A

3-Port Non-vented

NOTE: DATA MAY VARY BY CONFIGURATION. SEE CONFIGURATION SECTION.

Counterbalance valves with pilot assist are meant to control an overrunning load. The check valve allows free flow

from the directional valve (port 2) to the load (port 1) while a direct-acting, pilot-assisted relief valve controls flow

from port 1 to port 2. Pilot assist at port 3 lowers the effective setting of the relief valve at a rate determined by the

pilot ratio.

Other names for this valve include motion control valve and over-center valve.

TECHNICAL FEATURES

Counterbalance valves should be set at least 1.3 times the maximum load induced pressure.

Restrictive valves have no relief capacity other than as a thermal relief.

Turn adjustment clockwise to decrease setting and release load.

Full clockwise setting is less than 200 psi (14 bar).

Backpressure at port 2 adds to the effective relief setting at a ratio of 1 plus the pilot ratio times the backpressure.

Reseat exceeds 85% of set pressure when the valve is standard set. Settings lower than the standard set pressure may result in lower reseat percentages.

Sun counterbalance cartridges can be installed directly into a cavity machined in an actuator housing for added protection and improved stiffness in the circuit.

Two check valve cracking pressures are available. Use the 25 psi (1,7 bar) check unless actuator cavitation is a concern.

This valve has positive seals between all ports.

All 3-port counterbalance, load control, and pilot-to-open check cartridges are physically interchangeable (i.e. same flow path, same cavity for a given frame size).

Corrosion resistant cartridge valves are intended for use in corrosive environments and are identified by the model code suffix /AP for external stainless steel

components, or /LH for external zinc-nickel plated components. See the CONFIGURATION section for all options. For further details, please see the Materials of

Construction page located under TECH RESOURCES.

Incorporates the Sun floating style construction to minimize the possibility of internal parts binding due to excessive installation torque and/or cavity/cartridge

machining variations.
