NOTE: DATA MAY VARY BY CONFIGURATION. SEE CONFIGURATION SECTION.
Flow dividers are sliding-spool, pressure-compensated devices used to split oil flow to two different branches of a
circuit in a designated ratio. These valves are suitable for applications that use the following: unidirectional
hydraulic motors, hydraulic cylinders where flow division in one direction only is required, and multiple circuits that
are serviced from one pump supply.

TECHNICAL FEATURES
All flow divider and divider/combiner cartridges are physically interchangeable (i.e. same flow path, same cavity for a given frame size).
Operating characteristics cause the leg of the circuit with the greatest load to receive the higher percentage of flow in dividing mode. If a rigid mechanism is used to
tie actuators together, the lead actuator may pull the lagging actuator and cause it to cavitate.
In applications involving rigid mechanisms between multiple actuators, operating inaccuracy will cause the eventual lock-up of the system. If the mechanical
structure is not designed to allow for the operating inaccuracy inherent in the valve, damage may occur.
In motor circuits, rigid frames or mechanisms that tie motors together, and/or complete mechanical synchronized motion of the output shaft of the motors, either by
wheels to the pavement or sprockets to conveyors, will contribute to cavitation, lock-up and/or pressure intensification.
Variations in speed and lock-up can be attributed to differences in motor displacement, motor leakage, wheel diameter variance and friction of wheels on the driving
surface.
This valve is a divider only; any attempt to flow backwards through the valve is not advised.
Dividers with unequal ratios have the higher flow at port 4.
Below the minimum flow rating there is not enough flow for the valve to modulate. It is effectively a tee. If flow starts at zero and rises, there will be no dividing
control until the flow reaches the minimum rating.
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.
