2CFP60 Flow Regulator - Adjustable, priority type pressure compensated

2CFP60 - Flow regulator

Adjustable, priority type pressure compensated 4-60 L/min (1-16 USgpm) • 350 Bar (5000 psi)

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 adjustable 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.
