Description
700 bar
These safety-check valves are used for those applications where pressure drops must be avoided (e.g. holding of a lifted load). Depending on the location in a hydraulic circuit, these valves can have different functions. The model VSM-11 can be directly screwed into the oil port of a hydraulic cylinder and works at this location as a “hose break fuse”. The design of the VSM-21 is suitable for a combination with VHP directional valves.
Operation
After closing the relief valve (hand wheel) the cylinder can be advanced via the by-pass. In direction to the cylinder the valves always have free flow. The built-in check valve ensures that a pressurized cylinder (e.g. a lifted load) is held precisely in stop position. A smooth lowering speed can be adjusted by opening the throttle valve (hand wheel) in order to relieve the pressure. A safety pressure valve protects the cylinder from being overloaded by external loading.
Selection advice
If the valve is to be screwed directly into a hydraulic cylinder, please order model VSM-11. If the valve is to be combined with the directional valve of a power pack, please order model VSM-21.
