Load control valve comes with three options
Sterling Hydraulics has a pilot-operated poppet-type load control valve available in three versions offering different pilot ratios for diverse applications.
The R04G3 is suitable for switching flow rates up to 58 litre/min between ports 2 and 3, at a maximum pressure drop of 20bar in the fully open state.
It is activated by venting port 1, giving continuous drain flow from port 3 via a pilot orifice in the spool.
The venting can also be remotely controlled by the use of a small solenoid cartridge or manual dump valve.
The R04G3 is extremely versatile and can also be used as a pressure regulator with main stage remote control provided by a pilot relief valve or a proportional valve.
Suitable to fit the industry common cavity, the RO4G3 has hardened working parts for maximum durability as well as zinc plated external parts for extra protection.
