PV70-31 Proportional Flow Control Cartridge, (PV70-31)
A solenoid operated, electrically-variable, three-port, pressure-compensated, spool-type, normally open when de-energized, proportional flow control valve. It can be used as a priority-type flow regulator with pressure-compensated, regulated and bypass flow. It can also be used as a restrictive-type two-way, pressure-compensated flow regulator when the bypass line (port ➁) is blocked.
Product Operation
The PV70-31 will regulate flow out of port ➂ regardless of system working pressure. With increasing current applied to the solenoid, the PV70-31 will decrease output flow.
Note: When used as a bypass flow control in applications where the priority flow port
will be blocked by external valving, bypass pressure drop will increase unless a small
amount of leakage is provided for the priority port. Consult factory.
Operation of Manual Override: To Engage: Turn clockwise approximately 1 turn to reach start point. Continue
another approximately 5 turns to full shift.To Disengage: Turn counterclockwise approximately 6 turns to positive stop.
Product Features
• Excellent linearity and hysteresis.
