EC16-34 Pressure Compensator, Load Holding (EC16-34)
A screw-in, cartridge-style, load sense, pressure-compensator hydraulic valve with built-in damping and load-holding features for use in gravity-lowering circuits.
Product Operation
The EC16-34 is designed to be used in combination with a flow control valve for
lowering and holding a load. With inlet flow at port ➁, port ➂ will deliver requred flow regardless of load pressure at ➁. Port ➀ of the compensator must be connected to the outlet of a flow control valve that is connnected to the tank.
Product Features
• Hardened spool and cage for long life.
• Hardened seat for low-leakage load-holding capability.
• Quiet, modulated response.
• Industry common cavity.
