Description
The Check and Metering H-valve for excavators prevents uncontrolled lowering of the actuator in case of hose failure and provides the load holding when the joystick is released in neutral position.
Lifting operations are performed with very limited pressure losses across the valve.
The valve includes also a pressure relief stage (1) which prevents any overloads into the cylinder.
The actuation of the valve is performed by operating the hydraulic pilot stage (2) with a low pilot pressure.
Based on the two stages opening principle (2, 3), the valve provides flow metering from the cylinder to the main control valve.
For safety reasons, the valve is directly mounted on the cylinder flange and provides a compact installation with the positioning of all hydraulic ports on the back surface.
The valve is also equipped with a by-pass function (4) which can be used for emergency boom lowering in case of pilot pressure failure.
