Description
A constant priority flow, regardless of system pressures, is established from E to P, while a minimum pressure differential of appr. 5 bar (70 psi) exists between the two ports. While the regulated priority flow from P is used in the priority circuit, the flow supplied to E in excess of priority is by-passed to B port and can be sent to power other actuators. Priority flow can be varied from closed to the nominal maximum rating of the valve. Reverse flow from P to E is limited by the selected opening of the restrictor and is not pressure compensated. Reverse flow from B is not permitted.
