PV16-23 Proportional Flow Control Cartridge, (PV16-23)
A solenoid-operated, two-way, normally closed, electro-proportional, hydraulic cartridge valve intended for use with an external pressure compensator or load-sensing-style pump control.
Product Operation
When de-energized, the PV16-23 blocks flow from ➀ to ➁. With increasing current applied to the solenoid, output flow from ➀ to ➁ will increase proportionally.The PV16-23 is intended for use with an operating differential across the valve
of 7 bar to 11 bar (100 psi to 160 psi). The set value of the external pressure
compensator or pump control must provide for both the valve operating differential,
as well as for system losses between the compensator and the PV16-23 at the
maximum required flow.
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 characteristics.
• Hardened spool and cage for long life.
• Optional coil voltages and terminations.
• Effi cient wet armature construction.
