HYDRAULIC VALVES It is the circuit element that determines the direction of the hydraulic fluid, changes its direction when desired, and controls the pressure and flow of the fluid.
DUTIES OF HYDRAULIC VALVES
It opens and closes the path of the fluid. It changes the direction the fluid will go. It sends the fluid to the tank. It adjusts the operating speed of the receivers by controlling the flow rate of the fluid. It protects circuit elements against high pressures. It sends the fluid whose pressure rises to the tank. By controlling the pressure of the fluid, it ensures that the circuit elements operate at certain pressures. It controls the pressure, flow and direction of the fluid at certain time intervals. Some valves can perform one or more of the tasks listed above. DIRECTIONAL CONTROL VALVES
It is the valves that determine when and which path the fluid should follow in hydraulic circuits. They change the flow path at will; They open and close the flow path when desired.
SCHEMATIC DESCRIPTION OF DIRECTIONAL CONTROL VALVES
Each position of the valve should be indicated by a square. The flow directions of the fluid are indicated by arrows. Closed roads are marked with a horizontal line. Valve connections are indicated by dashes. Marking of valve positions; valve positions are marked with letters from left to right. For three-position valves, the center position is indicated by 0. Stainless Hydraulic Valves
Hydraulic valves are mostly exposed to outdoor conditions. Hydraulic systems are sensitive elements against solid particles, air and water. In order to increase corrosion resistance of hydraulic valves, valve bodies must be made of stainless steel or their outer surfaces must be protected with zinc-nickel plating.
All of Hidroman products are Zink – Nickel coated. Zink-Nickel coating provides much more corrosion resistance than conventional galvanic zinc and phosphate coatings. In many applications, it provides a performance close to the corrosion resistance of 304 quality stainless steel materials. Thanks to this coating, the life of the fastener in the system you use will be longer. In systems using Zink-Nickel coated fasteners, maintenance costs and time spent on maintenance are saved.
