Used to control pressure in hydraulic systems, being installed in valve blocks or distribution plates, providing precise and reliable control of fluid pressure.
Pressure limiting valves are designed to limit fluid pressure to a certain maximum value. When the pressure reaches or exceeds this predetermined value, the valve opens an escape route, allowing excess fluid to return to the reservoir. This helps protect the hydraulic system from excessive pressure that could cause component damage.
Pressure reducing valves, on the other hand, are designed to reduce fluid pressure to a value lower than the inlet value. They are often used to provide controlled pressure in certain parts of the hydraulic system, such as to power cylinders or other actuators that require reduced pressure compared to the inlet pressure.
They are available in different sizes, from CETOP NG6 to CETOP NG32, to meet the requirements of different hydraulic systems. They can be installed in valve blocks or distribution plates, allowing customized configuration of the hydraulic system according to the specific needs of the application.
Additionally, modular pressure reducing and limiting valves can also be available in the form of cartridges, which are designed to be installed in specific cavities in the valve blocks. These cartridges offer a compact, easily replaceable solution for pressure control in hydraulic systems.
