Variable Priority Flow Dividers with Built in Relief or Check Valve RV, CK & M Series

Aimed at mobile and industrial applications the RV, CK & M Series can be used for controlling hydraulic motor and cylinder speeds by manually adjusting the flow rate. 

Variable priority flow dividers split a single input (PR) flow into a priority (REG) flow and an excess or by-pass (BP) flow which can be returned directly to the oil reservoir or used to power a second system. This is possible due to the valve’s adaptive pressure compensation characteristics meaning both the priority and bypass flows can be used to drive separate circuits, even under varying loads. In many instances this dispenses with the need for another pump to operate a second system.

The RV series have an adjustable built in relief valve which protects the valve from overpressure. The relief valve should not be used as a system relief. The CK series have a built-in check valve which allows reverse flow on the Priority line. The M series offer a more compact solution by utilising a manifold mounted body.
