SCX180

Product catalog summary
Overview: The SCX180 is a closed-center, load-sensing, sectional control valve designed for hydraulic systems, part of the SCX Platform, which includes SCX120, SCX180, and SCX300, supporting applications from 120-300 lpm.
Key Features: The valve minimizes pressure drops, offers multi-function flow sharing, and pressure compensation. It supports manual, hydraulic, electrohydraulic, and pneumatic controls, with low leakage and compatibility with various pumps. It includes optional priority inlet for steering and multiple outlet options, designed for durability and cost-effectiveness.
Specifications: The valve has a section width of 48.00 mm, standard port sizes, and operates at rated inlet and section flows of 230 lpm and 180 lpm, respectively. It supports operating pressures up to 345 bar and a fluid temperature range of -29 to +104°C.
Applications: Suitable for various machinery including tractor loader backhoes, excavators, and telehandlers.
Technical Description: Utilizes the IsoComp™ method for load sensing, preventing function droop, and ensuring flow sharing. It includes a load sense relief valve and auxiliary relief valves for pressure limiting.
Assembly Options: Offers various inlet, spool, and outlet section assembly options tailored to hydraulic system needs.
Standard Features of Spool Section Assemblies: Includes work ports, relief valve cavities, and independent load hold check and compensator spool.
Control Options for 3-Position Spool Section Assemblies: Available in manual, hydraulic, pneumatic, and electrohydraulic operations.
Additional Options for 3-Position Section Assemblies: Includes auxiliary relief valve assemblies, spool stroke limiter, and adjustable flow control assembly.
Tie Rod Kits: The 61522 series includes standard tie rod parts for SCX180 valve assemblies, supporting stacks of eight to ten sections.
Spool Section Assembly Ordering Nomenclature: Provides spool codes for various flow rates and spool types.
3-Position Section Assemblies: Options include manual, hydraulically pilot operated, and electrohydraulically pilot operated assemblies.
Outlet Section Assembly Options: Offers outlets with EH machining for pilot pressure supply.
Load Sense Relief Valve and Drain Regulator Assembly: Standard load sense relief valve with a setting range of 62 - 300 bar.
Surge Work Port Relief Valve Assembly: Includes a relief valve assembly with anti-void function.
Pressure Reducing Valve Assembly for Pilot Pressure Supply: Reduces inlet pressure for pilot supply.
Electrohydraulic Pressure Reducing Valves (EPRV): IP69 rated, with a maximum supply pressure of 250 bar.
Adjustable Flow Control Kit: Regulates flow from 60 lpm to 150 lpm.
End Mechanism Kits: Available for various operation types.
Open Center vs Closed Center Systems: Discusses efficiency gains in transitioning from open to closed center systems, highlighting differences in pump and valve configurations.
Post-Compensated vs Pre-Compensated Systems: Compares post-pressure compensated systems, which offer excellent flow sharing, to pre-compensated systems, which prioritize lowest loaded functions.
HUSCO Overview: HUSCO International specializes in hydraulic and electrohydraulic products, focusing on innovation and efficiency with a global presence.

SCX180 is a closed-center, load-sensing, sectional control valve with post-pressure compensation that offers a wide range of control options and flexibility. SCX180 can be used with fixed displacement pumps or with pressure-compensated, load-sensing variable displacement pumps and can be configured with one to ten working sections. The load sense (LS) pressure in an SCX180 valve is generated by the compensator spool using the HUSCO patented IsoComp™ method to copy the LS signal using oil supplied by the pump instead of stealing oil from the function. Using pump oil to generate the LS signal prevents...

The SCX180 3-position spool is interchangeable between manual, pilot operated and electrohydraulically operated section assemblies. Each spool has a threaded hole on both ends, allowing any spool to be a left-handed or right-handed spool. Flow rates are based on a 15 bar (215 psi) pump to LS differential pressure. Each spool is designed for the same flow rates for both work ports.
