FLOW CONTROL AND RELIEF VALVES

Product catalog summary
Flow Control and Relief Valves Overview
The document provides detailed specifications and operational guidelines for flow control and relief valves, specifically models FBG-03, FBG-06, and FBG-10. These valves are designed for sub-plate mounting and are used to control flow and pressure in hydraulic systems. They are compatible with various hydraulic fluids, including water-glycol, phosphate ester, and petroleum-based oils.

Specifications
The valves are available in different sizes (03, 06, 10) with maximum metered flow rates of 125, 250, and 500 L/min respectively. They operate at a maximum pressure of 25 MPa (3630 PSI). The design standards comply with Japanese, European, and North American standards.

Operational Features
The valves maintain an inlet pressure 0.6 MPa higher than the load pressure to save power. They include a temperature compensator for stable flow control regardless of oil temperature. Flow and pressure adjustments are facilitated by an adjustment knob with digital scales.

Installation and Maintenance
Sub-plates are available for mounting, and the surface should be well-machined if not using sub-plates. Flow and pressure adjustments require loosening locking screws and nuts, with specific instructions for clockwise and anti-clockwise adjustments. The document emphasizes the importance of controlling hydraulic fluid contamination and recommends using a 25 μm or finer line filter.

Performance Characteristics
Graphs illustrate the relationship between flow rate, load pressure, and dial position for each valve model. The valves are designed to maintain stable performance across a range of pressures and flow rates.

Spare Parts and Seal Kits
A list of spare parts and seal kits is provided, with specific part numbers for each valve model. The document advises careful replacement of seals following the operator's manual instructions.

Hydraulic Fluids and Recommendations
The document outlines the types of hydraulic fluids suitable for use with these valves, including specific recommendations for viscosity and temperature ranges. It also highlights the need for maintaining fluid cleanliness to prevent valve breakdowns.

FLOW CONTROL AND RELIEF VALVES-1

FLOW CONTROL AND RELIEF VALVES FBG-03/06/10 (3/8, 3/4, 1-1/4) Sub-plate Mounting FLOW CONTROLS Model Number Designation / Specifications Up to 25 MPa (3630 PSI), 500 L/min (132 U.S.GPM) These valves are flow control valves having the functions of metre-in type flow control and pressure control. Inlet pressure is always maintained 0.6 MPa (87 PSI) higher than the load pressure. In a conventional flow control method, power consumption is wasteful since the pump pressure goes up to the preset system pressure regardless of the load pressure. While, the power saving valves control the pump pressure by maintaining a differential pressure as little as 0.6 MPa (87 PSI) against the load pressure, thereby, the power can be remarkably saved. Moreover, with lthe temperature compensator, a stable flow control can be made regardless of oil temperature. Setting and repeat setting of flow can be made easily with an adjustment knob having digital scales.
