The Bosch Rexroth SL10GA3-4X/M (R900454520) is a high-quality isolator valve designed for subplate mounting or threaded connection, suitable for applications requiring leakage-free blocking of one actuator port even during extended periods of inactivity. This valve is characterized by its robust housing, seat poppet, compression spring, and control spool. It features optional preopening as a ball seat valve and allows flow from A to B without external pilot pressure while ensuring hydraulic tightness in the opposite direction. The SL10GA3-4X/M operates under the condition that pA > pB, with the cracking pressure determined by the compression spring. The presence of a sufficient pilot pressure at port X displaces the control spool towards version A, lifting the seat poppet from its seat for active free flow in both directions. The valve's functionality is influenced by pressure ratios and area ratios on both sides of the control spool or seat poppet. This model comes in two versions: Version A with preopening and Version B without preopening. Version A offers secure unloading even at low pilot pressures due to its two-stage setup and dampened decompression feature that minimizes switching shocks. Conversely, Version B may experience sudden unloading of included pressure volume, potentially causing premature wear and noise due to switching shocks. Additionally, this valve is available in Type SL..PB.X... with pilot oil return but without preopening and can be modified from type SV to type SL through plug exchange. The SL10GA3-4X/M also offers a version U with a built-on directional valve for direct control over the seat poppet against system pressure. Designed for various industrial applications, this isolator valve supports multiple cracking pressures and comes with check valve installation sets available separately. Its corrosion-protected design ensures longevity even under harsh conditions. It adheres to ISO porting patterns NG06, NG10, NG16 for ease of integration into existing systems. With capabilities for attachment to directional spool valves or directional seat valves optionally, it offers versatility in system design while providing maximum operating pressures up to bar and maximum flow rates up to l/min as specified by order requirements.

For subplate mounting Porting pattern according to ISO 5781-06-07-0-00 (NG10), ISO 5781-08-10-0-00 (NG20), ISO 5781-10-13-0-00 (NG32) For threaded connection For the leakage-free blocking of one actuator port Attachment possibility for directional spool valve or directional seat valve, optional Pilot oil return, external Version with pre-opening for dampened release, optional Various cracking pressures, optional Check valve installation sets available individually Corrosion-protected design

The isolator valve type SL is a releasable check valve for subplate mounting or threaded connection. It is used for the leakage-free blocking of one actuator port, also in case of longer standstill times.

The valve basically consists of a housing (1), a seat poppet (2), a compression spring (3), a control spool (4) as well as of an optional pre-opening as ball seat valve (5).

The seat valve can be flown through from A to B without external pilot pressure. In the opposite direction, the seat valve closes hydraulically tight.

Condition: pA > pB + cracking pressure (compression spring).

A sufficiently high pilot pressure at port X moves the control spool (4) in the direction of the ball seat valve (5) (version "A") and pushes the seat poppet (2) out of its seat. This allows for a free flow in both directions (active keeping open).

In order to ensure that the seat valve actively opens, the pressure ratios on both sides of the control spool (4) are just as important as the area ratios at the control spool (4) or seat poppet (2).

This results in the versions with pre-opening "A" and without pre-opening "B” for type SL (small annulus area). A4 (9).

Version "A" (with pre-opening)

This valve is provided with an additional pre-opening. By pressurization at the X port, the control spool (4) is moved to the right. As a result, the ball (5) is pushed off the seat first and the seat poppet (2) afterwards.

Notes:

Version "A”: The two-stage set-up with an increased control open ratio means even low pilot pressure can be unloaded securely. Avoidance of switching shocks due to dampened decompression of the pressure volume on the actuator side. Version "B”: In case of valves without pre-opening, the included pressure volume may be unloaded suddenly. Resulting switching shocks may lead to premature wear on installed components, as well as noise formation.

Version "6U" (with built-on directional valve)

At direct operated, pilot operated check valves type SL with built-on directional valve, the control spool (4) may be controlled directly via the directional valve to open the seat poppet (2) against the system pressure, i.e. the blocking direction.

Notice:

When ordering the directional valve, please observe the different position of port A at versions "P" and "G" (porting pattern rotated by 180° at version "G", see "Dimensions").
