The Hydraforce PV08-30AM-0-N-00 (5110502) is a solenoid-operated, pressure-compensated, spool-type, normally closed, priority-type proportional flow control regulator. This versatile valve can also function as a restrictive type, 2-way pressure-compensated proportional flow regulator when port 2 is blocked. Designed to regulate priority flow from port 1 to port 3, it maintains this flow regardless of system working pressure with the flow rate being directly proportional to the current applied to the solenoid. Excessive flow is bypassed out of port 2 and can be utilized for auxiliary functions; however, external valving should avoid blocking the bypass line to prevent deadheading of the priority line. In restrictive mode applications where port 2 is blocked, the flow rate out of port 3 remains proportional to the current applied regardless of load pressure at port 3. The PV08-30AM features excellent linearity and hysteresis characteristics due to its hardened spool and cage construction which ensures long life. It offers optional coil voltages and terminations with efficient wet-armature construction for optimal performance. The valve boasts a maximum inlet pressure rating of 241 bar (3500 psi), with regulated and bypass pressures up to 207 bar (3000 psi). It can handle proof pressures up to 345 bar (5000 psi) and burst pressures up to 896 bar (13000 psi). Flow ratings vary with configurations, offering up to a maximum input of 22.8 lpm (6.0 gpm) in three-port modes. It operates efficiently across fluid temperatures ranging from -40\u00b0C (-40\u00b0F) with Buna N seals up to 204\u00b0C (400\u00b0F) with fluorocarbon seals. The PV08-30AM fits into VC08-3 cavities and requires specific torque settings for installation ensuring secure fitting without orientation restrictions.
