The Hydraforce EP12-S35T-0-N-240 (5283041) is a screw-in, cartridge-style, pilot-to-close hydraulic directional element designed for advanced fluid control in hydraulic systems. This valve operates as a spring-biased blocking valve which shifts to allow full flow from port 1 to port 2 only when the pressure at port 1 exceeds the combined pressure at port 3 plus the bias spring pressure. It features multiple application potentials and boasts a low-pressure drop, making it highly efficient for various hydraulic applications. The EP12-S35T-0-N-240 supports a maximum flow as indicated on its performance graph and can handle pressures up to 5000 psi (345 bar). It offers minimal internal leakage of 131 ml/min at maximum pressure, ensuring precise operation and reduced fluid loss. The valve is compatible with mineral-based or synthetic hydraulic fluids with lubricating properties, accommodating a broad viscosity range from 7.4 to 420 cSt. This model is engineered to operate effectively within a temperature range of -40 to +100°C (-40 to +212°F) with buna N seals, extending up to +204°C (400°F) with fluorocarbon or high durometer fluorocarbon seals. It also remains functional in ambient temperatures up to +90°C (194°F). The unit's weight varies slightly based on specific model configurations within the EP12-S35 series. Installation specifications are straightforward due to its industry-common cavity VC12S3 design, allowing for flexible integration into various system setups without orientation restrictions. The cartridge installation torque requirement ranges from 44.7 to 50.2 Nm (33 to 37 ft-lb), ensuring secure fitting and operational reliability. Optional accessories include seal kits like SK12S3XMM for different seal options and custom housings like the available 123w valve bodies tailored for specific applications or system requirements.
