The Hydraforce BV10-40-0-N (5286000) is a sophisticated load shuttle valve characterized by its spool type pressure to shift, spring return, and three-position functionality. This valve is meticulously engineered to allow oil pressure from either of its inlet 'M' ports to be directed towards the 'C' port. Primarily, it serves the purpose of releasing a spring-applied park brake when hydraulic power is utilized for moving a load. In its neutral state, the 'C' port remains open to the tank. A notable feature of this model is that when the pressure differential between the 'M' ports surpasses approximately 80 psi, the spool shifts sufficiently to close off the tank port while opening the higher pressure 'M' port to 'C'. The BV10-40-0-N boasts hardened work surfaces ensuring durability and reliability under various operational conditions. It accommodates a broad range of operating fluid temperatures from -40°C to +100°C with Buna N seals, and up to +204°C with Viton seals, making it versatile for different environmental demands. The valve's design includes an industry-common cavity VC104 for simplified integration into existing systems. Its robust construction allows it to handle pressures up to 3500 psi (241 bar), and it supports mineral-based or synthetic hydraulic fluids with lubricating properties within a viscosity range of 7.4 to 420 cSt. Additionally, this model maintains maximum operating contamination levels as per ISO 4406 standards, ensuring long-term performance with minimal internal leakage. For ease of installation and maintenance, various seal kits like SK104NTBT (Buna N), SK104VTBT (Viton), and SK104PTBT (Polyurethane) are available along with comprehensive installation instructions. The unit's weight stands at approximately 0.163 kg (0.36 lb), facilitating easy handling and setup without orientation restrictions during installation.
