The Hydraforce NV08-20A-0-P (5401000P) is a high-performance, screw-in, cartridge-style hydraulic flow restrictor valve designed for precise fluid control in hydraulic systems. This variable orifice needle valve can adjust its orifice size from fully closed to fully open through a counterclockwise rotation, allowing for linear and positive shutoff adjustments. The valve's design ensures that adjustments cannot be backed out unintentionally, and desired settings can be securely locked down. Constructed with hardened parts, the NV08-20A-0-P offers enhanced durability and a long service life. It features an aluminum knob option for ease of adjustment. The compact size of this valve makes it ideal for applications where space is limited but precise flow control is necessary. With a maximum operating pressure of 241 bar (3500 psi), proof pressure of 345 bar (5000 psi), and burst pressure of 896 bar (13000 psi), it is robust enough to handle demanding applications. The valve operates effectively within a temperature range of -40 to +120°C (-40 to +250°F) with Buna N seals, further extending up to 204°C (400°F) with fluorocarbon seals, making it suitable for various fluid types including mineral-based or synthetic hydraulic fluids. Additionally, the NV08-20A-0-P maintains high performance even under maximum internal leakage conditions of only 5 drops per minute at shutoff. This unit's versatility is enhanced by its compatibility with various seal options provided in the SK082XM kit and can be installed in any orientation without restrictions. The cavity required for this model is VC082 which fits standard 08-size 2-way cavities, ensuring easy installation across multiple applications.
