The Hydraforce FC08-20F-0-N-A10 (5404000) is a high-performance flow control valve equipped with a reverse flow check feature. This screw-in, cartridge-style valve is designed to function as a restrictor in the 2 to 1 direction and allows free flow in the 1 to 2 direction, ensuring efficient operation in various hydraulic systems. It boasts a hardened spool and cage that contribute to its durability and longevity, making it suitable for demanding applications. The unit is engineered for use with mineral-based or synthetic hydraulic fluids with lubricating properties, supporting fluid viscosity ranges from 7.4 to 420 cSt. It operates effectively within a fluid temperature range of -40°C to +100°C with Buna N seals, -26°C to +204°C with fluorocarbon seals, and -54°C to +107°C with polyurethane seals. The FC08-20F-0-N-A10 maintains robust performance under pressure ratings of up to 241 bar (3500 psi), proof pressures up to 345 bar (5000 psi), and burst pressures reaching up to 896 bar (13000 psi). This valve's compact design fits industry-common cavity VC082, facilitating easy installation without orientation restrictions and requiring a torque between 24.5 to 27.2 Nm for cartridge installation. Weighing approximately 0.10 kg and featuring an internal wetted surface area of about 206 cm², it is both lightweight and efficient in its hydraulic interactions. Additionally, the FC08-20F-0-N-A10 offers compatibility with various seal kits like SK082XT for different sealing options and can be incorporated into custom or standard housings designed for specific applications. This adaptability makes it an ideal choice for tailored hydraulic solutions across diverse operational requirements.
