The Hydraforce FC08-20F-0-N-D10 (5404006) is a high-performance, screw-in, cartridge-style flow control valve with a reverse flow check feature. This dual-function valve operates as a restrictor in the 2 to 1 direction and allows free flow in the 1 to 2 flow path, making it versatile for various hydraulic applications. The valve is designed with a hardened spool and cage ensuring long life and reliability even under tough conditions. It fits into a compact, industry-common cavity VC082, simplifying installation processes. The FC08-20F-0-N-D10 is engineered to withstand high pressures with a pressure rating of up to 241 bar (3500 psi), proof pressure of 345 bar (5000 psi), and burst pressure reaching up to 896 bar (13000 psi). It supports a wide range of operating fluid temperatures from -40°C to +100°C (-40°F to +212°F) when equipped with Buna N seals, significantly extending its usability across different environmental conditions. Additionally, it can handle fluid viscosities ranging from 7.4 to 420 cSt and is compatible with mineral-based or synthetic hydraulic fluids that have lubricating properties. This model has an internal wetted surface area of approximately 206 cm² (31.9 in²) and weighs about 0.10 kg (0.20 lb), making it lightweight yet robust enough for demanding applications. Its design does not restrict installation orientation, which provides flexibility in system design and setup. For maintenance or replacement needs, seal kits such as the SK082XT are available along with housing options like the 082W valve bodies that enhance its adaptability for different systems configurations.
