The Hydraforce FD50-45-0-N-22 (5436322) is a screw-in cartridge, spool-type flow divider/combiner valve. This hydraulic component is adept at providing pressure-compensated proportional division of inlet flow or combining two return flows, maintaining efficiency regardless of system operating pressure conditions. The valve excels in synchronizing flow in both dividing and combining modes, making it highly suitable for systems requiring precise flow management. Designed for use with mineral-based or synthetic hydraulic fluids that possess lubricating properties, the FD50-45-0-N-22 ensures durability and performance with its hardened parts and quiet, modulated response. It features a wide operating flow range from 19 to 57 liters per minute (5.0 to 15.0 gallons per minute), with a pressure rating up to 345 bar (5000 psi) and a maximum pressure drop of 20.5 bar (300 psi). Flow accuracy stands at ±15% of maximum inlet flow, ensuring reliable operation. Additionally, the valve's floating cage supports high installation torque and utilizes an industry-common cavity VC104, fitting seamlessly into various configurations. Each unit weighs approximately 0.49 kg (1.07 lbs), and optional accessories include seal kits (SK104NMMM) with installation instructions, as well as compatible 104W valve bodies for housing the unit. This combination of features makes the Hydraforce FD50-45-0-N-22 an essential component for systems requiring precise fluid control under varying pressure conditions.
