The Hydraforce FD52-45-0-N-63 (5436463) is a screw-in cartridge, spool-type flow divider/combiner valve designed for advanced hydraulic systems requiring reliable flow management. This model operates by pressure-compensated proportional division of inlet flow or combining of two return flows, maintaining efficiency and performance regardless of system pressure variations. It offers a synchronizing flow in both dividing and combining modes, which is crucial for applications requiring precise motion control and fluid synchronization. The FD52-45-0-N-63 features hardened parts to ensure extended durability and a quiet, modulated response that contributes to the overall system stability. It supports a wide operating flow range, making it versatile for different hydraulic needs. The valve's design includes a floating cage that allows high installation torque and uses an industry-common cavity (VC124 or HVC124), facilitating easy installation and compatibility with existing systems. Key specifications include a pressure rating up to 6090 psi during 10% duty cycles, with a maximum inlet flow rate between 15 to 106 lpm depending on the specific model code variations (44, 66, or 88). It ensures flow accuracy within ±10% for models 44 and 66, and ±15% for model 88. The valve operates effectively within fluid temperatures ranging from -40°C to +100°C with various seal options accommodating different environmental conditions. This valve is suited for diverse applications where precise fluid control is essential such as in mobile hydraulics, industrial machinery, and any system where space efficiency combined with high performance is required. Its robust construction and operational features make it an excellent choice for both new installations and maintenance upgrades in complex hydraulic systems.
