The Hydraforce 5614900P.M18 (5614900P.M18) is a screw-in, cartridge-style, direct-acting spool type hydraulic pressure reducing/relieving valve. This versatile component is designed for use as a pressure regulating device in secondary circuits. It features an internal spring chamber drain and a spool damping chamber, enhancing its reliability and performance. The valve allows bidirectional flow from port 2 to port 1 in its steady state while maintaining a constant drain at port 3. When the predetermined pressure at port 1 is reached, the cartridge shifts to block flow at port 2, effectively regulating the pressure at port 1. Additionally, it can relieve pressure from port 1 to port 3 over a variable value above the set reducing pressure. Notably, adjustments on this valve cannot be backed out and are designed to prevent springs from going solid, ensuring consistent performance. Optional spring ranges are available up to 227.5 bar (3300 psi), providing flexibility for various applications. The hardened spool and cage contribute to its long life, making it a durable choice for demanding environments. The design also includes an optional protective screen for port 2 with a rating of 60 mesh or 250 microns, offering added protection against contaminants. This valve's industry-common size ensures compatibility with existing systems and simplifies integration into hydraulic circuits requiring precise pressure control and relief functions.
