The Hydraforce PR10-36A-0-N-15/ (5615001) is a spool type, pilot-operated hydraulic pressure reducing/relieving valve, designed to regulate pressure in secondary circuits. Featuring an internal pilot and spring chamber drain, this valve allows bidirectional flow from port 2 to port 1 in its steady state, with the spring chamber drained at port 3. Upon reaching a predetermined pressure at port 1, the spool shifts to restrict inlet flow from port 2, regulating the pressure at port 1 and relieving excess pressure from port 1 to port 3. The valve is equipped with adjustments that cannot be backed out to prevent springs from going solid and offers optional spring ranges up to 207 bar (3000 psi). Constructed with a hardened spool and cage for enhanced durability, it fits an industry-common size cavity VC10-3. The PR10-36A-0-N-15/ supports a maximum flow rating of 56.8 lpm (15 gpm) and can handle pressures up to 241.3 bar (3500 psi) at ports 1 and 2, with a lower rating of 68.9 bar (1000 psi) at port 3. It boasts proof and burst pressures of 517.1 bar (7500 psi) and 1034 bar (15000 psi), respectively. The valve operates efficiently across a wide fluid temperature range depending on seal material: -40 to 100 \u00b0C with Buna N seals, -26 to 204 \u00b0C with fluorocarbon seals, or -54 to 107 \u00b0C with polyurethane seals. Compatible fluids include mineral-based or synthetic types with lubricating properties within a viscosity range of 7.4 to 420 cSt. Installation requires specific torques: cartridge installation torque ranges between 33.9 N-m (25 ft-lb) and up to a maximum of 67.8 N-m (50 ft-lb), while H-style plug torque is set at approximately 33.9 N-m (25 ft-lb). The unit's weight varies slightly based on configuration but averages around the half-kilogram mark for most options available in this series.
