function and application of the control valve
The basic function of the flow Control Valve is to reduce the volume of oil supplied in different places in a hydraulic circuit. Is a device used for adjusting or manipulating the flow rate of a liquid or a gas in a pipeline. The valve contains a flow passage or a port whose flow area can be varied. The role of the valve in a hydraulic circuit is very important and its very location is critical to optimum system performance.
An important application of this Control Valve in hydraulic systems is: controlling the flow rate to cylinders and motors to adjust their speeds. Any flow decrease it means a speed decrease at the actuator.
Also builds added resistance to the circuit, increasing pressure, resulting in a partial bypassing of fluid over the relief valve or a de-stroking pressure of a compensated pump. This reduces flow downstream of the valve.
