HydraForce FD50-45 Flow Divider / Combiner, Multi-Function, High Pressure

HydraForce FD50-45 high performance, high pressure, multifunction, screw-in, cartridge-style, spool-type flow divider/combiner.

In the dividing mode, the FD50-45 valve will divert input flow from port 3 to ports 2 and 4, based on the ratio specified, regardless of operating pressure. When the flow direction is reversed the
valve will combine flows from 2 and 4 to port 3. Synchronising flow is provided in both the dividing and combining modes at “bottomed” conditions in cylinder applications and at “stalled” conditions in motor applications.

Features:

• Hardened parts for long life
• Quiet, modulated response
• Wide operating flow range
• Synchronising in dividing and combining modes
• Floating cage — high installation torque
• Industry-common cavity
