Product Features
Setting and adjustment
SUN CAIGLGN counterbalance valves have an external atmospheric type design with pilot assisted opening. This design enables the valve to reduce the effective setting value of the relief function by the coefficient of action of the pilot ratio. This means that the opening pressure of the main valve can be changed by adjusting the pilot pressure, allowing fine control of system pressure.
Leakage and Reliability
The valve has a setting equal to 200 psi (14 bar) at full pressure relief. Approximately 1 drop (0.07cc) of leakage from the pilot area flow spring chamber occurs every 4000 cycles. This leakage rate is indicative of its high reliability and long life characteristics.
Construction and Interchangeability
SUN CAIGLGN counterbalance valves are structurally interchangeable with other 3-port counterbalance valves, load control valves, and pilot open check valves. This means that in some applications it is possible to replace different valve types according to specific requirements without extensive changes to the entire system.
Technical data
Set pressure
Recommended load pressure: 320 bar
Set pressure: 420 bar
Factory default setting: 30cc/min.
Leakage and reset pressure
Maximum leakage at return to seat: 0.3cc/min
Unidirectional opening pressure: 1.5bar
Reset pressure value: 85% above the valve opening value, when the setting value is less than the standard setting value, the proportion of the reset pressure value will be smaller accordingly .
Installation and maintenance
Valve head mounting hex size: 41.3mm
Valve mounting torque: 475-508 Nm.
Areas of application
The SUN CAIGLGN counterbalance valve is widely used in a variety of hydraulic systems, especially where precise pressure control and high reliability are required. For example, it is used in heavy construction machinery such as rotary drilling rigs to ensure operational safety and efficiency .
