1 Introduction
The 8098-87 plate type hydraulic flow control valve is a multi-functional device used to regulate the flow of pressurized fluids in a variety of industrial systems. The 8098-87 valve features a robust construction designed to resist corrosion, resist heat, and withstand high pressure applications. In addition, the 8098-87 valve is designed with a variety of features, such as adjustable pressure settings, variable spring options, and interchangeable ports that make it suitable for almost any application.
2 Design
The 8098-87 plate type hydraulic flow control valve is constructed of a combination of stainless steel and brass components, which are welded and bolted together for greater reliability. The valve body consists of three parts: an inlet passage, an outlet passage, and a valve seat. The body of the valve is mounted on a frame that is then mounted on the mounting surface. This construction ensures that the valve will be securely installed and remain stable under high pressure applications.
The 8098-87 plate type hydraulic flow control valve is operated by its adjustable pressure setting, which is variable from zero to 20 psi. The variable spring options in the 8098-87 valve allow the user to adjust the pressure to achieve the desired flow rate. In addition, the interchangeable ports of this valve provide flexibility in the application. The valve is operated by turning the handle or knob to the desired setting.
3 Installation
The 8098-87 plate type hydraulic flow control valve should be installed on a flat and clean mounting surface to ensure a secure fit. First, the valve body is attached to the mounting frame using bolts. Next, the outlet and inlet lines are connected to the valve body using the appropriate connections. Finally, the adjustable pressure setting and spring options are adjusted to achieve the desired flow rate.
Once the 8098-87 valve has been properly installed, the next step is to check the flow of fluid through the valve. This can be done by connecting the valve to a pressure gauge or flow meter and then opening the valve. The valve will allow fluid to pass through at a specific flow rate and should be checked periodically to make sure the flow is consistent.
4 Maintenance
To maintain the 8098-87 plate type hydraulic flow control valve effectively, it is important to inspect the valve on a regular basis. If the valve is used in a corrosive environment, it is recommended to replace the valve every three to five years. In addition to this, it is important to check for any leaks and to inspect the valve for any signs of damage or wear.
In order to properly maintain the 8098-87 valve, it is important to keep the valve clean and to lubricate the valve regularly. This can be done by spraying a suitable lubricant into the valve, wiping off any excess lubricant from the contact surfaces, and then checking the valve for smooth operation. The valve should also be checked periodically to ensure that the adjustable pressure setting and spring options are still adjusted correctly.
5 Conclusion
The 8098-87 plate type hydraulic flow control valve is a reliable and versatile device that can be used in a variety of industrial applications. It is designed with adjustable pressure settings, variable spring options, and interchangeable ports to provide flexibility. The valve should be installed on a flat and clean surface and adequately maintained to ensure optimal performance. Regular inspections and maintenance are essential to keep the 8098-87 valve running efficiently and safely.
