Simplifying hydraulic language-3 way pressure compensated flow control
Reading a 3-way pressure-compensated flow control symbol requires understanding the different elements and their meanings. Here's a breakdown of how to interpret this symbol:
Basic Shape:
The symbol usually consists of a rectangular shape, representing the valve body or housing that contains the flow control mechanism.
Arrows:
Within the rectangular shape, you will typically find arrows or lines that depict the direction of fluid flow. These arrows indicate the paths through which the hydraulic fluid flows.
Circles or Dots:
The symbol may include circles or dots at specific points along the flow paths. These represent the different ports or connections of the valve.
Pressure Compensation Indicator:
The pressure compensation feature of the flow control symbol is usually represented by a diamond-shaped symbol connected to the arrows or lines. It indicates that the flow control valve automatically adjusts to maintain a constant flow rate despite changes in pressure.
To read the 3-way pressure-compensated flow control symbol:
Flow Paths:
Follow the arrows or lines to understand the paths through which the hydraulic fluid flows. The direction indicated by the arrows shows the intended flow direction.
Pressure Compensation:
Identify the diamond-shaped symbol connected to the arrows or lines. It signifies that the flow control valve is pressure compensated, meaning it adjusts the flow rate to maintain consistency despite variations in pressure.
Port Connections:
Take note of the circles or dots along the flow paths. These represent the different ports or connections where hydraulic lines or components can be attached to the valve.
Understanding this symbol helps identify and utilize the 3-way pressure-compensated flow control valve in hydraulic systems. It enables precise control over fluid flow rates while compensating for changes in pressure.
