FLOW CONTROLS

Feed Control Valves

These Valves are the combination of flow control valve, a deceleration valve and a check valve and used mainly for controlling rapid traverse and feed cycle in machine tools. Switching from rapid traverse to feed is made by a cam operation, and fine feed control is accomplished by dial rotation regardless of pressure and oil temperature variation. Rapid return is free of cam actuation.

Instructions
Allowable Pressures at controlled flow outlet
If internal drain types of UCF1G-01 or 03 or UCF2G-03 are used, use them in metre-out circuits in order to limit the valve outlet pressure to the valves shown below. In addition, external drain types can also be used in metre-in circuits.

Note: The push down forces are with the maximum allowalble pressure at the port concerned, which is controlled flow outlet "B" for internal drain types or the drain port for internal drain types.

Minimum required pressure difference

The minimum differential pressure between inlet and outlet port is required obtain the optimum pressure compensation. It varies accordingly to the flow rate to be set. For details, please refer to the performance curve.

Allowable drain port back pressure

Limit to 1 kgf/cm2 In addition, connect the drain pipe independently and directly to the tank. (This applies only to external drain types.)

Spool push down level

Limit the spool push down level within the allowable maximum stroke range shown in the dimensioned drawings.

Line filter
To carry out flow adjustments by as small degree as 2 1/min or less, be sure to use a line filter, 10 or less, near the valve inlet.

Flow adjustment [UCF1G-01, UCFJG-03]

Loosen locking screw and turn flow adjustment dial clock for increase, and anti-clockwise for decrease. The dial makes about 4 revolutions from zero to full flow and the valve opening indicated on the revolu tion indicator. (Refer to characteristic of " Mitered Flow vs. Dial Position") After flow adjustment, tighten lock ing screw.

Sub-Plates are available. Specify sub-plate model from the table. When Sub-Plates, are not used , the mounting surface should have a good machined finish.
