The Hydraforce 5500710N (5500710N) is a high-performance hydraulic directional element, specifically designed for applications requiring efficient load holding or blocking capabilities with minimal internal leakage. This model is a bidirectional, pilot-to-close, balanced poppet-type valve. It operates by allowing flow from ports 1 to 2 in both directions when unpiloted. Upon receiving a remote pilot signal at port 4, the valve transitions to block flow between these ports, effectively managing the control of hydraulic fluid in complex systems. The unique design features a spring chamber vented to port 3, which influences the pilot pressure needed for shifting the valve based on the pressure at this port. The balanced poppet ensures that full pressurization of ports 1 and 2 does not impact the required pilot pressure for actuation, allowing for consistent performance under varying pressures. For optimal functionality, with port 3 vented, the valve shifts completely with a minimum pilot pressure of 250 psi (17 bar). This model adheres to stringent industry standards as outlined by NFPA specification T2.6.1, ensuring reliability and performance under rigorous conditions. Each unit undergoes thorough testing with a verification level of 90% and an assurance level of 99%, guaranteeing its operational integrity and durability in demanding applications. The Hydraforce 5500710N is ideal for use in hydraulic systems where precise fluid control and low leakage are critical for maintaining system efficiency and effectiveness.
