Hydraulic Tool Flow Control Valves

How to install these hydraulic tool flow control valves?

• Turn off the hydraulic system or disconnect the tool from the hydraulic system to ensure that there is no hydraulic pressure in the system.
• Install the flow control valve in the location you identified, ensuring that you have the correct valve rated with the correct pressure & flow rate for the application.
• Connect the hydraulic lines to the flow control valve using appropriate fittings and seals.
• Make sure that the flow control valve is properly oriented with the inlet and outlet ports aligned correctly.
• Turn on the hydraulic system and test the flow control valve, ensuring it is working properly. Check for leaks and make any necessary adjustments.
• Once you are satisfied that the flow control valve is working correctly, reconnect any tools or equipment that were disconnected and resume normal operations.

What is the recommended filtration level of ICS hydraulic toll flow control valves?

10 microns.

How do I choose a proper hydraulic tool flow control valve for my equipment?

• Determine the flow rate to select the appropriate size of the flow control valve.
• Match the pressure rating of the valve to the maximum pressure of your hydraulic system.
• Choose the valve type that suits your application, such as a needle valve or spool valve.
• Ensure the valve configuration matches your hydraulic system's configuration.
• Consider additional features like pressure relief valves or adjustable flow settings.

How do I clean & maintain these flow control valves?

• Regularly inspect the valve for signs of wear or damage.
• Use a clean, lint-free cloth or soft-bristled brush to remove debris or contaminants from the valve.
• Apply a small amount of hydraulic fluid to moving parts for lubrication.
• Ensure all components are reassembled correctly and connections are tight and secure.
• Keep a record of maintenance and inspections to track the valve's performance.
