The Hydraforce 5618040 (5618040) is a spool type, direct acting, adjustable, external pilot hydraulic sequence valve with an externally vented spring chamber. This valve is designed to block flow between ports 2 and 3 bidirectionally, ensuring precise control in hydraulic systems. The spring chamber remains constantly vented at port 4. When the valve pressure setting is reached at port 1, the spool shifts to open ports 2 and 3 bidirectionally, allowing for efficient flow management. Notably, the pressure at port 4 adds to the spring setting in a direct 1:1 ratio, providing enhanced control over hydraulic operations. The PS10-40X model features adjustments that cannot be backed out of the valve and are designed to prevent springs from becoming solid, ensuring reliable performance over time. Additionally, it offers optional spring ranges up to 151.7 bar (2200 psi), catering to various operational requirements. The valve is constructed with a hardened precision spool and cage for extended durability and is available in an industry-common size for easy integration into existing systems.
