These directacting inline pressurecompensator (hydrostat) cartridges, series DWDPB5D10…, are size 10, high performance screwin cartridges with an M24x1.5 mounting thread. The main stage is designed on the slidingspool principle. The range includes a model with an adjustable pressurecompensator spring (5 ... 15 bar) and four models with a fixed compensator spring (1, 4, 6 or 8 bar). Pressurecompensator cartridges maintain the control pressure difference between inlet and outlet pressure for example, across a throttle (an orifice) at a constant level. This means that the flow rate is independent of the load pressure at the actuator. An optional model DWDPUB5D10... with damped spool is available for use in oscillationsusceptible conditions (for example, with load pressure < 20 bar). The adjusting screw or the handknob enable the user to carry out system optimisation directly on the equipment, without any need to install or replace components that have different flow ranges (e.g. proportional valves). To safeguard valve settings, the adjusting screw can be sealed with a tamperproof cap. These screwin cartridges are used in hydraulic circuits in mobile and industrial applications, predominantly in conjunction with a throttle cartridge. All external parts of the cartridge are zinc-nickel plated to DIN 50979 and are thus suitable for use in the harshest operating environments.
