Switch units combine the function of a directional seated valve with a pressure valve and check valve. They control dual stage pumps, a combination of high-pressure pump and low-pressure pump, in bottom and top ram presses. The low-pressure circuit and the high-pressure circuit are combined for rapid movement.
If the low-pressure value is reached or exceeded, the switch unit type CR switches the low-pressure circuit to circulation. The high-pressure pump carries out the pressing action. The switch unit hydraulic release acts automatically. It initiates surge-free decompression that relieves the press. In the closed state the switch unit has zero leakage.
The switch unit type CR can be attached directly to hydraulic power packs type MPN and RZ.
Features and benefits:
Special valve for controlling upstroke presses
Smooth, gentle switching
No pressure drop during press operation due to zero leakage
Fully automatic switching of the low-pressure pump to circulation
Intended applications:
Machine tools (presses)
Woodworking and processing machinery
Printing and paper technology
Foodstuff and packaging machinery
