Hydraulics & Automation Warehouse (HAW) recently introduced the Salami VDP08 load sensing valve to the hydraulic industry. The valve is ideal for a wide range of applications, mainly in the mobile field, where independent flow control of actuators is needed without being affected by load variations, and offers good metering characteristics that provide increased energy saving.
The valve offers a cost-effective solution and is easily retrofitted without having to change mounting specifications. It can be used in applications up to 130 l/min, and a maximum working pressure of 350 bar. Other benefits include the modular design. In the case of a malfunctioning valve section, this design feature means that only the faulty section needs to be replaced, which can be done on site without having to remove the entire valve.
The VDP08 load sensing valve can be ordered for use with both variable and fixed displacement pump applications. With the Salami range of hydraulic gear pumps, motors and manual-operated mobile control valves, HAW is one step closer to its goal of becoming the largest component and accessory supplier to the hydraulic industry.
