Applications
SUN reducing cartridges reduce a high primary pressure at port 2 (inlet) to a controlled lower pressure at port 1. The reduced pressure is determined by the spring adjustment plus any pressure in port 3 (drain).
Typical Application Examples Include:
• Provide a controlled lower pressure to a secondary circuit function
• Provide accurate reduced pressure control for clamp and hold down circuits
*Use reducing valves with blocked center directional valves to provide a lower pressure to a second circuit.
*Use reducing valves with reverse free flow check valves to provide a controlled lower pressure in one direction on reversing actuators.
