It can be used with balanced and unbalanced cylinders.
Description
The normally open solenoid operated unloader
valve is a compact line mounted G1/4 (BSPP)
ported manifold. The low power consumption 12W
coils are available in 12V/24V DC variants.
With an anodized body and an IP67 rating this
valve has been designed for the harsh marine
environment.
Application
Designed to be used in autopilot steering applications, this valve is used to bypass the auto
pilot hydraulic steering cylinder so that manual steering can be used. It can be used with
balanced cylinders or by connecting the ‘R’ port to the reservoir with unbalanced cylinders. The
design has been optimized to enable the coil to be energized for extended periods of time.
