Counterbalance valves with regenerative function

COUNTERBALANCE VALVES WITH REGENERATIVE FUNCTION


Bosch Rexroth Oil Control manufactures a variety of valves which combine a counterbalance function with regenerative circuit. They are employed to control cylinders where it is desired to shorten the extension time, without increasing the pump flow capacity. Often these valves perform also a dual counterbalance function on both the full bore and the cylinder rod side (see scheme), in addition to the regenerative function.

A) Basic regenerative valves: operation principles and related main formulas

= Cylinder Ratio, or Cylinder bore Area / Cylinder annular Area

/ 4 D2 / 4 D2 - / 4 d2

The cylinder extends when the pump flow is directed to the Full Bore Side (C2) and, from this general scheme, it can be seen that the cylinder extension is possible only if the by-pass valve (2) is piloted open: in fact, valve (2) is the counterbalance valve the cylinder annular (rod) side and, since it has pressure both upstream and downstream, it needs to be of the fully balanced or CCAP type. During extension, the total inlet flow to the cylinder (Qt) is sum of the flow from the pump (Qp) plus the flow from the annular chamber, or regenerated flow (Qr), and the following basic equations apply: Total Inlet Flow (Qt ) to the cylinder:

Qt = (Qp + Qr ),

and

(Qt = Qp

D2 d2

Regenerated flow (Qr), or By-Pass through valve (2):

Qr =

Qp
(-1)

Examples: a) With cylinder ratio = 2,

Qr = Qp , Regenerated flow = Pump flow, and Qt = 2 Qp, Total flow = Twice the pump flow.

In this case, for a given pump flow, the cylinder extension speed doubles compared to the non regenerative circuit: cylinder extension and retraction speeds become identical. b) With cylinder ratio = 1.5, Qr = 2 Qp, Qt = 3 Qp, Regenerated flow = twice the pump flow, and Total flow = Three times the pump flow.

Bosch Rexroth Oil Control S.p.a 96

RE 00171/02.07

COUNTERBALANCE VALVES WITH REGENERATIVE FUNCTION


In this (b) case, for a given pump flow, the cylinder extension speed becomes three times the speed with non regenerative circuit. NOTE: the a.m. formulas and the example (b) show the very high level reached by the regenerated flow, compared to the pump flow, when the cylinder ratio has values smaller than 2:1 (i.e. when the annular area is larger than 50% of full bore area, or when the rod diameter is relatively small compared to cylinder diameter). It is very important to determine the actual potential level of the Qr flow in order to fit pipes and hoses of the correct size and avoid pressure losses which could be very relevant. For the same reason, it is also advisable to install the regenerative valves always close to the cylinder in order to have connection hoses and pipes as short as possible.

B) Regenerative valves with controlled regenerative mode In many applications it may be desired, or necessary, to have both the following conditions: a) regenerative mode for quick cylinder extension, and shorter approach times b) non regenerative mode, with annular chamber dumped to tank, - either for maximum cylinder thrust, if high force must be developed by the cylinder - or for lower speed, if fine control becomes necessary. Bosch Rexroth Oil Control manufactures a variety of valve modules with the above mentioned features. They can be classified in two main families (1) and (2): 1) pressure sensitive regenerative mode; 2) regenerative mode on demand.

1) Pressure Sensitive Regenerative Mode These valve modules automatically shift from regenerative into non regenerative mode at a determined level of pressure in the line V2 C2 feeding the cylinder bore: when extension starts, V2 pressure first pilots open the by-pass valve (2), and the regenerative circuit is activated. As the cylinder extends, if it meets higher resistance (higher load to move), the main pressure in line V2 C2 increases, and, when resistance is high enough, also the valve (5) is piloted open. Now the flow from the cylinder annular chamber is free to return to tank through V1, and the regenerative mode is automatically cut out. The cylinder extension continues at lower speed (at pump flow speed) and the line pressure is active on the whole full bore area, without back-pressure at the rod side: the thrust developed is at its maximum level.

RE 00171/02.07

COUNTERBALANCE VALVES WITH REGENERATIVE FUNCTION


2) Regenerative mode on demand These valve modules allow motion control at pump flow speed (or low speed) in all conditions, in order to have always fine control, and allow to engage regenerative the mode for quicker cylinder extension, with shorter cycle time, when desired and permitted by the load; normally the regenerative mode is engaged manually by the operator only when the cylinder is extended in empty conditions.

The by-pass channel, between counterbalance valve (2) and check valve (3), is connected to a channel which diverts the annular chamber oil to V1 and to tank, through the main control valve; in the scheme, this channel is controlled by a Normally Open solenoid valve, and the cylinder extension normally happens without regenerative mode, with the annular chamber oil flowing through valves (2) and (5), to V1 and to tank through the MCV. The regenerative mode can be activated on demand by energizing, and closing, the valve (5); the annular chamber oil is forced to go through valve (3), and to join the pump flow coming from valve (1).

Valves for motor

Dual cross over relief

DUAL CROSS OVER RELIEF


Bosch Rexroth Oil Control manufactures a variety of valves for pressure, flow and motion control of actuators working in both forward and reverse direction. A few of these valves are designed to be line mounted on the 2 main hoses, but many of them are studied to match the port patterns of commercially available hydraulic motors and they can be flanged onto the motor directly simplifying plumbing and saving space. This catalogue shows examples of valves for Rexroth A2FE Series and Sauer-Danfoss orbital motors, but the valve range extends to a number of other motors as well. The valves are grouped by hydraulic function as follows: 4a) DUAL CROSS OVER RELIEF 4b) SINGLE COUNTERBALANCE WITH BRAKE RELEASE PORT 4c) DUAL COUNTERBALANCE WITH BRAKE RELEASE PORT 4d) MOTION CONTROL

4a) DUAL CROSS OVER RELIEF They limit the inlet pressure in either one of the inlet lines and they protect the actuator from shocks or pressure surges induced by changes in direction or sudden stops. Since they are of the cross-over type, they transfer the exhausted oil to the other line (from V1 to V2 and vice-versa) to ensure re-filling of the actuator and to prevent cavitation.

Some dual cross-over relief valves have an extra tank port T (see scheme) with two check valves to allow oil inlet into the low pressure line and to make up for any drain or for any exhausted flow. In order to ensure that the motor is always full, and to avoid cavitation, the T port must be connected to a tank line slightly pressurized (at least 5 8 bar).

NOTE: aluminium bodies are often strong enough for operating pressures exceeding 210 bar (3000 psi), depending from the fatigue life expected in the specific application. If in doubt, consult our Service Network.

Weight: 0.79 kg (1.7 lbs) It relieves the inlet pressure from either one of the supply lines and it protects motors or hydraulic actuators from shocks or pressure surges induced by changes in direction or by sudden stops. The dual relief is of the cross over type, and exhausted oil is transferred to the other line (from V1 into V2 and vice-versa), without the necessity of a separate tank line: this feature also prevents cavitation when used in conjunction with closed centre directional valve. For relief cartridge details, see RE00162-02, page AS1.030. Each cartridge can be individually pressure set. For best protection, the valve should be fitted as close to the actuator as possible.

The relief is of the cross over type, and exhausted oil is transferred through the check valve to the low pressure line (from V1 into V2, or vice-versa) to prevent cavitation. An extra tank port (T), with 2 additional checks, allows to make up for any drain or exhausted flow and ensures that the motor is always full. The direct acting relief cartridge has hydraulic damping and provides enhanced stability at all flows and pressures.

SINGLE COUNTERBALANCE VALVES WITH BRAKE RELEASE PORT


Bosch Rexroth Oil Control manufactures a variety of valves for pressure, flow and motion control of actuators working in both forward and reverse direction. A few of these valves are designed to be line mounted on the 2 main hoses, but many of them are studied to match the port patterns of commercially available hydraulic motors and they can be flanged onto the motor directly simplifying plumbing and saving space. This catalogue shows examples of valves for Rexroth A2FE Series and Sauer-Danfoss orbital motors, but the valve range extends to a number of other motors as well. The valves are grouped by hydraulic function as follows: 4a) DUAL CROSS OVER RELIEF 4b) SINGLE COUNTERBALANCE WITH BRAKE RELEASE PORT 4c) DUAL COUNTERBALANCE WITH BRAKE RELEASE PORT 4d) MOTION CONTROL 4b) SINGLE COUNTERBALANCE WITH BRAKE RELEASE PORT They are a combination of a pilot assisted counterbalance valve and of a shuttle for brake control through C3 port; they are employed on equal area actuators with overrunning load and with spring loaded holding brake (typically winches powered by hydraulic motor).

In a winch circuit the pressure induced by the overrunning load remains constant while lowering and the pilot ratio R can be chosen as high as possible in order to speed up motion and save energy. However it must be considered that the pilot pressure needed to open the counterbalance valve must always be higher than the pressure capable to release the brake (generally 15 20 bar). In fact, when lowering starts, the pressure in the pilot line must build-up to a level capable to release the brake, before opening the counterbalance valve and allowing the motor to start rotating. With hydraulic motors, the pilot pressure needed to open the counterbalance valve can be calculated by the following formula:

Ppil =
and the lowest pilot pressure (Ppil) is:

Pt - Pload R+1

(Ppil min) =
where: Pt = pressure setting (relief setting) Pload = load induced pressure R = pilot ratio

Pt - Pload max R+1

Example: Pload max = 170 bar (pressure generated by the maximum load capacity) Pt = 350 bar ( > 1.3 x 170 bar ) R = 8:1 (Pilot ratio) Brake release pressure: 17 bar 350 - 170

(Ppil min) =

8+1

bar = 20 bar > 17 bar

The selected counterbalance valve, with R = 8 : 1 and Pt = 350 bar, complies with the correct lowering sequence because the lowest pilot pressure is >17 bar. If compliance was not met, a different pilot ratio or a different pressure setting should be selected.

Relief setting: at least 1.3 times the highest expected load. In addition, both the relief setting and the pilot ratio must be determined also in order to achieve buildingup of pilot pressure in P high enough to release the brake prior to any valve opening from C2 to V2.

When pressure at V2 rises above the spring bias pressure, the check seat is pushed away from the piston and flow is allowed from V2 to C2. When load pressure at C2 rises above the pressure setting, the direct operated, differential area, relief function is activated and flow is relieved from C2 to V2. With pilot pressure at P, the pressure setting is reduced in proportion to the stated ratio of the valve, until opening and allowing flow from C2 to V2. The spring chamber is drained to V2, and any back-pressure at V2 is additive to the pressure setting in all functions. Through port C3, an incorporated shuttle valve directs either P or V2 line pressure to the spring actuated brake for brake opening.

DUAL COUNTERBALANCE VALVES WITH BRAKE RELEASE PORT


Bosch Rexroth Oil Control manufactures a variety of valves for pressure, flow and motion control of actuators working in both forward and reverse direction. A few of these valves are designed to be line mounted on the 2 main hoses, but many of them are studied to match the port patterns of commercially available hydraulic motors and they can be flanged onto the motor directly simplifying plumbing and saving space. This catalogue shows examples of valves for Rexroth A2FE Series and Sauer-Danfoss orbital motors, but the valve range extends to a number of other motors as well. The valves are grouped by hydraulic function as follows: 4a) DUAL CROSS OVER RELIEF 4b) SINGLE COUNTERBALANCE WITH BRAKE RELEASE PORT 4c) DUAL COUNTERBALANCE WITH BRAKE RELEASE PORT 4d) MOTION CONTROL 4c) DUAL COUNTERBALANCE WITH BRAKE RELEASE PORT They are a combination of a two internally cross-piloted counterbalance valves and of a shuttle valve for brake release through C3 port; they are usually employed to control hydraulic motors where loads or inertia forces can be overrunning in both directions, and which have a spring loaded holding brake (example: hydraulic motors for forward and reverse travelling, or for clockwise and anti-clockwise slewing). NOTE: these hydraulic circuits usually have a Main Control Valve with both ports open to Tank in central position in order to prevent pressure building up in either V1 or V2 line, with possibility of inadvertent releasing of the holding brake through the C3 port. In systems powered by hydraulic motors, the pressure induced by the overrunning loads generally is not subject to high changes during motion. Consequently, the pilot ratio R can be chosen as high as possible in order to speed up motion and save energy. However R must comply with the limit resulting from the following consideration: the pilot pressure needed to open the counterbalance valve must always be higher than the pressure capable to release the brake (generally 15 20 bar). In fact, when motion is commanded in either direction, first the pilot pressure must build-up to a level capable to release the brake, then the pilot pressure can open the counterbalance valve and allow the motor to start rotating. With hydraulic motors, the pilot pressure needed to open the counterbalance valve can be calculated by the following formula:

Ppil =
and the lowest pilot pressure (Ppil) is:
where: Pt = pressure setting (relief setting) Pload = load induced pressure R = pilot ratio

Pt - Pload R+1 Pt - Pload max R+1

(Ppil min) =

Example: Pload max = 170 bar (pressure generated by the maximum load capacity) Pt = 325 bar ( > 1.3 x 170 bar ) R = 8:1 (Pilot ratio) Brake release pressure: 17 bar 325 - 170

(Ppil min) =

8+1

bar = 17.2 bar > 17 bar

The selected counterbalance valve, with R = 8 : 1 and Pt = 325 bar, complies with the correct lowering sequence because the lowest pilot pressure is 17.2 bar > 17 bar: also with the highest load capacity, the holding brake is released before any motion of the hydraulic motor is started. If compliance is not met, a different pilot ratio or a different pressure setting must be selected. If it is necessary to limit the pressure to the brake, a pressure reducer cartridge may be incorporated into the valve between the shuttle and C3 (Example: code 08.46.32.X.Y.Z).

With pilot pressure applied at the line across, the pressure setting of the relief is reduced in proportion to the stated ratio until opening and allowing controlled reverse motion. With motor turning and without pilot pressure, the relief function builds up back-pressure at the motor port in order to stop the motion. Back-pressure at V1 or V2 is additive to the pressure setting in all functions. Through port C3, a shuttle valve directs either V1 or V2 line pressure to the spring actuated brake for brake releasing.

Flangeable on REXROTH motors A2FE 28-32 series. Relief setting: at least 1.3 times the highest expected load. In addition, both the relief setting and the pilot ratio must be determined in order to achieve building-up of pilot pressure in V1 or V2 high enough to release the brake prior to any valve opening.

MOTION CONTROL
Bosch Rexroth Oil Control manufactures a variety of valves for pressure, flow and motion control of actuators working in both forward and reverse direction. A few of these valves are designed to be line mounted on the 2 main hoses, but many of them are studied to match the port patterns of commercially available hydraulic motors and they can be flanged onto the motor directly simplifying plumbing and saving space. This catalogue shows examples of valves for Rexroth A2FE Series and Sauer-Danfoss orbital motors, but the valve range extends to a number of other motors as well. The valves are grouped by hydraulic function as follows: 4a) DUAL CROSS OVER RELIEF 4b) SINGLE COUNTERBALANCE WITH BRAKE RELEASE PORT 4c) DUAL COUNTERBALANCE WITH BRAKE RELEASE PORT 4d) MOTION CONTROL 4d) MOTION CONTROL This family of valves performs the following main functions: A Free flow into the motor through the check valves from both the main supply lines. B Limitation of the inlet pressure through the cross-over type relief valves which transfer the exhausted oil to the other line (from V1 to V2 and vice-versa). C Locking of the motor by locking the reverse flow at both the motor ports, when the directional valve is in central position, or the pump is stopped. D Bi-directional control of the motion always metered by the pilot function: the pilot pistons modulate the openings of the relief valves which become counterbalance valves, and control the speed by metering the oil flow discharged from the motor. Motion is possible only in presence of pilot pressure, i.e. positive inlet pressure to the motor, also when the load tends to overrun. E Limitation of back-pressure at the motor exhaust ports especially during braking. The cross-over relief valves limit the braking pressure and transfer the exhausted oil to the other line in order to re-fill the motor and to prevent cavitation also during braking when no pump flow is delivered to either one of the motor ports.

Bosch Rexroth Oil Control S.p.a 146

RE 00171/02.07

MOTION CONTROL
F Additional functions in VF and PDRM versions(see schemes): VF version: it allows direct control of the mechanical parking brake, with the pressure delivered by a shuttle valve through C3 port. If it is necessary to limit the pressure to the brake, a pressure reducer cartridge may be incorporated into the valve between the shuttle and C3. For motion control of hydraulic motors, generally a high pilot ratio R is adopted in order to speed up motion and save energy; however, if the valve selected is a VF version, it must always be remembered that R must comply with the following limitations: the pilot pressure needed to open the relief cartridge and start motion must always be higher than the pressure capable to release the brake (generally 7 to 1520 bar). In fact, when motion is commanded in either direction, the pilot pressure must build-up to a level capable to release the brake before any motion starts. With hydraulic motors, the pilot pressure needed to open the counterbalance valve can be calculated by the following formula:

Ppil =

Pt - Pload R+1

and the lowest pilot pressure (Ppil) is:

(Ppil min) =

Pt - Pload max R+1


VF version

where: Pt = pressure setting (relief setting) Pload = load induced pressure R = pilot ratio Example: Pload max = 170 bar (maximum expected load induced pressure) Pt = 325 bar ( > 1.3 x 170 bar ) R = 8:1 (Pilot ratio) Brake release pressure: 17 bar

(Ppil min) =

325 - 170 8+1

bar = 17.2 bar > 17 bar

The selected motion control valve, with R = 8 : 1 and Pt = 325 bar, complies with the correct lowering sequence because the lowest pilot pressure is 17.2 bar > 17 bar: also with the highest load capacity, the holding brake is released before any motion of the hydraulic motor is started. If compliance is not met, a different pilot ratio or a different pressure setting must be selected. NOTE: for proper control of the parking brake, it is often necessary to add devices designed to delay the brake engagement after bringing the control spool in central position, until the motion has reached a definite full stop, without delaying the brake release at start (see scheme).

Bosch Rexroth Oil Control S.p.a 147

RE 00171/02.07

MOTION CONTROL

PDRM version: it has relief cartridges with two different pressure settings, both separately adjustable: a) high pressure setting for starting (oil flow from V1 to C1, or V2 to C2 ). b) low pressure setting for smooth braking during stopping (oil flow from C1 or C2), when the directional control valve is brought into the central position. PDRM version and recommended scheme High and low settings can be achieved because each relief piston is pushed by two springs, a main spring and a secondary spring, acting in opposite directions. When oil is flowing from V1 to C1 (or V2 to C2), the secondary spring is neutralized by the incoming flow and the relief piston is controlled only by the main spring: the line pressure is at its highest value when load must be put into motion. Vice-versa, when oil is discharged by the motor (from C1 or from C2) while braking, both V1 V2 ports are at low pressure (directional valve in central position), the secondary spring pushes the relief piston toward opening, and the pressure setting drops to its lowest value for smooth stopping. This PDRM version is most useful in slewing systems, or in traction of wheeled vehicles, since it provides automatic torque increase, at starting, without affecting deceleration. For correct performance, the directional spool should have open or restricted ports in central position. POSSIBLE SOLUTION

Check and metering valves

CHECK AND METERING VALVES


Bosch Rexroth Oil Control manufactures a complete range of check and metering valves, controlled by remote pilot pressure, designed for protection systems against hose failure for boom cylinders of hydraulic excavators. If chosen and calibrated to match the operating conditions of the excavators hydraulic system, these valve modules can lock and meter down the oil flow in the event of hose failure. Consequently, they become important components of load lowering systems for excavators and earth moving equipment which comply with the requirements of the European Standard EN 474 (ISO 8643), when the machines are employed to lift and handle suspended loads. These valves are available in different sizes: the smallest ones, designed for small machines, can be pipe mounted close to the boom cylinders, the larger ones, designed for medium and large machines, are optimized to match the port patterns (mostly SAE type flanges) and the space available at the cylinder inlets; they can be flange mounted onto the cylinder directly, simplifying plumbing, saving space and increasing safety. 1) Principles of operation A) Boom lifting: the oil delivered by the Main Control Valve reaches port V2, opens the check valves, enters and extends the cylinder through port C2.

B) Boom holding: the Main Control Valve is in neutral position and no flow is delivered to the cylinder. The pressure induced by the load inside the cylinder pushes back the annular check valves against the seats: the oil the cylinder is locked in a leak free mode and the boom is held stationary.

Bosch Rexroth Oil Control S.p.a 162

RE 00171/02.07

CHECK AND METERING VALVES

C) Boom lowering: lowering starts when the joysticks delivers enough pilot pressure to open the Main Control Valve to tank, and, at the same time, to push the main piston away from the check valve seat, allowing flow from C2 to V2. For compliance with the load lowering requirements of the European Standard EN 474 (ISO 8643), during the initial lowering stroke, the load induced pressure inside the cylinder needs to be withheld by the check and metering valve, while the Main Control Valve is already wider open to tank. For this reason, the cracking point and the metering curve of the hose burst valve need to be synchronized and matched against the metering curve of the main control spool. Note: according to the test procedure specified by ISO 8643, actual tests with the machine need to be performed in order to verify the compliance of the machine type to the test requirements.

D) Relieving: if pressure inside the cylinder increases above the selected setting, the poppet of the pilot relief cartridge (2) opens, the exhaust oil builds up pressure on the pilot piston and the main piston is quickly pushed to the right, overcoming the spring force. The valve operates as an internally piloted relief, balanced to back pressure in the oil return hose (from V2 to the MCV), and it opens fully so that the cylinder pressure may be exhausted through the main hose by the Port Relief Valve at the Main Control block.

The schemes shown indicate a flangeable version valve in its 4 main working configurations: the same principles apply also to the pipe mounted valves. The rear surface of the pilot piston, together with the main spring housing, are drained trough the T port to tank: the drained flow is negligible, and, for correct operation, it must be connected to a low pressure tank line, possibly the same tank line of the hydraulic joystick/servo-control system.

Bosch Rexroth Oil Control S.p.a 163

RE 00171/02.07

CHECK AND METERING VALVES


2) Valve fitting and connections The flange mounted valves are symmetrical: the same valve can be fitted on the right or left hand cylinder. Instead the pipe mounted valves are available as right hand version (A-VBC-DX) and left hand version (A-VBC-SX): the overall dimensions are shown in the relevant data sheet of this catalogue, and the proper version must be chosen according to the space available on the machine. Here is a complete layout showing 2 check and metering valves flange mounted to paired cylinders. Summary of connections: - - - - - Ports C2: one to each cylinder inlet. Ports V2: joined together and connected to the hose from MCV. Ports Pil (X): joined together and connected to the lowering line from the joystick. Ports T: joined together and connected to the joystick tank line. Ports E: joined together in order to equalize the pressures, and synchronize the valve openings when lowering.

The E ports are restricted to limit the eventual oil leakage in case of line rupture, as specified by ISO 8643. This scheme includes a tap to open the E E line to tank and to allow Emergency Boom Lowering, in case of loss of hydraulic power. On each valve, the ports not used are blanked-off by threaded plugs supplied together with the valves.

IMPORTANT NOTE: the explanations and the schemes here shown are given only for a general understanding of this valve range. More details are available in each data sheet of this catalogue, but, in case of new installations, for the final choice of the Check and Metering Valve, its pressure settings, its performance characteristics, etc., please consult the Bosch Rexroth Oil Control Service Network.

TECHNICAL DATA
Max. operating pressure: 420 bar (6000 psi) Max flow: 40 l/min (11 gpm) Steel body Weight: 1.8 kg (4 lbs)
This valve is designed to be pipe mounted on boom cylinders of hydraulic excavators, and, with specific adjustments, it can become part of load holding and load lowering systems designed to comply with ISO Standard 8643 (hose burst protection).

Upstream flow (V2 - C2) to the cylinder is free through a check valve, and reverse flow (C2 - V2) is locked/metered by a leak free spool (1) which provides fine metering in the initial opening stroke. The spool, normally held closed by an adjustable spring force, is remotely controlled by joystick pilot pressure; the pilot pressure required to move the spool is load independent because the spring is vented to Tank. The valve includes a small relief cartridge (2) which senses C2 pressure and opens under overload or shock conditions in order to pilot wide open the metering spool and to allow cylinder pressure to be relieved downstream through the main hose (V2) and through the main control valve.

Note: the Tank vented port must be connected to a low pressure tank line ( to the joystick tank line, or to tank directly). The Factory sealed E screw can be used for Emergency spool opening and boom lowering, in case of pilot pressure failure; once the emergency boom lowering is completed, the E screw must be restored to its original position and locked.

The Factory sealed E screw can be used for Emergency spool opening and boom lowering, in case of pilot pressure failure; once the emergency boom lowering is completed, the E screw must be restored to its original position and locked.

Upstream flow (V2 - C2) to the cylinder is free through a check valve, and reverse flow (C2 - V2) is locked/metered by a leak free spool (1) which provides fine metering in the initial opening stroke. The spool, normally held closed by an adjustable spring force, is remotely controlled by joystick pilot pressure; the pilot pressure required to move the spool is load independent because the spring is vented to Tank. The valve includes a small relief cartridge (2) which senses C2 pressure and opens under overload or shock conditions in order to pilot wide open the metering spool and to allow cylinder pressure to be relieved downstream through the main hose (V2) and through the main control valve.
