Eaton Corporation has introduced a high-flow, proportional pressure relief valve with integrated control electronics and industry standard 7-pin connector hook-up. The KBCG5-3, complements Eaton’s known KB proportional valve series by extending flow capability up 40 litre/ min whilst offering all the same features and functions of the range.
Features offered by the new KBCG5-3 valve and common to all units in the KB range as standard include: on-board digital electronics with ramp adjustment; IP65/67 environmental protection; choice of voltage and current command supply; five different pressure settings; hysteresis and linearity stability; and electrical power down ‘failsafe’ protection.
In addition to these features, the KBCG5-3’s integral amplifier is pre-programmed with preset pressure ratings to help ensure consistent pressure gain settings and valve-to-valve performance repeatability.
Options include voltage or current command supply and an external valve enable function.
