Comatrol has introduced the PFD10-OD Proportional Flow Divider for
compensated flow sharing between two motors or hydraulic circuits. This
circuit-saver solution takes the input flow and delivers precise flow
management, providing engineers with a new tool for distributing flow on
their applications.
The PFD10-OD is an electro-proportional, compensated, normally open,
flow dividing, pre-engineered HIC. When there is no current applied to
the coils, the inlet flow is divided equally between the work ports A
and B, with flows to 40 lpm (10.7 rpm). The flow ratio between the 2
ports will proportionally vary as current is provided to the coils (from
0 to 40 lpm out each work port). The valve’s internal pressure
compensation of both work ports provide the precise, repeatable and
load-independent flow control to both work ports / circuits.
