PEFC Series electronically adjustable proportional pressure compensated flow control, manufactured in USA by Brand Hydraulics.

The Brand, electronically adjustable proportional pressure compensated flow control is an electronically controlled version of the original FC51 style flow control valve. The EFC performance as a flow control is very similar to the FC51 because they both use the same spring and compensator spool. Thus, the control flow port (CF) and the excess flow port (EX) remain usable and pressure compensated. The main advantage of the EFC over the FC51 is that the flow can be adjusted proportionally with a solenoid instead of manually. As the current to the solenoid increases the variable orifice moves proportionally similar to positioning the rotary side lever on the manual FC’s. The solenoid is connected to our EC – series controls which can be sold with the EFC.

REVERSE FLOW

The free reverse flow option was designed to be used primarily where cylinders and motors are needed to go in reverse. The flow can only go in reverse from controlled flow (CF) to the inlet (IN). Flow is not metered when it goes in reverse. The steel ball seat inside the compensator spool is heat treated to assure a long life.

FEATURES:

• DIAMOND HONED SPOOL BORE provides consistent spool fit with low leakage.

• O’RING PORTS to eliminate leakage.

• EVERY EFC IS TESTED for shutoff, linearity, max. flow, crack open and pressure compensation.

• STANDARD 3-PORT allows for pressure compensated flow out of the CF and EX ports.

• MANUAL OVERRIDE when electrical power is lost.
