These valves are intented to replace the traditional mechanical or hydraulic-compensating (i.e. slave cylinder) systems used on front loaders to maintain the bucket in a fixed attitude during raising and lowering.
The valves make use of flow dividers to synchronise the lift and bucket cylinder movements such that the bucket remains in the same attitude whilst moving up and down. The ratio of the flow division is adjustable to suit the ratio between the lift and bucket cylinder size. This system is applicable to open, closed and load-sensing circuits and is intended (amongst others) for such applications as: - Tractor front loaders - Skid-steer loaders - Small wheeled-loaders, etc.
This small, easily connected valve offers highly repeatable levelling and low internal leakage.
