133978 - FLOW REGULATOR CP342-1-B-0-1020 - DANFOSS

This is a fixed ratio flow divider/combiner valve. In dividing mode, flow enters port 3 and passes across two fixed orifices in linked spools. If the pressure drop through one orifice is higher than the other, then the spools will move together to restrict the flow in the lower pressure outlet port. This maintains equal pressure drops across the spools, thus maintaining the flow division in the outlet ports. In combining mode, flow will enter ports 2 and 4 pass through the orifices, which causes the spools to move to restrict the higher-pressure inlet and maintain equal pressure drops and equal flow into the valve. The CP342-15 provides synchronizing flow to the opposite port in the event that one port is completely blocked.
