General DescriptionThese two-stage Pressure relief Valves (based on VICKERS type CG2V valvesfeatured in catalog 2323) offer extensiveapplication possibilities through theirability to control the Pressure setting inproportion to an applied electrical input(up to a Pressure limit which is manuallyadjustable and lockable).Two model types are availableKCG-6/8 The valve responds to variations ofcurrent input to its solenoid, for whichseparate VICKERS drive amplifiers, withPWM output stage and output currentcontrol, are Proportional pilot control stage is aVickers type KCG-3 valve, described incatalog addition of an integral amplifierallows the Pressure to be controlled froma 0 to +10V, or 0 to 10V commandsignal range.

3 The amplifier is mounted ina robust metal housing and electricalconnections are via an industry standard7-pin plug. Factory-set adjustmentsensure high reproducibility and Benefits With or without integrated electronics. Remote electrical Proportional controlof Pressure from a choice of fivepressure ranges per valve size. Excellent repeatability and stableperformance results from cartridgedesign of mainstage elements. Low installed cost and spacerequirement from high power/sizeratios (more than double that of manyconventional designs).
