Detent Kit for Hydraulic Hand Lever Valve, Positions 1 & 2

As standard, every lever section springs back to neutral when you let go. With this kit, the lever stays in position 1 or 2 until you move it back by hand, so you do not have to hold it during a long stroke, for example when running a hydraulic motor. The kit fits one lever section. For a detent in one position only, choose the kit for position 1 or position 2.

Pros:

• Lever stays in position 1 or 2, no need to hold it
• Retrofits to a standard lever section
• Returns to neutral only when moved by hand

Cons:

• No return to neutral from position 1 or 2 - the actuator keeps running until the lever is moved back

Series:

Modular hydraulic hand lever valves for mobile and industrial machines. A control block is built from an inlet section with an adjustable pressure relief valve (40 to 320 bar), one to nine hand lever sections and an outlet section, clamped together with the tie rod set for that number of sections. Lever sections are double-acting with A and B blocked or open to tank in neutral, or single-acting with A blocked. In neutral, the pump flow returns pressureless to tank through a neutral bypass channel. The levers spring back to neutral as standard; detent kits hold them in position 1, 2 or both. An optional kit gives closed centre for a variable displacement pump, or power beyond to a second block. P and T ports G1/2, A and B ports G3/8. Inlet pressure up to 320 bar, return pressure max 35 bar. Nominal flow 50 l/min for blocks with 1 or 2 lever sections, 45 l/min for 3 to 5, 40 l/min for 6 or 7 and 35 l/min for 8 or 9. Steel and plastic bodies, NBR seals, for mineral oil of 10 to 300 mm²/s from -30 to +90 °C. Also known as sectional control valves.
