Pressure Compensator
CP313-4
OPERATION
The CP313-4 is a 20-size, ow control, priority type pressure compensator. Priority-type pressure compensators
are four-ported valves that work in series with a xed or variable control orice. As with the restrictive-type
valves, these valves maintain a constant pressure dierential across the control orice. However, rather than
restricting ow when the dierential pressure becomes too high, the priority-type pressure compensators
open a fourth bypass port for all ow in excess of that demanded by the control orice. Note that if the bypass
port is blocked, the valve will function as a restrictive-type pressure compensator.
APPLICATION
Common applications include any circuit that requires compensated priority ow going to one actuator
(for example, steering or charge pressure to a hydrostatic pump), and a the remaining going to a secondary
function (for example, a fan motor). Pressure compensators oer the circuit designer capability to add
pressure compensation to any xed or variable orice. This ensures that ow, and resulting actuator speed, are
maintained regardless of system and working pressures
