Loop Flushing Block
LFB12
The Loop Flushing Block is designed to help sustain
high quality working fluid in a hydraulic transmission
circuit. By allowing oil to drain from the power
transmission loop to other oil treatment components,
the LFB12 assists in the process of removing
contamination and cooling oil.
Ports A and B are connected to the work ports of the
main transmission circuit. Port DR is connected to the
transmission case drain return line. Ideally, the return
line would flush through the motor case before
returning to the reservoir.
The low pressure side of the circuit is sent to the relief
valve, which is then drained out of the transmission
loop. The amount of flow drained from the loop can
be determined by adjusting the relief valve setting
and installing an optional orifice. With a wide range of
relief valve settings and orifice sizes, the LFB12 can be
fine-tuned to match the machine’s optimal drain rate.
