Flow control

[luscsmith]

The flow control you linked to is the valve I am looking at. Can I run it off the remotes I currently have? Can I tee off the ports that operates my loader where there is pressure and return capabilities: I could run lines to the flow control and mount all of that permanent then install quick connects on the valve.

Thanks again, Scott

Look at this link again, toward the bottom, and it will show how to connect it.

I think I know how it is plumbed but where would be the best source for the oil pressure and the return?

Thanks. Scott

You could plug it into your remotes, or feed the input from the pump and use the excess for another valve down steam.

If you did get the fluid from the remotes, you will have to bungee the lever, and run the output of the hyd motor back to the reservoir.

I knew JJ would show up and save the day.:thumbsup:

JJ, where would you tie into the pump? Could I tee into the loader lines for the pressure and return lines? If I returned to the sump via the fill plug would that aerate the fluid?

Thanks, Scott

You can not tee into pressure lines, only the return.

That valve could go before the loader valve, or after.

I believe I would use a motor spool valve, and the connections would be easier , and you would have reverse for the hyd motor.

It depends where you put the valve, as to how the rest of the hyd system will operate. If the source of the motor fluid is upstream, the hyd motor will use all or most of the hyd fluid, and the rest of the system will get none. If you add it after the loader valve, then the loader operation will decrease flow to the hyd motor when used. So it really depends on how important the hyd motor attachment is to the operation of the hyd system. .

One other thing, will the motor operate at max speed or do you have plans for varying the speed of the motor?

Does your loader have PB?

 

[luscsmith]

I will change speeds.
I was looking at the valve you referenced, is that a motor spool valve?

Scott,

This is an 8 GPM motor spool valve, with PB.

This is a 14 GPM motor spool valve.

This is a hyd speed control valve, which varies the flow by opening an orifice to limit flow. It has no reverse.

JJ, what is the difference between a spool valve and a motor spool valve?
Do I need a motor spool valve and a flow control?
Where would be the best place to get and return the oil?
