Catalog HY14-2500/US Sandwich Valves

Technical Information Series ZNS

General Description
Series ZNS counterbalance valve controls the actuator
movement at overrunning loads.
The return flow from the actuator is piloted and con-
trolled by the inlet flow to the actuator, ensuring a
cavitation-free lowering of the load.
The counterbalance valve operates as a pressure relief B
valve. The setting pressure is lowered by the pressure ZNS-AB01 ZNS-B01
in the inlet line. To ensure safe load holding the setting
pressure should be approximately 30% higher than the
max. load pressure.

Features
• Controlled movement loads.
• Load holding via leak-free poppet valve.
• Secondary relief protection for the actuator.
• Sizes:
ZNS-B01
ZNS*01 – NFPA D03 / NG6 / CETOP 3
ZNS*02 – NFPA D05 / NG10 / CETOP 5
