It is intended for the Service Training Instructor, mechanic, and those personnel who need a basic understanding of pressure compensated implement control valves. We will study the operation of implement control valves used in the 416-446 Backhoe Loaders, G- Series Motorgraders, D4H-D8N Track Type Tractors, and 916-936 Wheel Loaders (IT18B/IT28B). PROGRAM OBJECTIVES Upon completion of the broadcast the student will be able: To identify all major components and explain their function. To explain how the valves react to changes in flow requirements and work port loads. To trace flow through the valves for the different valve positions discussed. To successfully complete a short quiz following the program on the material covered. PREREQUISITES Students need a good working knowledge of hydraulics. If they were not able to participate in the first program of this series held on May 11, 1990 titled “Introduction to Load Sensing/Pressure Compensated Hydraulics”, then it is suggested they review a tape of the broadcast. Note: Participants will watch the program on TV monitors, and will be able to ask the instructor questions during the presentation. Site coordinators will receive one set of handouts prior to the program to be duplicated and distributed to viewers prior to the start of the program This handbook will help reinforce the information being presented in this program. The student should complete the handbook as directed by the program instructor. A quiz will be given upon completion of this program to assist the dealer instructor in determining the effectiveness of the instruction. ‘STUDENT HANDOUT #1 FLOW CONTROL VALVE ORIFICE DUMP VALVE The is sized for a certain amount of flow. Excess flow is returned to the tank by using a The difference in pressure between the red oil and the red and white striped oil is controlled by the in the dump valve. If the pressure differential across the orifice remains constant the rate through the orifice is also constant. ‘STUDENT HANDOUT #2 FLOW CONTROL VALVE PRESSURE REDUCING VALVE Excess flow is restricted by using a The pressure reducing valve senses the pressure on both sides of the The difference in pressure between the red and white striped oil and the red dotted oil is controlled by the in the pressure reducing valve. If the across the orifice remains constant the flow rate through the orifice is also constant. STUDENT HANDOUT #3 PRESSURE COMPENSATED FLOW CONTROL SYSTEM SIGNAL, PASSAGE PRESSURE DOUBLE MAIN CONTROL, (CHECK VALVE SPOOL TOTANK Our orifice size is now determined by the position of the spool. The double check valve senses the work port pressure and sends it to the STUDENT HANDOUT #4 LOAD SENSING / PRESSURE COMPENSATION ae lowe ae) In a Load Sensing/Pressure Compensated Hydraulic System with a variable displacement pump the highest work port pressure is also sent back toa through a network.
