APPLICATIONS
- Light oil. Gear set capacity
- One or two-pipe system. (see pump capacity curves)
- Normally associated with in-line solenoid valve.

in that case, the by-pass plug must be removed from the vacuum gauge port and the C : 10-20 bars

The valve also has a cut-off function* as follows :
During starting period when the gear-set speed is increasing, all the oil passes AJ 6 C C 1 000 4 P
through a bleed slot in the piston, back to the return. Once the speed reaches a certain
value and the flow can no longer pass through this bleed slot, then the pressure
increases rapidly overcoming the valve spring force and opens the valve. Flange mounting

During the stop sequence, the gear-set speed slows down and the valve closes when 000 : standard model

002 : by-pass nozzle
The cut-on and cut-off speeds depend on the gear-set size and set pressure. no cut-off function

cut-off function
Bleeding in two pipe operation is automatic, but it may be accelerated by loosening
the plug in a pressure gauge port. Revision number
In one pipe operation, a pressure port must be opened to bleed the system. Installation

* Owing to the presence of the nozzle by-pass hole, AJ 1002 models have no cut-off in vacuum gauge port
function. Cut-off must be provided by an external solenoid valve. for two-pipe operation
