FCM End Stroke Valves.
End Stroke valves are primarily used to divert flow and release pressure at the end of a cylinder stroke or possibly a motor-driven door or gate movement.
Once a cylinder or other component reaches the end of its stroke the valve actuator will be mechanically forced inward, this opens the valve which will release pressure ensuring no component damage due to forcing a component too far. They are also used in crane and access equipment to provide safety interlocks when the unit is rotating.
Available in 3/8” and 1/2” BSPP, the FCM range offer maximum flow rates of 40 or 60 litres per minute at 350 or 300 Bar operating pressure.
