HD – MG/MK- Flow control valve
Control your hydraulic flow with absolute confidence using the HD MG/MK Series Flow Control Valves. Available through Thm Hydraulics, these robust components are engineered for demanding systems that require simple, highly effective fluid regulation. Designed specifically for direct in-line mounting via threaded connections, these valves offer pressure- and viscosity-dependent flow control. Available as either a standard Throttle Valve (MG) or a Throttle Check Valve (MK), the series effortlessly manages high-intensity operating pressures up to 315 bar and massive flow rates up to 400 L/min, making it a rugged, easy-to-install solution for both mobile and industrial machinery.
Core Technical Specifications:-
- Component Architecture: In-Line Throttle Valve (Type MG) and Throttle Check Valve (Type MK)
- Model Type: HD-MG / HD-MK
- Maximum Operating Pressure: Up to 315 bar
- Maximum Flow Capacity: Up to 400 L/min
- Flow Regulation: Pressure and viscosity dependent
- Mounting Style: Direct in-line threaded connection
Key Features & Engineering Advantages:-
- Dual Valve Configurations: Choose the MG series for straightforward, bi-directional flow throttling to regulate speeds in both directions, or select the MK series, which integrates a check valve to restrict flow in one direction while allowing free, unhindered bypass flow in reverse.
- Direct In-Line Mounting: The threaded body design allows these valves to be installed directly into the hydraulic steel piping or hoses. This eliminates the need for complex manifold blocks or subplates, making retrofits and field repairs incredibly fast.
- Pressure & Viscosity Dependent Control: The flow rate through the valve adjusts naturally based on the system load (pressure) and the temperature (viscosity) of the hydraulic fluid, providing a reliable, mechanical method for speed regulation without complex compensators.
- High-Volume Flow Handling: Despite their straightforward in-line design, the internal geometries are optimized to manage massive fluid volumes up to 400 L/min, ensuring minimal energy loss during the free-flow phase of the MK model.
- Rugged 315 Bar Durability: Forged to withstand continuous high-pressure cycles in harsh environments, ensuring the internal throttling mechanisms do not wear prematurely.
Ideal Industry Applications:-
The simple installation and heavy-duty 315 bar endurance make the HD MG/MK Series the premier choice for:
- Mobile & Agricultural Equipment: Regulating the operational speed of hydraulic motors and auxiliary cylinders on tractors, harvesters, and loaders where simple in-line piping is standard.
- Hydraulic Power Units (HPUs): Providing basic, reliable flow restriction for cooling or filtration bypass circuits.
- Simple Lifting Mechanisms: Tuning the lifting or lowering speeds of basic hydraulic scissor lifts, tailgates, and material handling platforms.
- Field Retrofits & Repairs: Acting as a quick, highly effective solution to add flow control to an existing machine without needing to machine a new manifold block.
Why Choose the HD MG/MK Series?
- Fast, Hassle-Free Installation: With standard threaded connections, your technicians can simply cut the line, thread the valve in, and immediately gain precise control over actuator speeds.
- Built for the Elements: The straightforward, heavy-duty design thrives in dirty, high-vibration environments where more complex valves might fail.
- Versatile Speed Control: Whether you need to slow down a motor in both directions or just cushion the drop of a heavy cylinder, the choice between the MG and MK gives you exactly the control your circuit needs.
