    06 Regeneration Valves

    The regeneration valves provide smooth and fast operation of hydraulic cylinders by regulating oil flow. They allow oil to flow into and out of the cylinder chambers to displace oil faster during lifting and lowering. The pilot-operated flow valve includes a restrictor and check valve that act as a pressure damper for smooth valve movement and cylinder operation.

    The regeneration valves are fitted in the Lift/Lower

    (2) & Extend/Retract (1) hydraulic circuits.

    The function in either circuit is the same.

    Their function is to provide smooth & fast operation


    of the hydraulic cylinders.

    No adjustments can be made.


    No flow from the lift control valve.
    Regeneration spool remains in its central
    position (Spring Loaded ). No flow to the
    cylinders.

    The oil displaced from the upper
    chambers of the cylinders will be
    diverted into the lower chambers
    of the cylinders. This flow adds to
    the flow from the lift control valve P
    to give a faster lift speed.

    When the pressure in the lift line reaches
    200 bar the regeneration valve will move
    across to allow excess flow from the top
    chambers back to tank.

    For lowering the valve moves to allow the oil
    from the lower chambers of the cylinders to
    return to tank. The lowering is gravity
    influenced, some oil will flow into the top
    chambers to prevent any cavitation.
