Series 95 Flow Control Valve:
Brand has decided to reinstate the Series 95 flow control valve. This valve functions the same as the FC51. Both work ports are pressure compensated and flow from the CF port can be varied from 0-19 gpm. It is compact in size and designed for panel mounting. The model codes for the three-port and two-port version are 95A-3/4 and 95A-3/42P respectively. For more information, please see our series 95 literature at www.brand-hyd.com.
Die-Cast Endcap:
Beginning this fall, Brand will start using a die cast end-cap on AO, SDCF, LS and TS valves. Overall length, where this end-cap is used, will increase by 4/10 of an inch. This end-cap is going to be used on all of the following options: spring centering (S), friction detent (F1), 3-position detent (D), spring offset (SO), spring offset (SO2), spring center/detent (SD), two-position detent (2D and D2), and spring center/friction detent (SF1)
AO and LS Castings:
Brand has improved its manufacturing processes on the AO and LS products. The savings will be passed onto the customer in applications that require large quantities at a competitive price. Please give the sales department a call for further information.
