    Regenerative circuits use speed valves to route fluid exiting a hydraulic cylinder back to its cap end, increasing extension speed. Speed valves connect simply between a double-acting cylinder and directional control valve. They allow high-speed, low-pressure regenerative extension by interconnecting the cylinder's A and B ports. During retraction, the speed valve routes fluid out of the A port directly to tank for normal speed. Scanwill offers compact speed valves for applications requiring high-speed extension.

    Ideas & Applications

    Regenerative circuits made easy

    egenerative circuits save time and


    energy by increasing the extension
    speed of double acting cylinders. They
    do this by routing fluid exiting the rod
    end of the cylinder back to its cap end
    instead of routing the fluid to tank.

    Scanwill SV series speed valves


    make it simple to produce regenerative, double-acting hydraulic cylinder performance by adding a standard
    component to a conventional circuit.

    PRESSURE TRANSMITTERS

    Speed valves allow easy incorporation of


    flow regeneration into circuits simply by
    connecting the valves three ports between
    a double-acting hydraulic cylinder and
    directional control valve.

    speed valves are piped between a cylinder and its directional control valve.

    Normal speed
    during retraction

    Functional schematics show high-speed,


    regenerative extension and normal-speed
    retraction using Type SV speed valve.

    rectional control valve commands the


    cylinder to retract, the spring and pilot
    signal at the opposite end of the speed
    valve automatically shift it to send
    flow out of the A port directly to tank.
    Rated for pressures to 500 bar, four
    SV series models handle flows of 40,
    50, 120, and 200 lpm. They suit new
    installations or retrofits. These compact units are only 115-mm long and
    35 mm in diameter. All fluid connections have 38-in. BSP threads. Speed
    valves do not affect cylinder retraction.
    When power is important
    SV-type speed valves are intended
    for applications where high-speed
    extension is important, not hydraulic
    power. A variation is the SVA type
    speed valve, which achieves both
    high speed and full cylinder force. It
    provides high-speed, low-pressure regenerative extension until a predetermined load pressure is encountered.
    The valve then automatically shifts to

    Functional schematics show operation of Type SVA speed valve. High-speed extension is
    achieved by routing flow from the pump and the cylinders rod end into the cylinders cap
    end. When a predetermined load pressure is reached, the valve shifts to route only pump
    flow to the cap end and routes return flow from the rod end to tank.

    allow the full force of the cylinder to


    be applied.
    Operation of speed valves is completely automatic; no additional controls are needed. Typical applications
    include presses, waste compactors,
    mobile equipment, and machine tools.
