AJ : pressure regulation
COMPATIBILITY
V : B30 applications
- Domestic oil, HVO, B30 (biofuel blend with the addition of 30% FAME, as defined
Gear set capacity
in DIN SPEC 51603-6), kerosene.
(see pump capacity curves)
- One or two-pipe system.
Shaft rotation
- Normally associated with in-line solenoid valve.

PUMP OPERATING PRINCIPLE A : clockwise rotation/

The gear set draws oil from the tank through the built-in filter and transfers it to the B : clockwise rotation/

C : anti clockwise rotation/
the nozzle line will be by-passed through the valve back to the return line in two pipe left hand nozzle.

in that case, the by-pass plug must be removed from the vacuum gauge port and the right hand nozzle.
return port sealed by steel plug and washer. Pressure range
B : 7 - 15 bars
The valve also has a cut-off function* as follows : C : 10 - 20 bars
E : 10 - 28 bars
During starting period when the gear-set speed is increasing, all the oil passes through A : 0,5 - 3 bars
a bleed slot in the piston, back to the return. Once the speed reaches a certain value K : kerosene
and the flow can no longer pass through this bleed slot, then the pressure increases applications
rapidly overcoming the valve spring force and opens the valve.

During the stop sequence, the gear-set speed slows down and the valve closes when
the gear-set capacity is lower than the bleed slot flow.
