The LSLV-08 is an L Series ball type shuttle valve cartridge for a C08-3 cavity. It selects the higher of two inlet pressures and sends it to one outlet. The valve is rated to 3,480 psi and 4 gpm, with an anodized aluminum alloy body rated for -15°F to +250°F.
A shuttle valve has two inlets and one outlet. Inside, a ball sits between two seats. Whichever inlet carries the higher pressure pushes the ball against the opposite seat, which closes off the lower pressure inlet and connects the higher one to the outlet. When the pressures reverse, the ball moves across and the other inlet takes over.
That makes a shuttle valve a simple piece of hydraulic logic. It picks the working pressure from either side of a circuit and passes it on, with no electrical signal and no operator input. The ball design has one moving part.
The C08-3 is a three-port cavity: two inlets and one outlet. No ported body is listed for this part number, so it fits a manifold or line body machined for that cavity. Confirm the cavity, flow and pressure for your circuit before ordering.
