FAQ

What is the recommended cavity size for installing the HAWE K2-16/315 valve?

While the "16" in the part number often suggests a size (e.g., NG16), it's crucial to consult the original manufacturer's datasheet for the precise cavity dimensions, including thread size, depth, and porting details, to ensure a leak-free and proper fit. Using the wrong cavity can lead to system failure.

What type of hydraulic fluid is compatible with this K2-16/315 valve?

HAWE valves are typically compatible with standard mineral oil-based hydraulic fluids (HL, HLP) according to DIN 51524. However, the seal materials determine compatibility with other fluids like biodegradable oils or water-glycols. Verify the seal material (often NBR or FKM) if you plan to use non-standard fluids.

How is the pressure setting adjusted on this valve?

This particular cartridge valve appears to have a fixed pressure setting, as there is no visible external adjustment screw or knob. The pressure setting is likely pre-set at the factory according to the full part number specification. If an adjustable pressure is required, a different valve model with an adjustment mechanism would be necessary.
