generation tipper control valves introduced at the Scottish Motor Show last week by Edbro.
The new control valves are interchangeable with Edbro's existing range of air, cable and mechanical controls.
The design incorporates a range of interchangeable piston-type relief cartridges with preset tamper-proof pressure settings from 105 to 250 bar. These enable an operator safely to tailor the pressure of the hydraulic system of his tipper to his varying needs simply by replacing the cartridge.
The new Edbro valves have return flow capacities of 25, 75 and 150 litres of oil per minute.
More positive hold of the tipped body is ensured by replaceable valve seats. Servicing is said to be greatly eased by the incorporation of pressure test points.
