CH16283-4MS - Hydraulic Distributor (Basic Configuration)

Hydraulic Distributor (Basic Configuration)
The Betts Hydraulic Distributor (CH16283) is specifically designed to facilitate control of a multi compartment hydraulic valve system while also ensuring critical safety functions of the system are not impaired. Individual control valves for each tank compartment are used to manually select which Primary Stop Valve (Emergency Valve) is actuated by operation of the Hydraulic Hand Pump. A closed Control Valve blocks the flow of hydraulic fluid from the Hand Pump to the Primary Stop Valve yet does not inhibit flow from Primary Stop Valve back to the Hand Pump. This unique and critical feature is required to ensure the proper function of the emergency shut-down system and also protects the system from over-pressurization due to possible hydraulic fluid thermal expansion. Note: Never install ball valves or standard shut-off valves in the hydraulic system.

See Engineering Bulletin EB-03-03 for plumbing schematics.
