VICKERS FAR1-12-S-A12T

Description & Features

Rated to 350 bar (5,000 psi) with a maximum flow rate of 95 litres per minute, the Vickers FAR1-12-S-A12T is a pressure-compensated flow control valve with free reverse flow, designed for reliable performance in demanding mobile and industrial hydraulic circuits. The 3/4" port size and compact build make it a practical fit where space and weight are considerations.

This FAR1-12 Series valve is well suited for use in harvesters, refuse haulers, and a range of mobile and industrial equipment. Pressure compensation maintains consistent flow regardless of load variation, while the free reverse flow configuration eliminates the need for a separate check valve in many circuit designs. The combination of compact dimensions and a robust pressure rating makes this an economical choice for original equipment and replacement applications alike.

Question by: Connie S on Nov 2, 2025, 6:09 PM
Got a harvester that's been giving me fits with inconsistent cylinder speed every time the load changes. Would a pressure-compensated valve like this one actually hold the flow steady under those conditions?
Answer by: Customer Support on Nov 4, 2025, 7:09 AM
Pressure compensation on this valve actively works to keep flow consistent regardless of load variation, so yes, that's exactly the kind of problem it's built to handle. Whether your harvester's hydraulic load is light or heavy, the valve adjusts internally to maintain the set flow rate. That inconsistent cylinder speed you're dealing with is a classic symptom of an uncompensated circuit, and swapping in this FAR1-12 should bring a lot more predictability to your operation.
