1CE300 Series Counterbalance Cartridge Valve, 1015-5075 PSI (Factory Setting At 3045.00), Screw with Locknut Adjustment, 3:1 Pilot Ratio

Description & Features

Designed for load holding and hose failure protection in mobile and industrial hydraulic circuits, the 1CE300 Series Counterbalance Cartridge Valve is a 3-port, externally piloted, screw-in cartridge valve with a 3:1 pilot ratio, a configuration well suited for applications where load variation or machine structure may contribute to instability. Typical uses include harvesters, refuse haulers, and similar mobile equipment.

Factory pressure is set at 3,045 PSI within an adjustable range of 1,015–5,075 PSI, with a maximum relief pressure of 5,000 PSI and a rated flow of 80 GPM. Adjustment is made via screw with locknut. Nitrile (Buna-N) seals are standard, with an operating temperature range of -22°F to +194°F. The cartridge requires an A6935 cavity for installation, sold separately. Recommended filtration is ISO level 18/16/13 microns or better. Note that pressures exceeding 3,000 PSI require a steel housing.

Question by: Johnny P on Jun 4, 2025, 4:43 PM
got a cylinder setup that likes to run away on the way down. is this the kind of valve that’ll hold the load and keep things from free-falling if a hose lets go?
Answer by: Customer Support on Jun 5, 2025, 8:40 PM
For controlling moving loads, a counterbalance valve like this is used to prevent load runaway and provide load holding plus hose failure safety. It regulates flow into and out of the actuator, and when it is mounted close to or within the actuator it can stop runaway in a hose burst situation.
Question by: Terry H on Nov 1, 2025, 6:54 PM
What kind of machines would you typically see this valve on?
Answer by: Customer Support on Nov 3, 2025, 8:29 AM
Common applications include harvesters and refuse haulers, plus other mobile and industrial equipment where you need to control moving loads. It's also good for preventing load runaway, giving you load holding and hose failure safety.
