Salami VDM8/VD8 02A ELECTRIC Kit ESA WIT

Description & Features

This high-performance electric kit by Salami S.p.A is engineered for demanding sectional applications requiring robust flow and pressure capabilities.

The ambient temperature range of 86deg;F to 140deg;F ensures stable performance across various environments. The fluid temperature range supported by standard NBR seals extends from -4deg;F to 185deg;F.

With a flow rating of 20 GPM this kit handles fluid viscosities between 12 cSt and 75 cSt optimally with a minimum of 10 cSt and a maximum of 400 cSt. Its internal leakage rate is between 1.52 to 2.13 insup3;/min. at 2285 PSI offering high efficiency.

Designed to withstand demanding conditions it boasts a maximum operating pressure of 5100 PSI on ports "P" "A" and "B " and a maximum back pressure of 363 PSI on the outlet port T. All technical data are based on tests with mineral oil of 16 cSt viscosity and a contamination level of 19/16 per ISO 4406 standards.

Question by: Tammy W on Dec 20, 2025, 9:10 PM

What kind of fluid should I be running in this thing?

Answer by: Customer Support on Dec 22, 2025, 6:34 AM

Optimal fluid viscosity for this kit is between 12 cSt and 75 cSt, but it can handle between 10 cSt and 400 cSt. Keep in mind all the testing data is based on mineral oil with a 16 cSt viscosity.

Question by: Warren H on Apr 10, 2025, 8:26 PM

What kind of pressure can this electric kit actually hold up to? Running a pretty demanding circuit and need something that ain't gonna give out under load.

Answer by: Customer Support on Apr 12, 2025, 6:52 AM

Ports P, A, and B are rated for a maximum operating pressure of 5100 PSI, which puts it well into heavy-duty sectional valve territory. The outlet port T has a back pressure limit of 363 PSI, so keep that in mind when designing your return line. Flow capacity tops out at 20 GPM, and optimal viscosity runs between 12 and 75 cSt, though the kit can handle anywhere from 10 up to 400 cSt if conditions call for it.

got a system that’ll see around 4500 psi on the work ports. is this section ok with that kind of pressure?

Answer by: Customer Support on Jun 7, 2025, 2:06 PM

Pressure-wise you are within the stated limits as long as it is on ports P, A, or B, since the maximum operating pressure there is 5100 PSI. Keep the outlet port T in mind too, because the max back pressure on T is listed at 363 PSI.
