239 Beau Geste, IRC 52, Cookson Boats, Botin Partners Naval Architecture © Paul Stubbs MVP valve panels Harken offers a complete line of lightweight, low-profile valves and manifolds for hydraulic systems. Harken standard valves are half the weight of most styles, with Grand Prix versions sculpted to eliminate more weight. An independent pressure-relief function in each valve allows you to match the hydraulic power to each individual function’s working loads. An adjustable flow control integrated into each valve fine-tunes the speed of release. High-strength, lightweight • Valves, manifolds, standard valve panels corrosion-resistant, hardcoat-anodized aluminum; stainless fittings for strength. • Lightweight composite handles textured, contoured for secure grip. Valves with independent relief, release, and flow match system loads • Each valve has independent pressure relief for individualized pressure adjustment. • Each valve has integrated adjustable flow control for fine-tuning release speed. • Minimum flow rate is 8 L/min (2.1 gpm). • Pressure relief and release combined into one part saves weight. HYDRAULIC VALVES & MANIFOLDS DO NOT use Harken equipment for human suspension unless product is specifically certified and labeled for such use. Standard GrandPrix Short shaft Relief valve Double-acting Long shaft Single-sided manifold Double-sided manifold Remote dump valve Handle socket • Inline relief valves: control maximum sys- tem pressure; inline relief valves work with any manual system, manifold-mount reliefs fit Harken manifolds. • Remote dump valves: ease sail controls from helm, rail, other positions on boat; use as quick release or regulate speed with optional adjustable flow control. • Single- and double-sided manifolds accom- modate up to nine valves for multiple functions. Options • Standard valves and manifolds handle up to 5,000 psi; sculpted Grand Prix valves and manifolds handle up to 10,000 psi. • Valves offered with short and long shafts: short shaft fits 3 mm-thick deck/panel; long shaft 4 mm to 25 mm-thick deck/floor. • Double-acting valves for traveler controls, other functions using twin or double-acting cylinders. Valve handles fit in four directions for easy operation • Inverted handles on double-sided mani- folds have same open/closed positions; rotation direction for easy access. • Valve stems have tapered shaft to fit handle socket for secure, tight fit.
