Gas Valve 80759069: High-Pressure Solution for Hydraulic Accumulator Systems
This industrial-grade gas valve (Part Number: 80759069) is designed to regulate nitrogen pressure in hydraulic accumulators for rock drills, blast hole rigs, and underground drilling machines, ensuring stable fluid power delivery in high-pressure industrial applications. Engineered with precision and durability, it balances robust mechanical design with advanced sealing technology to meet the demanding needs of mining, quarrying, and tunnel construction.

Compatible Drill Rig Models and Applications

DD Series Tunnel Drills

  • DD422iE (Electric Hydraulic Jumbo)
    • Application: 3.44-5.88-meter tunnel driving with significant hydraulic system pressure fluctuations in tunnel construction.
    • Technical Match: Equipped with the RD520 rock drill, its hydraulic accumulator system relies on Gas Valve-80759069 to maintain high-pressure stability (35-40 MPa), ensuring consistent impact energy output during drilling.
  • DD322i (Compact Diesel-Powered Drill)
    • Application: Blasthole and bolthole drilling in narrow drifts (minimum width 2.7 meters).
    • Technical Match: The RDX5 rock drill’s hydraulic system uses this valve to regulate nitrogen pressure, reducing pressure surges that could damage the propulsion beam and drill rods.

DS Series Surface Drills

  • DS460 (Track-Mounted Surface Drill)
    • Application: Medium-to-deep hole drilling (hole diameters 89-165 mm) in quarries and mines.
    • Technical Match: The HPR400 rock drill’s hydraulic system employs Gas Valve-80759069 for pressure compensation, particularly enhancing drill tool lifespan in hard-rock conditions (compressive strength >150 MPa).

DI Series Down-the-Hole Drills

  • DI550 (Down-the-Hole Drill)
    • Application: Large-diameter deep-hole drilling (152-250 mm) in open-pit mines.
    • Technical Match: The COP 1838 rock drill’s hydraulic system uses this valve to stabilize impact frequency, especially in high-altitude environments (>2000 meters) or extreme temperatures (-20°C to +50°C).
Key Features
  • High-Pressure Resistance
    Constructed from heat-treated alloy steel with a corrosion-resistant nickel plating, the valve withstands operating pressures up to 40 MPa, making it suitable for high-impact drilling operations in hard-rock formations.
  • Precision Pressure Regulation
    A spring-loaded adjustment mechanism allows for accurate nitrogen charge calibration (tolerance ±1%), maintaining optimal hydraulic system pressure to enhance drill bit performance and reduce component wear caused by pressure fluctuations.
  • Leak-Proof Sealing System
    Double-lip seals made of high-temperature-resistant elastomers and precision-machined threads (SAE J518 standard) prevent gas leakage, even under extreme vibrations and temperature variations common in underground and surface drilling.
  • Universal Compatibility
    Designed to fit standard hydraulic accumulator ports (1/4 NPT or M14x1.5 threads), the valve works seamlessly with a wide range of drilling rig models and aftermarket accumulator kits.
Applications
  • Rock Drilling Equipment: Compatible with jumbos, crawler drills, and handheld rock drills used in hard-rock mining and construction projects.
  • Hydraulic Systems: Ideal for pressure stabilization in drill rig rotation, propulsion, and percussion circuits, as well as industrial machinery requiring consistent fluid power.
  • Maintenance & Repair: Suitable for replacing worn valves in hydraulic accumulators to restore system efficiency and prevent costly downtime.
Benefits for Industrial Operations
  • System Stability: Consistent pressure regulation reduces hydraulic shock, extending the lifespan of pumps, hoses, and cylinders by up to 20%.
  • Performance Optimization: Proper nitrogen charge ensures optimal energy transfer to drill bits, improving penetration rates in dense rock by 10-15%.
  • Cost Efficiency: Durable construction and leak-proof design minimize maintenance frequency and replacement costs, offering a low total cost of ownership.
Installation & Maintenance
  • Installation:
    1. Depressurize the accumulator completely before installation.
    2. Use a torque wrench to tighten the valve to 25-30 N·m (avoid over-tightening to prevent thread damage).
  • Maintenance:
    • Inspect for leaks using a soap bubble test during routine equipment checks.
    • Replace seals every 1,000 operating hours in harsh environments to maintain sealing performance.
  • Storage: Store in a dry, dust-free environment to prevent corrosion of metal components.
