Technical features

This valve is a 3-way, meter-in, electro-proportional throttle. The flow path, unenergized, has the supply blocked at port 1 and port 2 connected to tank at port 3. Energizing the coil generates a closing force on the spool, creating a metering orifice in the 1 to 2 direction that is proportional to the coil command current. The valve self-compensates in the 1 to 2 direction and with the addition of an external compensator will provide pressure compensated flow control. Flow in the 2 to 3 direction is not proportional.

The transition between positions is closed.
Using 2 3-ways to create a 4-way allows one to choose existing flow ranges instead of cutting a special spool.
These valves may be pressure compensated by an external, modulating, logic element. Use LR_C-XHN for a bypass circuit or LP_C-XHN for a restrictive circuit.
The valve provides a degree of self-compensation and may be used as a flow control. To increase the accuracy of flow control, an external, modulating, logic element can be used to maintain a constant flow over a wider range of flows and pressures. See performance curves for additional information.
All ports will accept 5000 psi (350 bar).
All configurations of this valve include zinc-nickel plating as standard for 1000-hour salt fog protection.
This valve can be used with both the 740 Series high-power coils and 747 Series hazardous location coils.
A wide variety of coil termination and voltage options are available, with and without surge protection. See the CONFIGURATION section.
Coil connector options offer ratings up to IP69K. See individual coil product pages for details.
Incorporates the Sun floating style construction to minimize the possibility of internal parts binding due to excessive installation torque and/or cavity/cartridge machining variations.
