Directional Control Valves

Product Description

Continental Hydraulics PowrFlow^TM Directional Control Valves offer some of the highest flow and pressure ratings in the industry today. making them the perfect choice whether you are designing a new system or just simply trying to get more out of your current system. Superior performance and durability makes these Directional Control Valves a great investment.

With 12 standard spools, numerous specialty spools and 7 functions, these directional control valves can be ordered to meet the specific needs of your applications. Precise bore honing and spool grinding results in less cross-port leakage and less wasted energy

Spools also utilize U-groove machining making them more tolerant of contaminants than v-groove designs resulting in less spool hang-ups.

Controller options include solenoid, lever, air, soft shift and cam operators.

Features & Benefits

• High flow rates and low pressure drops reduce heat generation and increase efficiency
• Premium bore honing reduces crossport leakage
• Interchangeable spools for simplified field maintenance, and eliminate the need to change valve body when changing spools
• Below center-line mounting bolt position reduces body distortion that causes sticky spools
• Two-pin plug-in or DIN connection coils allow for quick replacement reducing down time
• All valves with optional electric box include indicator lights and electrical transorb surge suppression for coil protection and increased valve life
• Sealed wet armature solenoids provide maximum protection against moisture, corrosion and dirt

Options & Accessories

• Soleniod, lever, air, soft shift and cam control operators
• Low watt power
• Wide variety of electrical connections
• Hazardous environment solenoids (dust and gas classifications)
• Wash down
• Anti-shock option
• Double redundant monitoring packages and lockout valves
• Spool indication switches
• Patented DeAccelatrol® motion control valve
• Wide variety of bolt and stud kits for mounting modular stack valves

In the event of a component or system failure, the double redundant valve option (left) shuts down the system in a controlled manner to help avoid damage and injury.
