Proportional Electro-Hydraulic Directional and Flow Control Valves

These valves are double-deck directional and flow control valves employing
as their pilot the electro-hydraulic proportional reducing valves with two
proportional solenoids.
The flow rate can be controlled by changing an input current to the solenoids
and the direction of the flow can be controlled by providing the current to
either solenoid of the two.
By combining the valves with the power amplifiers specially designed for the
valves, the speed control and directional control can be done with a single
valve, which eventually makes the hydraulic circuits sim ple and contributes
the cost of the hydraulic systems.

1 : Rated flow : At valve pressure drop 1.0 MPa.
2 : Take care to keep the difference between the pilot pressure and drain port back
pressure consistently greater than 1.5 MPa.
3 : To obtain staple performance, keep the drain port back p ressure low and minimize
its fluctuations.

Applicable Power Amplifiers Note

For stable performance, it is recommended
that Yuken's applicable power amplifiers be
used (AMN-W-10T)
To ensure stable control , bleed the air from solenoid completely and fill the iron
core with oil. For this purpose, it is recommended to pr ovide the drain line with
a check valve having a cracking pressure about 0.04 MPa.
In the event of an electric fault emergency, a manual shift can be made by screwing
in the manual adjustment screw. Take care, however, that this manual shift has no
flow adjusting function.
