Directional Control Valves

Get More Info

Directional control valves manage the flow path of hydraulic fluid within a system, directing it to the appropriate actuator or motor. These valves can be manually, mechanically, or electronically operated, allowing for precise control over movement and positioning. Common types include spool valves and poppet valves, which vary in complexity depending on the application. They are essential in industrial automation, mobile machinery, and heavy equipment, ensuring efficient and responsive operation. Their ability to control hydraulic circuit direction makes them a fundamental component in hydraulic systems.
