- For directional valves with two solenoids, one solenoid must be
de-energized before the other solenoid can be charged.
- For AC voltage supply use coils with connector type E5.
- For other solenoid voltage supply options see datasheet HA 8007.
- The solenoid operated valves are delivered without connectors.
For available connectors see datasheet HA 8008.
- The orifice to the P port can be ordered separately, see datasheet HA 8010.
- Mounting bolts M5 x 45 DIN 912-10.9 or studs must be ordered separately.
Tightening torque is 8.9+1 Nm (6.56+0.7 Ibf.ft).
- Besides the commonly used valve versions shown other special models are available.
Contact our technical support for their identification, feasibility and operating limits.

Typical configurations of the valve with a sensor:
3-position valve with two solenoids, equipped with two sensors
2-position valve with one solenoid, equipped with one sensor on the solenoid side
2-position valve with a detent assembly of spool, equipped with one sensor on the side of the solenoid
which moves the spool from the basic position to the switched position according to the spool symbol
Note: the sensor always indicates the change of spool position realised by the energised solenoid,
mounted on the side of the sensor.
Function of the position
sensor:
In the basic position (when
the solenoid is switched off),
a steel core, connected to
the spool, is under the position
sensor. The sensor is activated,
it means contacts of the sensor
S1 are closed and contacts of
the sensor S4 are open. After
switching on the solenoid
the spool with core moves out
of the sensor range
and the sensor is deactivated.

Spool Speed Control in millimeters (inches)
Dimensions in millimeters (inches)
Designation T1 Important:
This directional valve provides the means to control spool soft shifting by an orifice situated
in the solenoid armature. To ensure the proper function of the valve, unobstructed venting
of the solenoid is required through the bleeding plug (1). The plugs are accessible after
removing the rubber boot (2) from the solenoid cap nut (3).
The valve spool can be adjusted manually by pushing on the tightened bleeding plug.
