4/3 and 4/2 on-off directional valve elements
with fl ow sharing control (LUDV concept)
RE 18301-11
Edition: 02.2016
Replaces: 07.2012
General specifi cations
Valve element with direct on-off fl ow sharing control.
It can achieve multiple simultaneous manoeuvres by
distributing the available fl ow to each actuator selected
by the operator, independently from the working
pressure required.
All simultaneous movements go on at the same reduced
speed in case of fl ow shortage.
Each energized actuator receives a pressure
compensated fl ow.
No shuttle valve fi tted.
Control spools directly operated by screwed-in
solenoids with extractable coils.
Wet pin tubes for DC coils, with push rod for mechanical
override; nickel plated surface.
Manual override (push-button, screw type or lever)
available upon request.
Different plug-in connectors available: see ordering
details.

The sandwich plate design directional valve elements
L8511… are compact direct operated pressure
compensated solenoid valves which control the start, the
stop, the direction and the quantity of the oil fl ow, with a
FLOW SHARING principle. These elements basically consist
of a stackable housing (1) with a control spool, two
solenoids (4), two return springs. When energized, each
solenoid (4) displaces the control spool from its neutral-
central position “0” and the metering notches are open;
fl ow is delivered to the 3 way pressure compensator
followed by a check valve for each port A and B. The
compensator, balanced by the LS pressure at the opposite
end, lifts up and unloads a pressure compensated fl ow
which is sent to the A (or B) port through the relevant
check valve; at the same time the opposite port allows oil
return to tank.
LS pressure reaches the compensator “dead end” directly
from the A or B port, while the check valves lock eventual
pressure oscillations which could affect the compensator
function.
When the solenoid is de-energized, the return spring
pushes the spool thrust washer back against the housing
and the spool returns in its neutral-central position.
Each coil (4) is fastened to the solenoid tube by a ring nut
(7). A pin allows to push the spool under emergency
conditions, when the solenoid cannot be energized, like in
case of voltage shortage.
