The PWK12120WP is a normally closed,
spool type, pilot-operated proportional
ow control valve. Together with a
pressure compensator, which maintains
a constant differential between the inlet
pressure (port 1) and the outlet pressure
(port 2), it can be used as a proportional
ow regulator.
The energization of the coil reduces or
increases an orice cross-section via the
pilot stage and thus controls the useable
oil ow.
The spring tted between the main and
pilot pistons acts against the solenoid
force - this force feedback ensures that
the ow control piston always maintains
a stable position.
General
z Reliable and cost-effective proportional control of the ow by controlling the
position of the ow control piston using force feedback
z Smooth opening and closing
z Excellent dynamic performance
z Low hysteresis
z Excellent repeatability
z Optional internal damping of the control piston to dampen vibrations in
applications prone to vibrations such as lifting equipment
z All surfaces zinc-plated and corrosion-proof
z Coil seals protect the solenoid system
z Wide variety of connectors available
z All valve parts made of high-strength steel with hardened and ground components
to ensure minimal wear and extended service life
z Different ow rate ranges available
