DESCRIPTION
A proportional solenoid-operated, 2-way, spool-type, normally closed, screw-in
hydraulic cartridge valve designed to operate as a bi-directional metering valve.
OPERATION
When de-energized, the SP08-24 blocks flow in both directions. When the coil is
partially energized, the valve begins to throttle flow. When fully energized, the valve
opens to allow full, bi-directional flow.
Note: If low voltage is expected on the machine, 12 or 24 volt systems will
require the use of 10 volt or 20 volt coils respectively. See “SP Valves and Coil
Operating Parameters,” page 2.002.1.
FEATURES
Industry-common cavity. Efficient wet-armature construction.
Continuous-duty rated coils. Optional waterproof E-Coils rated up to IP69K.
