DESCRIPTION
A solenoid-operated, 4-port, normally-closed, proportional, poppet-type, screw-in
hydraulic cartridge valve for low-leakage blocking and load-holding applications.
OPERATION
When the SPCL16-40 is energized, the poppet lifts to allow flow from port 4 to ports
1, 2, and 3. Flow at ports 2 and 3 is typical for load sensing applications and includes
a check valve for isolation.
FEATURES
Industry-common cavity. Efficient wet-armature construction.
Continuous-duty rated coils. Optional waterproof E-Coils rated up to IP69K.
Reduce manifold space claim.
