DESCRIPTION
A screw-in, cartridge-style, pilot-operated, spool-type, hydraulic directional valve for
three-way circuits requiring remote pilot actuation.
OPERATION
In neutral (unpiloted), the PD42-M42 allows fl ow passage between ➂ and ➁
while
➃ is blocked.
On remote pilot signal at
➀, the valve shifts to open from ➂ to ➃, while blocking
fl ow to
➁.
Note that
➃ is common to the spring chamber. Pressure on ➃ will directly (1:1) affect
required pilot pressure and must always be added to the bias spring value.
Note: Consult factory for applications where bi-directional fl ow is required when the
valve is in the piloted position.
FEATURES
• Hardened spool and cage for long life.
• Optional sealed pilot.
• Industry-standard ISO cavity.
