DIRECTIONAL VALVES
PD16-S51 Piloted 3-Way Spool
DESCRIPTION
A screw-in, cartridge-style, pilot-operated, spool-type, hydraulic directional valve.
OPERATION
When in neutral the PD16-S51 allows flow between ports 2, 3 and 4. On remote pilot
signal at 1, the valve’s spool shifts to block all ports. The spring chamber is vented to
the tank through port 5. The vented spring chamber allows the valve to be fully pres-
surized at ports 1, 2, 3, and 4 without affecting required pilot pressure. Pressure at
port 5 will affect required pilot pressure.
FEATURES
• Hardened spool and cage for long life.
• 70, 90 and 140 psi bias springs available.
