Product Description

Continental Hydraulics PowrFlow™ Directional Control Valves offer some of the highest flow and pressure ratings in the industry today, making them the perfect choice whether you are designing a new system or just simply trying to get more out of your current system. Noted for superior performance and durability, Continental Hydraulics Directional Control Valves are a great investment.

With 12 standard spools, numerous specialty spools and 7 functions, these directional control valves can be ordered to meet the specific needs of your applications.

Precise bore honing and spool grinding results in less cross-port leakage and less wasted energy. These precision valves also allow for interchangeable spools for easy field maintenance and eliminate the need to change valve body when changing spools.

Spools utilize U-groove machining making them more tolerant of contaminants than v-groove designs resulting in less spool hang-ups. Bolt heads are below the spool centerline to reduce the body distortion that can lead to sticking spools and loss of production.

Control options include solenoid, lever, air, soft shift and cam operators.

All valves are 100% tested and come with a standard 3-year warranty.

Continental Hydraulic’s CAD/CAM system takes the design directly from computer to high-speed CNC machining centers. Set ups are fast and multi-part designs are no problem. Continental can easily produce directional control valve variations for even greater flexibility.

Features & Benefits

• Pressures ratings to 5000 PSI and standard high pressure core tubes, provide greater design flexibility
• High flow rates and low pressure drops reduce heat generation and increase efficiency
• Premium bore honing reduces cross-port leakage
• Interchangeable spools for simplified field maintenance
• U-groove machining on spool lands significantly reduces spool hang-up that cause loss of production
• Below-center line mounting bolt position reduces body distortion that cause sticky spools
• Two-pin plug-in or DIN connection coils allow for quick replacement reducing down time
• All valves incorporating the electric box option include indication lights and electrical surge suppression for protection and increased valve life
• Sealed wet armature solenoids provide maximum protection against moisture, corrosion and dirt.
• Compact design fits tight spaces for easier installation
