HYDAC Australia has released the PWK06J series of proportional directional flow control valves.
The 3 position 4-way valve has a screw-in cartridge and is solenoid operated.
Features and benefits
This valve is available in motor spool ‘J’.
It is a fraction of the size of other 3 position 4-way proportional directional valves and provides low flow accuracy and repeatability.
The valve’s internal leakage is less than 100 cc/min, hysteresis less than six percent, linearity within three percent, repeatability within three percent, and 12W ‘D’ or ‘P’ type coils are in all voltages and connections.
In addition, the valve is 1000-hour salt fog rust protected and can be used with DW06V for optimal pressure compensated operation.
Use with a DW06V inlet compensator ensures constant flow at any given control setting regardless of variations in pressure.
Use of a 200 psi compensator allows high flow up to 4 gpm, while a 100 psi compensator allows for excellent control at lower flows.
For less precise applications the valve may be used without a compensator.
The PWK06J series is fully interchangeable with the WK06E and J ON/ OFF valves, allowing great flexibility to machine builders.
The compact high-power coils allow multiple valves to be installed in a very small space (for example, six functions can be housed within an 8” long block).
