Five Easy ways to Reduce Your Hydraulic Footprint
Our multi-function valves incorporate two or more functions into a single cartridge valve. By combining functions, not only do we reduce the number of valves in your manifold -- we also reduce space claim, the number of ports, and costly cross drills, while increasing flow passage efficiency. 1. Improve Load-Sensing Efficiency Our patented SVCL and SPCL valves combine integral piloting and load...

Hydraulic Cartridge Valves feature built-in position sensing.
Available in sizes from 10-16, Smart Hydraulic Cartridge Valves with built-in sensing option are capable of transmitting On or Off signal for position-sensing in hydraulic systems. Sensing option consists of coupling tube with common solenoid valve on one side and hydraulic valve assembly on other. Coupling tube has elongated plunger with Hall Effect sensor element that monitors and transmits...

Pressure Bypass Compensator Valve delivers priority on demand.
Screw-in, cartridge-style HEC32-43 provides priority flow in required amount while allowing excess flow to be used for auxiliary functions. It is rated for flows to 140 gpm, as continuous pressures to 5,075 psi, and intermittent pressures to 6,090 psi. Used for steering and priority flow applications that require high flow, this pressure compensator with dynamic load sense is suited for...
