Shop 3-Position, 4-Way, Float Spool, Lever Operated Directional Control Valves
The 3-position, 4-way, directional, manual lever operated hydraulic directional control valve with a float spool is like a traffic cop for hydraulic systems. In its central position, it opens up all ports—pressure (P), tank (T), and both work ports (A and B)—allowing fluid to flow freely between them, creating a neutral or "floating" state. When the lever is shifted in one direction, pressure is directed to port A while port B connects to the tank, enabling a specific action. Shifting the lever in the opposite direction routes pressure to port B, with port A connected to the tank, facilitating a different action. Its spring return ensures it goes back to the neutral position when not in use, offering precise control over hydraulic machinery.
