Shop 3-Position, 4-Way, Motor Spool, Lever Operated Directional Control Valves
The 3-position, 4-way, directional, manual lever operated hydraulic directional control valve with a motor spool is like a traffic signal for hydraulic systems, but with a twist. In its neutral position, it blocks pressure (P) while allowing both ports A and B to connect to the tank (T), like a red light for both directions. Shifting the lever in one direction directs pressure to port A, activating an actuator, while port B connects to the tank, like a green light for one direction. Shifting the lever the other way routes pressure to port B, activating another actuator, while port A is connected to the tank, like a green light for the opposite direction. Its spring return feature ensures it returns to the neutral position when not manually activated, providing control and safety in hydraulic systems requiring bi-directional control.
