The design uses the concept of pressure compensators integrated in the control spool to achieve very low pressure loss. This feature, together with the downstream system for flexible parallel actuation and the high degree of modularity, makes this proportional directional valve suitable for very adaptable application in mobile machines. The additional functions that can be incorporated, the high power density combined with high actuator flow rates of up to 180 L/min and the possibility of combining two different valve sizes in one control block round off the LVS08 / LVS12 proportional directional valves. They make up a flexible and compact modular valve system.
The valve blocks can be configured for fixed-displacement or load-sensing pump systems.
Advantages
