Parker Hannifin’s latest range of modular directional control valves can improve the operational efficiency and versatility of mobile equipment, such as cranes, refuse vehicles, excavators and forklifts. The high-performance P70 pressure-compensating spool valve range offers high levels of efficiency and accuracy, resulting in more consistent control of mobile equipment, and leading to a significant reduction in fuel consumption.
The P70 valves have recommended flow rates of 70litre/min, and are able to withstand system pressures of up to 350bar. The stackable system can be supplied in combinations of one to ten spool sections, with manifold sections also available for added flexibility. Furthermore, the valves can be remotely controlled, electrically, pneumatically, or hydraulically.
The valves are robustly constructed, and their compact dimensions ensure a high level of functionality even in space-limited applications. The series comprises three versions, including the P70CF with an open centre for fixed pumps, the P70CP with a closed centre for variable displacement pumps, and the P70LS with a closed centre and load sensing signal.
