5/3-way hand lever valve, pressure center, G 1/8, detented, 450 l/min - E.MC

When a double-acting cylinder with a defined center position has to be switched without any electrics, one move of the lever does it. The G 1/8 valve flows 450 l/min through a 3.4 mm orifice. In the center position both outlets are connected to supply pressure while the exhaust ports are blocked. All three lever positions are detented and stay put without holding force.

Advantages

• Pressure center: both cylinder chambers stay pressurized while the exhaust is shut
• Aluminum body and spool, NBR seals, working pressure 0 to 8 bar
• Runs on filtered air, lubricated or dry, no relubrication needed
• 3 supply and working ports G 1/8 plus 2 separate exhaust ports G 1/8, so each cylinder side can be speed-controlled individually

Applications

• Supporting a cylinder against external forces with pressure on both sides
• Two single-acting consumers that should both be pressurized in the center position
• Manual control of double-acting cylinders on special-purpose and test machines
