Special Features:

Ambient temperature range is 20 degrees celsius to 70 degrees celsiu (-4 degrees fahrenheit to + 158 degrees fahrenheit); to obtain optimum service life from both fluid and hydraulic system, 65 degrees celsius(150 degrees fahrenheit) is the recommended fluid temperature, except for water-containing fluids; ensure that fluid viscosities stay within the limits specified in hydraulic fluids

Properties:

A manually or power operated valve having three or more ports. The direction of the flow through the various ports is controlled by either one or more reciprocating slide(s) or spool(s) with recess areas which mate with ports in an integral or replaceable ported sleeve, or one or more poppet(s). It is designed to change the direction of fluid flow from one valve port to another. An off (no flow) position is not a flow pattern. The valve is designed to actuate various components of a fluid system. A power operated valve may have a manual override. For items which stop, start, or change the flow of fluid, see: valve, solenoid. Excludes valve, plug.
