ZL70-31 Proportional, Bi-Directional Flow Control, (ZL70-31)
A solenoid-operated, electrically-variable, three-port, pressure-compensated, spool-type, normally open when de-energized, proportional, bi-directional, flow control valve. An internal compensator spool provides compensated flow across the proportional orifice regardless of flow direction.
Product Operation
The ZL70-31 provides regulated flow from port ➁ to port ➂, or regulated flow from port ➂ to port ➁. Port ➀ should be blocked. Regulated flow is inversely proportional to electric current applied to the solenoid.
Operation of Manual Override: To Engage: Turn clockwise approximately 1 turn to reach start point. Continue
another approximately 5 turns to full shift.To Disengage: Turn counterclockwise approximately 6 turns until positive stop
is found.
Product Features
• Excellent linearity and hysteresis characteristics.
• Hardened spool and cage for long life.
• Optional coil voltages and terminations.
• Effi cient wet armature construction.
• Manual Override option.
