There is a high demand on hydraulic components regarding reliability, life time, working performance and efficiency. ARGO-HYTOS meets this requirement by providing CETOP valve bodies machined on robotized production working units and finished on CNC honing machines with automatic feedback. The main features of ARGO-HYTOS CETOP valves include powerful solenoids, and 5 or 3 chamber design.
The directional valves size 06 and size 10 are optionally equipped with an inductive contactless normally open and normally closed spool position sensor which is needed for machines where a risk might appear. The modular proportional valves are used for continuous flow rate control and also for changing the flow direction in case of using a valve with two solenoids.
The latest development of the proportional valves PRM9 are sophisticated valves, optimized according to computational fluid dynamics simulation, characterized by an intelligent control unit in a robust metal housing.
In the pilot operated directional valve size 06, the pilot spool is controlled by solenoids and the main spool is controlled by hydraulic power. The selected concept increases the achieved output parameters of the proportional valve in comparison to a direct controlled proportional valve.
