The valves are used for water or oil hydraulic control systems. They can also be used as pilot-control valves.

Special features
The valve is characterized by fast response times. The solenoid plunger of the electromagnet is dual-supported and thus protected against wear. By means of a diaphragm seal between the pushrod and the solenoid plunger chamber the control electromagnet is protected against dirt and humidity. The arrestable manual operation device can be accessed by removing the type plate and is thus also protected against any accidental operation. The electric magnet and all other control elements can each be rotated through 90°. All wear parts are easily accessible and quick to replace.
(Valve is closed when magnet is de-energized)
Fig. 1 (electromagnet de-energized):
The pressure spring (2) presses the valve ball (4) via pushrod (3) into the valve seat (5). The pressure of the medium in infeed “P” supports the pressure spring action (2). Thus the passage from infeed “P” to working line “A”is blocked.
Fig. 2 (electromagnet energized):
When the electromagnet (1) is switched on, the solenoid plunger (6) presses the valve ball (4) - via lever (7) and pushrod (8), and against the force of the pressure spring (2) and the pressure of the medium in the infeed “P” - from its valve seat (5). Now the passage from infeed "P" to working line "A" is clear.
(Valve is open when magnet is de-energized)
Fig. 1 (electromagnet de-energized):
The pressure spring (2) lifts the valve ball (4) via pushrod (3) from the valve seat (5). Thus the passage from infeed "P" to working line "A" is clear.

Now the passage from infeed "P" to working line “A” is blocked.
(Valve passage from "P" to "A" is closed when magnet is de-energized)
Fig. 1 (electromagnet de-energized):
The medium fed in via infeed "P" presses the valve ball (4) into the valve seat (5), supported by the pressure spring (2). Thus the passage from infeed "P" to working line "A" is blocked.
Fig. 2 (electromagnet energized):
When the electromagnet (1) is switched on, the solenoid plunger (8) presses the valve ball (6) - via lever (9) and pushrod (10), and against the force of the pressure spring (2) - into the valve seat (7). Now drain "R" is blocked. At the same time, using the spacer pin (3), the valve ball (4) is pressed out of the valve seat (5), so that the passage from infeed "P" to working line "A" is now clear.
(Valve passage from "P" to "A" is open when the magnet is de-energized)
fig. 1 (electromagnet de-energized)
The pressure spring (2) lifts the valve ball (4) via pushrod (11) into valve seat (5). The medium flowing from infeed "P" to the working line supports the pressure spring action. Thus the drain "R" is blocked and the infeed "P" is connected to the working line "A".

Now the infeed "P" is blocked and the working line "A" is connected to drain "R".
