2. Key Features and Technical Advantages
2.1. Compact and Modular Design
• Single-Piece Body: Reduces installation complexity and leakage risks.
• Stackable Modules: Supports customization with additional functions (e.g., shuttles, check valves, flow regulators) via modular expansion.
• Lightweight Construction: Aluminum or stainless steel body for corrosion resistance and reduced weight.
2.2. Precision Control and Performance
• High Flow Capacity: Rated flows up to2,000 Nl/min(depending on port size and spool type).
• Adjustable Spool Functions:
• 5/2-Way (Double Acting): For bidirectional cylinder control.
• 3/2-Way (Single Acting): For spring-return cylinders or vacuum applications.
• Custom Configurations: Tandem, latching, or proportional control available.
• Multiple Actuation Methods:
• Manual Lever: Spring return or detent-style for sustained positioning.
• Solenoid-Operated: 12V/24V DC or 110V/220V AC for automated control.
• Mechanical Pilot: For direct linkage to moving parts (e.g., cams, rollers).
• Air Pilot: Remote operation for complex systems.
2.3. Durability and Robust Construction
• High-Quality Materials:
• Anodized aluminum or stainless steel body for corrosion resistance.
• Hardened spool and sleeve for extended wear life.
• Advanced Sealing Technology:
• Low-friction, high-temperature-resistant seals (NBR, FKM, or PTFE).
• Anti-extrusion rings to prevent seal failure under high pressure.
2.4. Safety and Protection Features
• Integrated Exhaust Silencers: Reduces noise during valve operation.
• Anti-Cavitation Design: Minimizes wear and noise in high-flow applications.
• Overpressure Protection: Optional pressure relief valves to prevent system damage.

6. Selection and Installation Guide
6.1. Selection Criteria
• Load Requirements:
• For dynamic loads (e.g., robotic arms), choose a high-flow, quick-response valve.
• For static loads (e.g., clamping), a lower-flow, precise-control valve may suffice.
• Actuation Method:
• Manual for simple, infrequent operations.
• Solenoid for automated or remote control.
• Mechanical pilot for direct linkage to moving parts.
• Environmental Conditions:
• For washdown or corrosive environments, select stainless steel or IP69K-rated models.
6.2. Installation Tips
• Orientation: Install horizontally to prevent air traps and ensure proper valve operation.
• Piping: Use high-quality, flexible hoses to minimize vibration and stress on the valve.
• Filtration: Maintain air quality (ISO 8573-1 Class 5 or higher) to prevent spool sticking or seal damage.

7. Maintenance and Troubleshooting
7.1. Routine Maintenance
• Visual Inspection: Check for leaks, corrosion, or loose fittings.
• Seal Replacement: Replace seals every 2–3 years or after significant wear.
• Filter Cleaning: Clean or replace pneumatic filters regularly.
