The performance of proportional valves falls in the wide spectrum between on/off solenoid valves and electrohydraulic servovalves. The valves are termed proportional because output flow is not exactly ...

Equipment designers find that proportional control technology is ideal where precise performance is required in variable pressure or flow applications. Often perceived as more complicated than other ...

In power generation, solenoid valves perform critical functions such as controlling the flow of water, steam, fuel, and other fluids or gasses. Here are a few applications where solenoid valves prove ...

The proportional-control solenoids used in some industrial hydraulic systems are usually driven by microcontrollers or programmable logic controllers (PLCs). Such complex drivers typically require ...

For many projects that require control of air pressure, the usual option is to hook up a pump, maybe with a motor controller to turn it on and off, and work with that. If one’s requirements can’t be ...

When running any type of disc brake system on a car you need to remember which proportioning valve you should run. This is very important because the job of a proportioning valve is to distribute the ...

Rear wheels locking up while braking? You might need a new brake proportioning valve. When it comes to your vehicle’s braking system, several components are responsible for helping your vehicle come ...
