Hydraulic Monoblock Solenoid Control Valve, 5 Spool, 21 GPM, 12V DC Hydraulic Monoblock Valves are a style of Hydraulic Control valve. These valves start and stop fluid flow into hydraulic cylinders or hydraulic motors. The number of cylinders or motors that a control valve can operate depends on the number of spools on a valve. The flow rate listed is the maximum allowed GPM (Gallons Per Minute) that can be put through a valve. A common example of a hydraulic control valve is the loader valve on a tractor. Common Uses: Operate hydraulic cylinders (Double-Acting or Single-Acting). Grapples (Tilt/Raise Cylinders). Box Blade (Height Adjustment). Install rear remotes on a tractor. Operate Winches ( A Spool) Raise/Lower Dump Truck Bed ( A Spool) Operate Cylinders for Snow Plows ( A Spools) A Spool (Controls Double Acting Cylinders) All spools are double acting with spring return to neutral position, A spool controls double acting cylinders A and B ports are closed to Tank in neutral position. Benefits: Precision ground and hard chrome-plated spools assure a long life. High-tensile strength cast iron monoblock construction. SAE O-Ring ports ensure solid seal and prevent blockages. Used for open center systems (Pump to Tank Flow). Adjustable Relief Valve Range: 1500 to 3625 PSI. Manual Override Features: 12 Volt DC Solenoids. DIN 43650 3 Prong Connectors. Max Operating Pressure: P = 3625 PSI, T = 725 PSI, A & B = 4350 PSI. Preset Pressure Relief: 2610 PSI. Flow Rating: 21 GPM (80 l/min). A & B Work Ports: #10 SAE O-Ring (7/8-14) Thread. Inlet Port: #10 SAE O-Ring (7/8-14) Thread. Outlet Port: #12 SAE O-Ring (1-1/16-12) Thread. N Port: #12 (3/4 14) G Thread (British Pipe Thread Parallel).
