The Hydraforce 5028345 (5028345) is a solenoid-operated, 4-port, 3-position, direct-acting spool type screw-in hydraulic cartridge valve designed for precise control in hydraulic systems. This model features a continuous-duty rated solenoid and a hardened precision spool and cage that ensure long life and reliability under rigorous conditions. The operation of the valve is straightforward: when de-energized, it blocks the inlet port while allowing flow from ports 2 and 4 to port 1. Energizing coil 1 permits flow from port 3 to port 4, and from port 2 to port 1; similarly, activating coil 2 allows flow from port 3 to port 2, and from port 4 to port 1. This valve is distinguished by its efficient wet-armature construction and the ability to have all ports fully pressurized, enhancing its versatility in various applications. It offers optional coil voltages and terminations to accommodate different system requirements, along with a manual override option for additional operational control. For environments requiring robust protection against dust and water ingress, there are optional waterproof E-Coils rated up to IP69K available. The unitized, molded coil design contributes to its durability and consistent performance. Furthermore, the Hydraforce 5028345 fits an industry-common cavity which facilitates ease of installation and maintenance. This valve is ideal for applications requiring reliable directional control of fluids in hydraulic circuits across various engineering contexts.
