Directional Control Valves

TR Engineering’s DC Series directional control valves are ideal for applications where extremely low leakage and high reliability are mandatory. They are widely used for ground support and hydraulic systems.

DC Series Valves

  • Three Position, Detented, 4-Way Valves (Except 2-Way)
  • Constructed of heat-treated aluminum and alloy steels
  • Special seal designs to eliminate pressure loss when shifting from one position to another
  • Extremely low inter port leakage
  • Normal operating temperature range is -40 degrees F to +160 degrees F with standard nitrile seals
  • CV factor of .9
  • Back pressure should not exceed 250 PSI for satisfactory operation
  • For the manifold version, valves are supplied with 3/8″ – 16 high-strength mounting bolts
  • DC Series valves weigh approximately 2½ pounds each.
  • Panel Mountable

NOTE: Mounting is not a standard pattern.
