3-Way Proportional

Pressure Reducing Valve

Spool Type, Pilot-Operated
Slip-In Valve – 60 bar
PDMC10S30P
Up to 40 l/min
Up to 60 bar

FUNCTION FEATURES
zzCompact design
zzExcellent dynamic performance
zzLow pressure drop due to CFD optimized flow path
zzControl pressure reduction is possible right down to 0 bar.
zzExcellent curve characteristics, also when there is inadequate primary pressure
(the max. control pressure is 1.3 bar below the primary pressure)
zzExternal surfaces corrosion-proof
zzHardened and ground valve components to ensure minimal wear and extended service life
zzApplication example: clutch control
zzScreen filter protects the pilot from contamination
