The Hydraforce 5003461 (5003461) is a solenoid-operated, 2 port, normally open, poppet type proportional, screw-in hydraulic cartridge valve designed for precision and reliability in load-holding applications. This model stands out due to its ability to maintain low leakage, ensuring efficient operation and energy conservation. The valve operates by allowing flow from port 2 to port 1 when de-energized; however, the flow from port 1 to port 2 is significantly restricted under these conditions. Partial energization of the valve initiates throttling of the flow from port 2 to port 1, and when fully energized, the valve’s poppet closes completely on its seat to block this flow direction entirely. Key features of this model include a continuous-duty rated coil and an efficient wet-armature construction that enhances its durability and performance longevity. Additionally, it offers optional waterproof E-Coils that are rated up to IP69K, providing resistance against dust and water ingress which makes it suitable for harsh environmental conditions. The Hydraforce 5003461 also benefits from an industry common cavity design that facilitates easy installation and maintenance while maintaining a compact size that is advantageous for systems where space is at a premium. This combination of features makes the Hydraforce 5003461 an optimal solution for various hydraulic system applications requiring precise control and reliable load-holding capabilities.
