The ATOS DHI-0713-23 is a subplate-mounted directional control valve manifold from the high-performance AT3 series. It is designed for precise and reliable control of hydraulic actuators (cylinders or motors) in industrial and mobile machinery.
Decoding the Part Number: DHI-0713-23
-
DHI: This signifies it is a Directional control valve, Hydraulic actuated (pilot-operated), with integrated Inductive spool position transducers (sensors). These sensors provide electrical feedback on the valve spool’s position for closed-loop control and diagnostics.
-
07: Indicates the nominal size, corresponding to NG7 / CETOP 5 (DIN 24340). This defines the port sizes, flow capacity, and mounting interface.
-
13: Specifies the spool type. In this case, “13” is a 4/3 way valve (4 ports, 3 positions) with a closed-center spool in the neutral position. When not actuated, all ports (P, T, A, B) are blocked, holding the actuator firmly in place.
-
23: Denotes the type of pilot actuation. “23” typically means dual electromagnetic pilot valves (solenoids) with a manual override. It operates on a standard 24V DC supply.
Key Features and Specifications
-
Type & Function: 4/3 (4 ports, 3 positions) closed-center, proportional directional control valve.
-
Mounting: NG7 subplate mountable (ISO 4401-05-*-0-94 standard). This allows for easy installation and removal from a hydraulic manifold block.
-
Actuation: Proportional, electrically controlled. The main spool is shifted by two proportional solenoids (pilot valves). The electrical input signal (typically 0-10V or 4-20mA) proportionally controls the spool’s displacement, which in turn proportionally regulates the flow rate and direction to the actuator. This allows for precise control of actuator speed and smooth, controlled movements.
-
Feedback: Equipped with integrated inductive position transducers (LVDT type) on the main spool. This provides continuous, real-time electrical feedback of the spool’s exact position to the controller, enabling accurate closed-loop control and machine monitoring.
-
Flow Rate: As an NG7 valve, its maximum flow capacity is typically in the range of 40-50 liters per minute (L/min), depending on system pressure. Exact ratings should be verified from the official datasheet.
-
Maximum Operating Pressure: Standard for this series is up to 350 bar.
-
Manual Override: Includes emergency/manual override plungers for testing or moving the actuator in case of power failure.
