Directional Control Devices
Directional control devices can be grouped in four general
classifications:
Shut-off or two-way valves
Check valves
Three-way valves
Four-way valves

Directional Control Devices
The primary purpose of shut-off valves is to block fluid
flow through a hydraulic system line:

Ball valve
Spool valve

Directional Control Devices
The primary purpose of check valves is to allow free
flow in one direction while preventing reverse flow.
Other functions include:
Bypassing components during the return cycle of
the system
Providing flow resistance to maintain a minimum
system pressure required for pilot operations

Directional Control Devices
A standard check valve consists of a valve body containing a
one-way valve located between inlet and outlet ports:
The one-way valve allows fluid flow through the valve
in only one direction
Some designs contain a spring that seats the valve
poppet or ball
In other designs, the poppet is seated only by fluid flow
13
![Page 14: HYDRAULICS & PNEUMATICS Presented by: Dr. Abootorabi Directional Control Valves 1.](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102509/56649d975503460f94a81379/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Directional Control Devices
Restriction check valves allow free flow in one direction and
restricted flow when flow direction is reversed.
This is accomplished via a metering orifice machined into the
poppet.

Directional Control DevicesPilot-operated check valves can allow reverse flow through the valve:
Typically, pilot pressure opens the valve
In some designs, pilot pressure may also hold the valve shut to
block flow in both directions

Directional Control Devices
Three-way directional control valves provide
a means to extend rams and single-acting
cylinders.
The actuator is returned to its original
position by an external force:
System load
Spring built into the actuator17

Directional Control Devices
During extension, the three-way valve connects the actuator
inlet line to a system supply line, allowing fluid to enter and
extend the unit.
During retraction, the valve blocks the supply line and
connects the actuator line to a system return line, allowing
external force to return the actuator to its original position
while directing displaced fluid to the reservoir.

Directional Control Devices
Four-way directional control valves provide a means to power
actuators in either direction:
Valve has four external ports for connection to system
supply line, reservoir, and inlet and outlet of the actuator
Internal structure of the valve allows the ports to be
alternately connected when a change in actuator direction
is necessary

and retraction.

Directional Control Devices
Four-way directional control valves are typically manufactured as two- or three-
position valves. This provides several operating options when designing
circuits.
22
Typical two-position, four-
way valve (4/2-way valve ):
![Page 23: HYDRAULICS & PNEUMATICS Presented by: Dr. Abootorabi Directional Control Valves 1.](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102509/56649d975503460f94a81379/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Directional Control Devices
In two-position valves, the first position operates the
actuator in one direction, while the second position reverses
the direction.
In three-position valves, a center position is added that
provides additional circuit operating characteristics.

Directional Control Devices
The center position affects directional control characteristics
and overall system efficiency.
Each style provides distinct operating characteristics that
allow hydraulic system designers to obtain maximum
performance from a system.

Directional Control Devices
A number of activation
methods are used to shift
the internal components of
directional control valves.
Five general categories:
Flow actuation
Manual operation
Mechanical operation
Pilot operation
Electrical operation
28
Flow actuation uses internal fluid movement to actuate
the valve. No external mechanism or force is used.
![Page 29: HYDRAULICS & PNEUMATICS Presented by: Dr. Abootorabi Directional Control Valves 1.](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102509/56649d975503460f94a81379/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Directional Control Devices
Manual operation methods include:
Handwheels
Levers
Push buttons
Foot pedals
These devices require constant operator presence and
are typically found in less-complex systems.

Directional Control Devices
Mechanical operation methods include:
Rollers
Cams
Levers
Rams
Mechanical operation is often used when the opening
and closing of the valve must occur at a specific
position in actuator travel.

Directional Control DevicesPilot operation uses system pressure to activate the
valve, rather than physical labor.
This method is effective when:
Larger forces are need to shift the valve
Remote operation is required because of safety or
tight physical factors
32

Directional Control DevicesElectrical control of hydraulic systems is common in many
types of equipment:
Simple solenoid devices to shift basic valves
Electronic controllers operate proportional solenoid
valves to produce extreme accuracy and repeatability

Directional Control Devices
Multiple-position directional control valve may be held
in a desired position using springs or detents.
Springs are located on the ends of the valve spool to
return the valve to its normal operating position.

Directional Control Devices
Detents are locking devices that hold the spool in a
selected position:
The spool may be held until the operator manually
shifts the valve
Increased system pressure at the end of an
operation may automatically shift detent valves
back to the normal position
