The proportionally operated flow control valves, series SRR (the line-mounting design), combine compact design with high power density. The optimized design of the pressure compensator ensures constant speeds at the hydraulic actuator. The valves can be used as 2-way or 3-way units. As the 3-way version, they divide the inlet flow into a constant-flow / priority-flow portion and a surplus-flow portion. The surplus flow can be pressurized.
