PARKER’S NEW CARTRIDGE VALVE WITH REVOLUTIONARY DESIGN SETS STANDARDS IN TERMS OF POWER DENSITY AND PERFORMANCE

Parker Hannifin, the global leader in motion and control technologies, has introduced a 2-way servo proportional valve as part of its TFP series, pioneering a new generation of cartridge valves. With the company’s patented VCD® actuator technology, the innovative design of sleeve and spool allows for previously unattainable flow and pressure drop values. The improved efficiency, compared to regular cartridge throttle valves, enables the use of smaller nominal sizes with the same output – and thus reduces the size requirements of the control manifold blocks.
