AMCA Type C Direct Operating Control Valves

K-1 Fluid power has continued in its mission to ensure safety for hydraulic circuit components with our Kawasaki Series 10 control valves. These valves are a must have for any hydraulic circuit, especially one that features expensive components that would be damaged by the fluid moving in the wrong direction. As with our tradition, we offer our customers the most affordable prices ever to ensure you do not incur heavy losses in damage to circuit equipment.

Operation/Functioning

The working behind our AMCA control valves is simple yet very effective in ensuring fluid flows only in one direction. The valve consists of the housing, a spring, a poppet and input and output ports.

When there is no fluid flowing in the circuit, the spring keeps the poppet in the closed position. Immediately fluid begins to flow, the spring will compress allowing the poppet to open relative to the pressure of the fluid. The higher the pressure, the wider the poppet opens and vice versa.

If somehow an error occurs in the circuit setup and fluid attempts to flow in the opposite direction, the poppet will be shut ensuring the fluid does not damage expensive components like hydraulic pumps and filters.

Distinctive Features

The features that set our valves aside from other valves include:

  • Durability: our valves are proven to withstand high pressure of forward flow and are sturdy to hold fluid from flowing backwards even at high pressure. The valves can withstand up to 315 bar and offer the longest service life in the market.
  • Diverse options: you can choose between in-line threaded connection and angled sub-plate connection depending on your circuits configuration.
  • Temperature range: our valves can handle fluid with a temperature anywhere between -20 degrees Celsius to 70 degrees Celsius.

As ever, we at K-1 Fluid Power offer the most affordable prices in the market. Regardless of the nature of your hydraulic system, you can be sure we have the right control valves to ensure you do not damage components. Do not wait until you have to replace expensive circuit parts or until you cause a major accident. Get your control valve now!
