Directional Valve

A directional valve is a type of valve used in fluid power systems (such as hydraulic or pneumatic systems) to control the direction of fluid flow. These valves are crucial for controlling the operation of actuators like cylinders or motors, ensuring they move in the correct direction based on the desired function. Directional valves can be actuated in several ways, depending on the application: Manual Actuation: The valve is operated by a lever, button, or knob. Mechanical Actuation: Uses mechanical force to switch the valve. Pneumatic or Hydraulic Actuation: The valve is actuated using air or hydraulic pressure.
