This is a 5-way, 3-position, spool type, direct acting solenoid valve. In the center condition, ports 2 and 4 are connected to port 3, and port 5 and 1 are blocked. By energizing one coil, port 5 opens to 2 and 1 and port 4 to 3. When energizing the other coil, port 5 will be open to 4 and 1, port 2 connects to 3. This valve provides a directional control function with a neutral de-energized state with the service lines open to tank allowing pressure to decay. Port 5 and port 1, which is normally used as a load sense port, are closed. The valve can be used in any hydraulic application where an actuator needs to be controlled in both directions needing a load sense line to activate a pump controller. Always check the operating envelope to make sure the valve will work under the required application conditions
