SDCF Series 1-Spool Monoblock Valve With Pressure Comp. Flow Control, 4-way 3-position, Tandem Center Friction Detent Spool, 0-12 GPM Flow Range

With the pressure compensated by-pass type flow control built in, flow out of each work port stays constant even when the load changes. Lever movement still sets the flow, but the pressure compensation helps keep the actuator speed consistent as conditions vary.

Pressure compensation is built right into this valve, so the flow to your work port stays steady regardless of what the load is doing. The output is directly tied to lever position, not system pressure fluctuations. Whether your load lightens up or spikes, the flow out of that work port holds constant. That's the whole point of the bypass-type pressure compensated design on this series.
