Series E242 - Direct Drive Valve (DDV) Proportional Cartridge Valve for flow control with analog interface

This E242-200 Cartridge DDV is built for tough environments like motorsport and underwater exploration. It uses Direct Drive Valve (DDV) technology with a linear motor to control the flow spool, ensuring reliable performance and precise control.

The compact cartridge design is perfect for optimised packaging and is ideal for multi-axis applications.

Rated flow ranges from 0.6 to 18 lpm, high reliability, and can handle pressures up to 280 bar. Suitable for rally cars, automotive testing, oil and gas exploration, subsea thrusters, racing yachts, and autonomous robotics.
