Product Overview
The Parker FM3DDDSV 55 is a modular flow control valve engineered for precise regulation of hydraulic flow rates within industrial power units and manifold-based systems. As part of Parker’s FM series of modular sandwich valves, this unit is designed to be mounted between a directional control valve and its subplate or manifold, providing accurate flow metering and pressure-compensated control without the need for additional piping. The valve operates on a spool-and-orifice metering principle, delivering stable flow regardless of downstream load fluctuations, making it an essential component for applications requiring synchronized actuator movement and repeatable cycle times.
