Product Overview
The ATOS DKE-1714 DC 20 is a high-performance direct-operated solenoid directional control valve engineered by Atos, a globally recognized leader in electrohydraulic component design. Operating on a robust DC solenoid actuation principle, this valve serves as a critical control element for directing, stopping, and regulating the flow of hydraulic fluid within complex industrial circuits. The DKE series is specifically designed for standard directional control applications where precise spool positioning and reliable shifting are paramount. Unlike variable displacement pumps, this component functions strictly as a flow-routing device, utilizing a precision-machined spool within a hardened steel body to manage fluid paths. The “DC 20” designation indicates a specific solenoid coil rating and voltage configuration, ensuring compatibility with standard industrial DC power supplies. This valve is engineered to provide leak-free operation and rapid response times, making it an essential component for sequencing operations in heavy-duty machinery.
