EATON CBV1-10 Series Motion Control Valves

What are the different types of motion control valves?

Some common motion control valves include proportional valves, servo valves and pressure control valves.

• Proportional valves use an electrical signal to control the position of a spool inside the valve.
• Servo valves use a feedback loop to achieve precise control of the flow of fluid.
• Pressure control valves use the pressure of the fluid itself to control the valve.

How are motion control valves selected?

The selection of a motion control valve depends on the specific application and requirements. Factors to consider while selecting a motion control valve include flow rate, pressure, temperature and fluid type.

What is the difference between motion control and regular valves?

Regular valves can only permit the fluid flow, while motion control valves control as well as regulate the flow of fluid.

How do I know if my motion control valve is functioning properly?

There are a few signs of improper functioning, such as inconsistent movement or abnormal noise. Users can also measure the flow rate and fluid pressure to detect deviated readings.
