The 2-position 3-way / 4-way valve (pumps 9592, 9572, or remote, 9593,) is a solenoid operated valve. If the pump is
equipped with an internal outlet check, a hold position can be obtained by stopping the pump. The pump may be
stopped by using a pressure switch or the proper type remote hand control. See the Power Team catalog for
additional switch and control information and part numbers.
The valve is designed to be used with either spring return or double-acting cylinders. hen the valve is used with
spring return cylinders, the valve must have one port plugged (either "A" or "B"). Both ports must be used with
double-acting cylinders.
hen using more than one remote control valve in a system, each control valve should have a check valve such as
Power Team 9580, in both the pressure and tank ports. See the Power Team catalog for additional check valve
information and part numbers. The tank port check valve prevents the uncontrolled extension of a retracted single-
acting cylinder when other valves are shifted. The pressure port check valve prevents the uncontrolled pressure loss
and possible resulting retraction of an extended single-acting cylinder when other valves in the system are shifted.

Either oil port "A" or "B" must be plugged on the valve. ith port "B" plugged, the sequence of operation is as follows:
hen the solenoid is energized to position "A", oil port "A" becomes pressurized. hen the solenoid is energized to
position "B", oil port "A" becomes the return port.

hen operating multiple single-acting cylinders, one pressure line from one bank can be connected to oil port "A" and
the other can be connected to oil port " B" on the valve. The sequence of operation is as follows: hen energized to
position "A", oil port "A" becomes pressurized and clamps the fixture connected to oil port "A". At the same time, oil
port "B" becomes a return port for the cylinder connected to oil port "B" and retracts it. The opposite happens when
solenoid "B" is energized.
<B/920A6;4F96;12?@
hen operating double-acting cylinders, oil port "A" can be connected to either the advance or return port of the
cylinder and oil port "B" will be connected to the remaining port. Sequence of operation is as follows: hen solenoid
is energized to position A, oil port "A" becomes pressurized and extends the cylinder and oil port "B" becomes the
return port. The opposite happens when solenoid B is energized.
The application in Figure 3 represents a typical set-up using a control valve and multiple double-acting cylinders (one
double-acting cylinder may also be used).
The application in Figure 4 represents a typical set-up using a control valve for each of the double-acting cylinders.
Check valves should be used with each control valve in this system.
If a different set-up or cylinder is being considered, call Power Team Technical Services at 1-800-477-8326 to avoid
any potential problems.
