Application
The symbols in a diagram show connections, flow paths and
function of the components in the system, but does not show the
design of the components.
NOTE!
In a hydraulic diagram the valve symbols are always drawn in
neutral position.

Valve symbols
The basic element of a valve symbol is a square box. One box is
shown for each position that the moving part of a valve (spool or
V1031936 similar) can take up.
Fig.1 Valve symbol

If the valve does not have fixed positions, but can be operated
steplessly, this is shown with parallel lines along the valve symbol.

V1031935

Fig.2 Valve symbol, steplessly controlled valve

Internal flow paths and flow directions are drawn in the boxes.
Line connections to the valve are drawn to the box that shows the
valve position when other components are actuated according to
V1031934
the diagram.

 Interpretation of valve symbols
In a three-position valve the spool can be placed in three
positions, which in the symbol are represented by one box for
each position. The box that represents the intended position is
drawn between the line connections, which means that the
appropriate connecting paths in the valve are shown in the
diagram.
The position in the diagram
The spool is centred in neutral position by the springs. The inlet
is connected to the outlet through the spool.

Imagined position for piston movement outwards

The spool is actuated with the lever so that the plus side of the
cylinder is connected to the inlet at the same time as the minus
side is connected to the tank.
