PRODUCT FAMILIES
Valve
families.
The functions in the Fluid-Press cartridge catalogue and sample model codes.
Relief valvesPRESSURE RELIEF
Direct-acting and pilot-operated relief valves.
Sequence valvesSEQUENCE
Valves that bring a second circuit into action once a set pressure is reached.
Pressure reducingPRESSURE REDUCING
Valves that hold the pressure of a sub-circuit at the set value.
Check and pilot-operated checkCHECK · PILOT OPERATED
Check valves that allow flow in one direction and open on a pilot signal.
Shuttle valvesSHUTTLE
Valves that select the higher-pressure of two sources.
Flow restrictorFLOW RESTRICTOR
Restrictor valves that limit the flow.
OvercenterOVERCENTER
Valves that hold the load and lower it under control.
Electric valvesELECTRIC VALVES
Cartridge valves operated by a solenoid.
Also hose burst valves and excavator valves. Symbols are simplified to the ISO 1219 notation; the manufacturer’s catalogue governs current series and codes.
FLOW MAP
The larger the cavity,
the higher the flow.
Model, cavity and maximum flow for direct-acting relief valves. Source: Fluid-Press catalogue.
The A018, A020 and A260 models with SAE 08 cavity run up to 350 bar; body in zinc-plated steel, internal parts in hardened steel.
HOW WE USE THEM
With the block,
a single responsibility.
We do not only sell the valve; we also produce the block it runs in.
Product selection to suit the circuitWe identify the right Fluid-Press product for the flow, working pressure and control type.
Cavity machined to the standardWe design and machine the block to the cavity standard of the selected product.
Assembly and testingWe fit the valves, check the tightening torques and apply a pressure test up to 350 bar, as the project requires.

The right valve for the right block; we solve it independently of the brand.
