Looking for a electric selector valve

[Cord]

Looking for a electric selector valve that can take two supply lines and the split each into 3 circuits. Instead of the standard 6 ports, I need 8 ports. Anybody know of a source for such a valve?

Stack them together.

I have 3 stacked on one of my tractors.

If this link works it is for an 8 way 2-position valve. Only rated for 2.6 GPM though.

Otherwise stack 2-position 6-ways together like Brian said.

Are you trying to run more things but not at the same time. Your two supply line comment is what I am not understanding.

Often people with a FEL want to add a hydraulic grapple and many joystick FEL levers have a button for an electric switch. In my neighborhood, people put a selector valve in the circuit for the bucket dump lines and thus freeze the bucket position and have control over the grapple cylinders.

I need to take the flow from two parallel circuits and split each into any of three potential circuits. Only one of the three circuits would be run at any time. The correct solenoid valve would have two inlet fittings and six outlet fittings and two solenoids. It would be a two circuit, three position valve. I guess this could be accomplished with two valves in series, but it'll add a bunch of hoses that I'm hoping to avoid. Flow needs to be at least 24gpm. A

Picture a use similar to the loader grapple, but you also need to power a third function.

Not what I was wanting, but it might work. Where'd you get the valves?

This would seem to do what you are requesting, stack two together;

Yea, that's not enough flow. Found this one on Ebay, but it's coming out of Finland. hydraulic 6 port solenoid diverter/ selector valve 1/2" BSP 12VDC 24gpm | eBay Was hoping to get it in less than 3 weeks. Sure looks like this one: http://www.parker.com/portal/site/P...N&vgnextcatid=695127&vgnextcat=SELECTOR+VALVE

My valves are to small for your use, but there are 24 GPM units available. Have to get 2 kits and put them together. Would be in the $800 range.

Without knowing what and how these will be used and based only on the GPM requirements, 1/2" ports are not really big enough to flow 24GPM for any length of time without heating up the oil.

 

[Cord]

Yea, I'm not concerned about heating the oil. The pump puts out 30gpm, but at full throttle and this will only be used at a high idle. 24 should be sufficient.

Yea, that's why I was hoping to find a single valve.

What's the end game? What are you building?

Would it not work to use simple section spool valves? And stack as many work sections as you need.

Even a monobock....I think you can get them cheaper. A 3-spool monobock with nothing fancy like float or Regen...25-30gpm.....maybe $350-$400 range

 

[oldnslo]

I don't know of any company that makes bankable diverter valves in the 30 GPM range. Is the 30 GPM for each pump or is this a combined flow rate?
