OPEN - CONTROL POSITION - The normally closed solenoid is closed. The normally open solenoid is closed.
Y-Port (P3) to Z-port (P2) is closed. X-port (P1) to Y-port (P3) is closed. The product cannot flow to or from
the top of the piston. The piston is hydraulically locked in position until the electronic preset commands the
OPEN POSITION - (no control) - The normally closed solenoid is open. The normally open solenoid is closed.
Y-port (P3) is open to Z-port (P2). X-port (P1) is closed off by the normally open solenoid. The pressure on the
bottom of the piston (P1) is greater than the pressure at (P3) plus the spring force; (P1 minus P2) is equal to
or greater than the spring force. Therefore, (P1) pressure pushes the piston open. No flow control is required.
