Miniature Shuttle Valves

AUSCO Miniature Shuttle Valves offer a cost effective, compact, light weight solution for fluid control systems. Spring Biased and Detented Shuttle Valves offered in a range of sizes and multiple configuration options to meet both manifold installation and line mount requirements.

Construction:

• Compact Insert or Cartridge Designs Fit into Head of Actuators
• Non Interflow Designs - All three ports never open simultaneously
• Zero Leak, or Low Leakage Hard Seat Designs
• Self Locking Insert, Manifold LRU and Line Mount Designs
• Integral screens on smaller designs as standard (optional on others)

Spring Biased Shuttle Valve designs allow for pressure-dependent flow from normally nose port (E) to center port C, once shuttling pressure is reached

• Ideal for providing "make-up" flow from rod end to head end of an unbalanced actuator
• Priority Selection Operation of actuator(s), such as braking systems

Detented Shuttle Valve designs latch into one of two positions, allowing flow from either nose/emergency (E) port (B) to center/cylinder port (C), or normal supply (A) to center port (C) - see diagram

• Ideal for emergency gas operation of hydraulic system function. Zero leak designs prevent gas from bleeding into hydraulic system
• Braking systems
