BACK-UP CRITICAL HYDRAULIC SYSTEMS WITH LEE SHUTTLE VALVES

Lee shuttle valves are available in various sizes and configurations to meet the needs of any application. Because shuttle valves may operate during emergencies, they must remain reliable throughout the life of the product. Therefore, Lee shuttle valves are designed to last for the entire product life cycle.

Each part is also designed to be compact, lightweight, and simple to install. Choose from spring-biased shuttle valves, detented shuttle valves, selective shuttle valves, inverse shuttle valves, or zero leak shuttle valves – you’re almost sure to find a configuration that works for you.

• Spring-biased shuttle valves are typically used to select between the main hydraulic system and the emergency backup that’s biased in the normally closed port.
• Detented shuttle valves are typically used in applications where bidirectional flow may be required between the inlet or outlet ports.
• Selective shuttle valves are our standard non-biased loose-ball design. It is the most economical configuration.
• Inverse shuttle valves may be used to replace two check valves in providing an anti-cavitation and anti-pressure intensification function in hydrostatic actuation systems.
• Zero leak versions of the detented and spring-biased shuttle valves are available with polymeric valve seats to eliminate leakage.
