Technical Information
VO40
General Description
The VO40 is an open-center directional control valve
with the flexibility of sectional construction. Consis-
tent with this technology, it is simple in its application,
reliable, easy to troubleshoot, and cost effective. The
global design reflects the performance and quality ex-
pected by today’s machine designers. Spools have me-
tering notches in the three critical areas – open- center,
parallel path and tank, which optimizes simultaneous
metering. Contemporary honing technology is used to
deliver low work port to tank leakage. Additionally, each
work section has a transition check to ensure that a
load does not “dip” during simultaneous operation. All
of these features, plus those listed below, were intend-
ed to take machine controllability to the next level.
Operation
The VO40 incorporates traditional open-center technol-
ogy. It is usually interfaced with a constant flow pump,
whose flow is routed directly to tank when the spools
are in neutral. When one or more spools are selected,
flow is directed to the actuators. The throttling of that
flow depends upon the spool position and the design of
the metering notches. Spool notches can be designed
to accommodate resistive loads (meter-in) and nega-
tive loads (meter-out). To accommodate multiple pump
circuits, split flow and combined flow mid inlets are
available.
Benefits
Enhanced metering – especially during simultaneous
•
operation, this is accomplished by having notches in the
three critical areas of the spool: open center, parallel path
and tank.
Improved simultaneous metering – having a transition
check in each work section ensures that a load does not
“dip” downward when metering two or more work-sections.
•
Repeatability – consistent metering from valve to valve
•
is achieved by flycutting all of the critical cast lands. This
means that the notch position relative to the spool stroke
is controlled and predictable. The result is consistent
machine control.
Reduced operator fatigue – the open-center core is
•
a split wing or “Y” core design, which provides for a
consistent lever force when selecting the spool from
neutral to both power positions.
Reduced function drift – low internal leakage
•
accomplished thru the use of contemporary honing
technology. Also, for those functions requiring near zero
drift, pilot-operated checks are available.
Small footprint – port accessories are installed vertical
to the spool, allowing the handle to be positioned closer to
the valve body.
•
Ease of service – the bottom two stud assemblies are
•
slotted, enabling a work section to be replaced without
completely disassembling the valve assembly. This is
accomplished by loosening the top tie bolt and then lifting
the section out of the assembly. Downtime is minimized.
Easy conversion from a left-handed to a right-handed
•
section – the work section housing and spool are
symmetrical, which enables the spool to be inserted in
either end of the housing.
Improved spool seal life – the enclosed handle assembly
protects the spool and spool seal area from contamination
and the potential corrosion.

Hydraulic Fluids
Environmental Characteristics
Best performance is obtained using mineral-base oil of
high quality and cleanliness in the hydraulic system.
The valve can be mounted in all conceivable directions.
However, the mounting base should be flat and stable so
that the valve is not subjected to strain.
Hydraulic fluids of type HLP (DIN 51524), oil for automatic
gearboxes Type A and engine oil type API CD can be
used.
While the o-rings in the valve are normally of nitrile rub-
ber, there are a number of special fluorocarbon variants.
Please contact Parker for further information.
Viscosity, working range: 15-380 mm2/s (15-380 cST)**
Temperature
Technical information in this catalog is applicable at
an oil viscosity of 30 mm2/s (30 cST) and temperature
of 50 °C (122 °F) using nitrile rubber seals.
Oil temperature, working range:
+20°C to 90 °C (68 to 194 °F)*
* Product operating limits are broadly within the above range, but
satisfactory operation within the specification may not be accom-
plished. Leakage and response will be affected when used at tem-
perature extremes and it is up to the user to determine acceptability
at these levels.
Filtration
Filtration must be arranged so that Target Contamination
Class 20/18/14 according to ISO 4406 is not exceeded.
For the pilot circuit, Target Contamination Class 18/16/13
according to ISO 4406 must not be exceeded.
** Performance efficiency will be reduced if outside the ideal values.
These extreme conditions must be evaluated by the user to establish
suitability of the product’s performance.

Circuit Types – Parallel Circuit
In the open-center parallel circuit, oil flows through the open-center passage when all of the spools are in neutral.
When spools are shifted, oil is diverted into the parallel path and available to each of the selected work-sections.
Simultaneous operation can be achieved, when two or more spools are selected. However, since oil will take the
path of least resistance the operator must meter the flow to each function to get a desired function speed.

Circuit Types – Tandem Circuit (Priority)
In the open-center tandem circuit, oil flows through the open-center passage when all of the spools are in neutral.
Tandem work-sections are fed from the open center and the parallel path is blocked. A tandem work-section will

Open-Center Directional Control Valve
Catalog HY17-8505/UK
Ordering Information – Work Sections
VO40
The VO40 valve can be supplied in combinations from one to ten work sections. For each work section there is
a variety of spool options, actuators, positioners and port accessories. Work sections can have parallel, series,
and/or tandem circuitry. All types can be combined in the same valve assembly.
All work sections with hold in neutral spools have transition checks (load checks). All work sections with free flow
in neutral spools (motor) do not include transition checks (load checks). Contact Parker if you require a deviation
from this configuration.
Work sections are available with or without work port option machining. Integrated pilot-operated checks (Lock-
Out) are available in a specially machined casting (ordering code on page 20 [76 A/B]). A spacer section which
provides for more spacing between sections is also available (ordering code on page 20 [90]).
Examples of work port machining options:
Section without RV Cavities
Section with RV Cavities
Section with PO Checks
The VO40 Pilot-Operated Check (Lock-Out) sections
provide near zero leakage and can prevent cylinder
drift when the spool is in the neutral position. When
the spool is shifted to a power position, oil is directed
to one work port. Return oil is momentarily blocked
until pilot pressure unseats the check (3.1:1 ratio). With
207 bar (3000 PSI) load, it will require 67 bar (968 PSI)
into the opposite work port to unlock.
The spool is a 4-way, 3-position free flow spool which
prevents system pressure leakage from building up
and unlocking the PO checks.
The coding to specify a work section is made by 11 fields, as shown below:

pneumatic actuator is assembled onto one side
of the work section and the opposite end is open
and available for the addition of a handle. A min.
of 5.5 bar (80 PSI) is required. The threaded
ports are both 1/8" NPT.
