Norgren 03043822 Packed Spool Lever Valve 0.34 Cv

Product Description

The NORGREN 03043822 is a manually operated directional control valve with a packed spool design and lever actuation. It carries a Cv rating of 0.34, making it suited for low-flow pneumatic or hydraulic circuit control. The valve uses spring activation to return the spool to its default position when the lever is released. The compact, black-bodied construction is designed for installation in industrial and commercial fluid power systems where manual directional control is required. This valve is typically installed by pipefitters, industrial maintenance technicians, or fluid power specialists familiar with directional control components.

The 03043822 is appropriate for use in pneumatic control panels, machine tool circuits, and other applications requiring a manually shifted, spring-return directional valve. Its packed spool design helps maintain a reliable seal under repeated actuation cycles. Typical installation scenarios include inline mounting in compressed air or compatible fluid circuits where the operator needs direct, tactile control over flow direction without requiring an electrical signal or solenoid.

Key Features

• Packed spool valve design for reliable sealing across actuation cycles
• Lever actuated with spring return for consistent default positioning
• Cv rating of 0.34 for controlled low-flow applications
• Black body finish for identification and corrosion resistance in industrial environments
• Compact form factor suited for panel or inline mounting

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-install directional control valve for pneumatic and compatible fluid power systems requiring a packed spool, lever-actuated, spring-return valve with a 0.34 Cv rating.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified pipefitter or fluid power technician. Depressurize and lock out the circuit before removing any existing valve or making connections. Verify that port sizing, thread type, and pressure ratings of the system match the valve specifications before installation. Consult applicable industry codes and the system schematic to confirm correct flow direction and port orientation prior to returning the circuit to service.
