Hydraulic Solenoid Valve
A hydraulic solenoid valve allows the operator to control where the hydraulic oil flows without extra levers or major modifications. A single lever can operate multiple functions such as opening or closing a clamp or sideshifting it, depending on the button pressed.
- Operate multiple attachment functions
- More cost effective than additional hydraulics
- Quicker installation
- Improved attachment versatility
- Minimal forklift modification
Equipment Description.
A Hydraulic Solenoid Valve allows a forklift to operate multiple attachment functions using the existing hydraulic circuit. By redirecting hydraulic oil when a button is pressed, the valve enables one lever to control more than one movement, making attachments more versatile without adding extra controls.
This solution is commonly used when an attachment requires additional hydraulic functions but installing a full extra hydraulic kit would be unnecessary. For example, the same control lever can operate a clamp or activate a sideshift depending on which button the operator presses. This gives operators quick access to different attachment movements while keeping the cab controls simple.
Fitting a Hydraulic Solenoid Valve is also far more cost effective and quicker than installing an additional hydraulic valve or full 4th function hydraulic kit. Because the system uses the forklift’s existing hydraulic circuit, it avoids the need for extra valves, hoses, and cab modifications. The result is a practical upgrade that expands attachment capability while keeping installation time and costs low.
