Because the new cartridge-type solenoid does not need to be concealed within a housing, the overall assembly takes up considerably less space, the solenoid connector can be easily rotated nearly 180 degrees to provide the best clearance and accessibility
Performance: the new cartridge valve assembly has an improved flow rate allowing the P.T.O. clutch pack to reach full operating pressure and torque capacity sooner
Reliability: the new cartridge valve has been fatigue tested in excess of 12 million cycles and meets or exceeds the current valve life cycles
Reduced complexity: the new cartridge valve assembly has only one electrical connection as opposed to two on the current assembly; a simple O-ring seal on the cartridge valve replaces a molded seal between the current die-cast housing and composite cap
