Moog Servovalves
The 771/2/3 Series flow control servovalves are throttle valves for 3- and preferably 4-way applications.They are a high performance, two-stage design that covers the range of rated flows from 1 to 15 gpm at 1000 psi valve drop.The output stage is a closed center, four-way sliding spool.The pilot stage is a symmetrical doublenozzle and flapper, driven by a double air gap, dry torque motor. Mechanical feedback of spool position is provided by
a cantilever spring.The valve design is simple and rugged for dependable, long life operation. These valves are suitable for electrohydraulic position, speed, pressure or force control systems with high dynamic response requirements. Principle of operation An electrical command signal (flow rate set point) is applied to the torque motor coils, and creates a magnetic force which acts on the ends of the pilot stage armature.This causes a
deflection of the armature/flapper assembly within the flexure tube. Deflection of the flapper restricts fluid flow through one nozzle which is carried through to one spool end, displacing the spool. Movement of the spool opens the supply pressure port (P) to one control port, while simultaneously opening the tank port (T) to the other control port.The spool motion also applies a force to the cantilever spring, creating a restoring torque on the armature/flapper assembly.
Once the restoring torque becomes equal to the torque from the magnetic forces, the armature/flapper assembly moves back to the neutral position and the spool is held open in a state of equilibrium until the command signal changes to a new level. In summary, the spool position is proportional to the input current and with constant pressure drop across the valve, flow to the load is proportional to the spool position.

The actual flow is dependent upon electrical command signal and valve pressure drop.The flow for a given valve pressure drop can be calculated using the square root function for sharp edge orifices:
Q = QN
p pN
Q [gpm] = calculated flow QN [gpm] = rated flow p [psi] = actual valve pressure drop pN [psi] = rated valve pressure drop
This catalog is for users with technical knowledge.To ensure that all necessary characteristics for function and safety of the
system are given, the user has to check the suitability of the products described here. In case of doubt, please contact Moog Inc.
Intrinsically safe valve versions are available for use in hazardous locations. Specific models are certified to FM,ATEX, CSA, and TIIS standards. Contact the factory for details.

The mounting manifold must conform to ISO 10372-03-03-0-92. Surface to which valve is mounted requires a 32 [] finish, flat within 0.002[0.05] TIR. For External Null Adjust: Flow out of Port B will increase with clockwise rotation of null adjust screw (3/32 hex key). For External Null Adjust: Flow bias is continually varied for a given port as the null adjust is rotated.

Rated current and coil resistance A variety of coils are available for 771/2/3 Series Servovalves, which offer a wide choice of rated current. See Table 1.
Coil connections A four-pin electrical connector (that mates with an MS3106F14S-2S) is standard. All four torque motor leads are available at the connector so external connections can be made for series, parallel or differential operation. 771/2/3 Series Servovalves can be supplied on special order with other connectors or a pigtail.
Servoamplifier The servovalve responds to input current, therefore, a servoamplifier that has high internal impedance (as obtained with current feedback) should be used. This will reduce the effects of coil inductance and will minimize changes due to coil resistance variations.
