Abstract: A low profile solenoid cartridge valve with replaceable spool preferably includes a valve body, a valve spool, a spool return spring, a solenoid coil, a solenoid plunger and plunger return spring. The valve body includes a spool body, a solenoid body and a threaded manifold end. A spool inner diameter is sized to receive the valve spool. The valve spool includes a chamfered neck. A plunger bore is formed through the solenoid body to receive the solenoid plunger. The solenoid coil includes a coil body and an electrical connector. A solenoid counter bore is formed in the solenoid body to receive the coil body. A chamfered slot is formed on one end of the solenoid plunger. The chamfered slot engages the chamfered neck of the valve spool and forces the valve spool upward to open a flow path in a valve manifold.

Abstract: A valve stack for a work machine is disclosed. The valve stack has first and second valve bodies, each with first and second mounting surfaces and first and second valve members. The valve stack further has a third valve body with a mounting surface configured to engage the second mounting surfaces of the first and second valve bodies, and at least one valve member disposed within the third valve body. The at least one valve member is movable between a first position at which movement of a first operator control device corresponds to movement of the first valve member and movement of a second operator control device corresponds to movement of the second valve member, and a second position at which movement of the first operator control device corresponds to movement of the second valve member and movement of the second operator control device corresponds to movement of the first valve member.
