Abstract: A control piston (12) is longitudinally displaceable in a housing (10) having two connection points (P, A) for fluid, and cooperates with a metering edge (34) of the housing (10) at a connection point (P). Point (P), in control positions of the control piston (12), supplies the connection point (A) with fluid via a fluid connection. The piston, as a result of occurring flow forces, tends to be drawn in the direction of a closing position that blocks one of these fluid connections.

The contact surface transfers a compensating force that acts against the flow force to the control piston (12) and that seeks to pull the control piston (12) into an opening position opposed to the closing position.
