From help with Servo and Proportional Control Valves, to resources and changes that allow you to serve your customers better, we are here for distributors at HPS.
But before we share those resources, let’s begin with a little education on Servo valves and proportional control valves.
A hydraulic Servo valve is equipped with an internal mechanical feedback device, whereas proportional valves utilize electrical feedback.
A Servo pressure control valve is commonly used to control pressure in a circuit. The feedback signal from the sensor is analyzed by the servo amp which controls the valve.
A proportional control valve, also known as a variable displacement valve or PCV, can be used to provide variable hydraulic outputs proportional to an electric input signal in direction, flow, or pressure.
Technical expertise is critical when repairs are needed for Servo and proportional valves, and it may be difficult to find qualified help.
Don’t worry. We’re here with resources including this downloadable Tech Talk with HPS on PCVs.

The first step we advise is to fill out a repair request form. Our expert technicians will get in touch with you shortly to diagnose and resolve the problem efficiently.
HPS offers repair assistance on proportional valves, providing a one-stop shop for repairing the SYDFEE series using the A10VSO DFEE proportional controls.
If more or different help is needed, we offer advice on how to choose adequate Servo and proportional valve repair facilities.
For all their complexities that lead to end-users seeking professional repair help, the proportional control valve is one of the most useful and powerful tools for a hydraulic company’s production line.
That’s why HPS went full-bore in expanding our Servo / Proportional Repair division to serve more of your customers.
Our offerings include:
We don’t charge inspection fees for new customer repair requests made in 2024, for example.
We also offer free inbound freight and have servo-prop valve expert available on request. Simply email Robert Cacciapalle at repairs@hydparts.com.
Also Handy for new customers is our full parts source line card (2024) download.
