Expert Solution
Step 1

A valve is a mechanism or natural thing that opens, closes, or partially obstructs numerous passages to regulate, direct, or control the flow of a fluid (gases, liquids, fluidized solids, or slurries).

One of the most important components of hydraulic and pneumatic systems is directional control valves (DCVs). DCVs allow fluid flow (hydraulic oil, water, or air) from one or more sources into multiple pathways. A spool within a cylinder that is mechanically or electrically activated is typical of DCVs. The spool's location regulates the fluid flow by restricting or allowing it to flow.
