MOOG G761 Series Servo Valve

Advantages of the MOOG G761 Series Servo Valve

  1. Exceptional Longevity

    • Uses a carbide ball-in-hole feedback design brazed to the feedback wire. This dramatically reduces wear compared to traditional steel-ball or ball-in-slot designs.

    • Moog claims life expectancy above one billion cycles.

  2. High Precision & High Resolution

    • Two-stage design (nozzle-flapper pilot + sliding spool) gives fine control, low hysteresis, and accurate flow response.

    • Mechanical feedback keeps spool position tightly regulated.

  3. Fast Dynamic Response

    • Very quick step response times (<4–16 ms depending on version) make it suitable for high-frequency control.

    • Robust Construction

    • Rugged body options (aluminum or steel) support high pressures (up to ~350 bar).

    • Built-in disc filter helps protect the pilot stage.

  4. Flexible Installation & Operation

    • ISO 10372 mounting pattern (Size 04) ensures compatibility with common manifolds.

    • Can be mounted in any orientation.

  5. Wide Flow Range

    • Available in many rated flow options (from very low to high), which makes it versatile for different applications.
