Active power steering – APS
Active power steering valve for agriculture and construction equipment, and autonomous vehicles
The APS is an advanced steering valve model developed by Ognibene Power after carrying out meticulous design, research and experimentation. The dual displacement is user-selectable, meaning that a selectable steering ratio is available according to the driver’s needs, with effort always reduced under emergency conditions.
This power steering unit features:
- Selectable double displacement
- Comfort and agility at low vehicle speed
- Stability and accuracy at high vehicle speed
- Full-time-self diagnosed (optional)
Open center Non-reaction (ON)
Open center Reaction (OR)
Load sensing Non-reaction (LS)
Load sensing reaction (LSR)
Close center Non-reaction (CN)
