S12 Pro Servo Valve FAQs

The S12 Pro has a flow rate of 66 to 153 gpm (250 to 580 lpm) and response rate of <6.5 ms. Using the S6 Pro as the first stage, the S12 Pro is capable of extremely fast response rates given the flow capabilities.

Hydraulic Servo Valves – S12 Pro

Compact Power. Proven Reliability.

The S12 Pro is a highly dynamic hydraulic servo valve designed for NG16 (CETOP 7) ports. Its performance includes a flow range of 66-153 gpm (250-580 lpm), frequency over 100 Hz, and a response time of <6.5 ms. This model offers the largest flow capability of 153 gpm, and is suited for applications in press and forming, power and energy, and industrial testing. 

Built on a two-stage architecture using Domin’s proven valve technology as a pilot stage, it prioritizes stability, durability, and consistent performance under heavy load.

The S12 Pro delivers stable, responsive control across the operating range, maintaining integrity even in the most demanding conditions, ideal for systems where instability cannot be tolerated.

With dimensions of 13.25 in (377 mm) in length and 6.9 in (177 mm) in height, the S12 Pro is thoughtfully designed with all components fully enclosed, eliminating exposed wires or sensors. This user-focused design element ensures not only a clean, sleek appearance, but also easier handling and installation.

This combination of performance and compact design makes the S12 Pro ideal for applications in industrial manufacturing, test simulation, and the energy sector.

If you are looking for faster response times with lower flow capabilities, view our most popular model, the S6 Pro, which offers response times less than 3.5ms and a flow range of 1.6 to 15.9 gpm (6 to 60 lpm). If you don’t require the dynamic high performance of an S Series servo valve, view our cost-effective P12 Pro.
