Interview with Zhangqian Tong, Director of Sales Applications at Le-HydrauliX

The CPA valve offers a number of advantages for use in confined installation spaces, including a slimline width of just 26 mm and a connector angled by 60 degrees, which reduces the space required for the wire harness. Zhangqian Tong, Director of Sales Applications at Le-HydrauliX, explains in an interview with Juhua Xu, Application Manager Automotive & Mobile Hydraulics at Thomas Acutation Technology (Shanghai) Co., Ltd.why his company opted for Thomas and the CPA:

In which areas does Le-HydrauliX use the CPA and why did you decide in favor of the CPA produced by Thomas?

Juhua Xu,
Thomas Group (Shanghai)
We use the CPA primarily for the pilot control of our key products. We chose Thomas because the products are very cost-effective compared to similar competing components, including some of the domestic (editor’s note: Chinese) brands. Thomas offers competitive prices with assured product performance and consistently good quality.

Each of our products is only delivered to the customer once it has passed testing.

All the feedback we have received from our customers regarding the control quality has been positive.
