Remote Pilot Operated Directional Valve DG3V-8 10 Design Solenoid Controlled Pilot Operated Directional Valve DG5V-8 10 Design General description The Size 8 Directional Control Valve serves as a control valve package. It offers directional control, pilot pressure reducers, pilot chokes, and main stage stroke adjustment to control the flow. Each valve contains a mainstage spool which is positioned in the valve by special arrangement. The four arrangements are: • The valves are generally used to control large flows up to 700 l/min (185 USgpm) at 350 bar (5000 psi) and provide low pressure drops....

Application Notes General Description DG5V-8 models are twostage directional control valves having an integrally mounted wet armature solenoid pilot valve. These valves are generally used to control the movement of a work cylinder or the rotation of a fluid motor. Pressure Centered Models Designated by ‘‘D’’ under spring/spool arrangement in model code. connection ‘‘Y’’ becomes a drain connection and must be pioped directly to tank at atmospheric pressure through a surge-free tank line. Back pressure at this connection would cause valve to malfunction. Caution: Spring offset models contain a...
