Pilot Operated Directional Valve DG3V-7-30 Design Solenoid Controlled Pilot Operated Directional Valve DG5V-7-50 Design General description DG*V-7 valves are used primarily for controlling the starting, stopping and direction of fluid flow. Two series of valves, DG5V solenoid controlled, pilot operated and DG3V pilot operated models are available with a wide selection of spools. These include meter-in and meterout spools and a regeneration type that can obviate extra valves essential in traditional circuit arrangements. All spools have been designed to provide good low shock, fast response characteristics...

Functional Symbols Spool Types Shown in 3-position form, plus 2 transients. 1. In the detailed and simplified symbols on this and the previous pages, the transient positions are omitted for simplicity. 2. In certain 2-position valves, the “o” position becomes an additional transient, i.e. in DG5V-7-*A(L) and DG5V-7-*N valves. Your Eaton representative can provide further details. Spring Offset, End-to-End, Y2 Opposite Hand, DG3V-7-*AL The following are shown in a DG3V-7-*C example: 1. Pilot choke module 2.
