DG5S82CTKMX1ER430

The DG5S82CTKMX1ER430 valve is part of the DG5 Two-Stage Directional Valves series manufactured by Vickers for hydraulic automation tasks that require precise flow control. It is a two-stage unit, so a pilot section shifts the main spool for smoother movement under load. Actuation is solenoid operated, meaning an electrical signal drives the shift without external pilot pressure. The coil is rated at 120 V AC 60 Hz, letting it connect directly to conventional industrial power. A flame-resistant solenoid housing limits ignition risk in oil-rich environments. The build is spring centered, and the centering force comes from a spring arrangement designated C, ensuring automatic return to neutral when power is removed. Gray iron is used for the body material to provide high strength with good machinability for porting and mounting surfaces.

A check valve that opens at 5 psi prevents reverse flow into the pilot line and maintains stable spool positioning during pressure fluctuations. The tank port rating of 70 bar allows the return flow to withstand elevated back-pressure without damaging the housing. Required fluid cleanliness is 19/17/14 micron, so system filtration must keep particulate counts below this threshold to protect internal lands. The valve is supplied without a manual override, so shifting relies solely on the electrical signal and avoids accidental mechanical actuation. Because the unit is spring centered, it suits circuits that need reliable neutral positioning during standby and completes its function as a directional element in automated hydraulic systems.
