Model Designation Significance:
The “DG4V” series is a well - known range of hydraulic valves from Vickers. These valves are designed to provide precise control over hydraulic fluid flow direction in a wide variety of hydraulic systems.
For DG4V - 5 - 2N - M - U - C6 - 20
Port Configuration:
The “5” in the model number indicates the number of ports. A 5 - port valve typically allows for more complex flow control arrangements such as in systems where multiple actuators need to be controlled or where there are different supply and return paths.
Spool Type and Function:
The “2N” represents the spool configuration. The spool is a crucial part of the valve that controls the flow paths between the ports. The specific spool type determines how the valve will direct the hydraulic fluid, for example, whether it will allow for straight - through flow, cross - over flow, or some other custom flow pattern depending on the position of the spool
