Product Overview
The Eaton Vickers DG4V 5 22AJ M U H6 20 is a high-performance, solenoid-operated directional control valve from the renowned Vickers DG4V series. Engineered for precise flow direction control in demanding industrial hydraulic systems, this valve utilizes a robust wet-armature solenoid design to shift a precision-machined spool within a high-grade cast iron body. The DG4V 5 22AJ M U H6 20 is a 4-way, 3-position valve configured with a “22” spool type (closed center) and is actuated by a single AC or DC solenoid with a spring return mechanism. It serves as a critical control component, directing pressurized fluid to actuators, motors, or cylinders to manage motion, direction, and holding functions with exceptional repeatability and low-pressure drop.
