Product Overview
The Eaton Vickers DG4V-3C-6C-M-U-G5-13 (Part Number 6040768-001) is a high-performance, solenoid-operated directional control valve from the globally recognized Vickers DG4V series. Engineered for precise control of hydraulic fluid flow direction, this 3-position, 4-way valve features a closed-center spool configuration (designated by “C” in the model code) and is actuated by a single AC or DC solenoid with spring return. The “M” designation indicates a manual override feature, while “U” specifies a UL-recognized coil. The “G5″ identifies a 5/8” (16 mm) nominal flow path, and “13” denotes the specific spool type and design variant. This valve is a direct-acting, wet-armature design that provides fast response, low pressure drop, and reliable shifting in demanding industrial hydraulic circuits. It serves as a critical control component in systems requiring precise directional control of actuators, motors, and cylinders, ensuring efficient power transmission and safe operation.
