Product Overview
The Rexroth LC 50 DB20D70 (Material Number R900938038) is a two-stage logic cartridge valve engineered for high-flow, high-pressure hydraulic control in demanding industrial systems. As part of the Rexroth LC series, this cartridge-style directional element functions as a pilot-operated, normally closed (type D) logic valve with a 50 mm nominal cartridge size and a 70 bar cracking pressure setting. The valve operates on a two-stage working principle: a pilot stage (typically a directional spool valve) controls the pressure on the main poppet’s control chamber, while the main stage opens or closes the primary flow path between ports A and B. This design allows the LC 50 DB20D70 to deliver exceptionally high flow capacity with minimal pressure drop, making it an ideal building block for compact manifold-based hydraulic circuits, directional control blocks, and pressure-holding functions in modern industrial machinery.
