Product Detail
Function
Directional valves, type WMR/U10.. are mechanical directional spool valves with roller/plunger. There are 2 position 3 way, 2 position 4 way and 3 position 4 way valves with many versions of spool symbols, and the roller/plunger can be rotated by 90°.
The valves consist basically of the housing (1), roller/plunger (2), spool (3), return springs (4), and pushing rod (5). In the unoperated condition, the spool (3) is held in the initial position by the return spring, while in operated condition, the spool (3) is pushed to the expected position by roller/plunger (2) conquering the return springs (4).
Cartridge throttle
The use of a throttle insert is required, when, due to given operating conditions, flows can occur during the switching processes that exceed the performance limit of the valve.
These throttles are to be inserted into the P-channel of the directional valve.

Operating limitation
Because of the adhesive effect, the switching function of the valves depends on the filtration. In order to achieve the specified admissible flow values, we recommend full flow filtration with 25 µm. The flow forces acting within the valves also affect the flow performance. With 4 way valves the specified flow data thus apply to normal operation with 2 volume flow directions (e.g. from P to A and at the same time return flow from B to T) (see table).
If only one flow direction is available, in critical cases, the admissible flow can be significantly smaller (e.g. when using a 4 way valve as 3 way valve, due to blocked connection A or B).
