flow rate on this valve, is 120 liters per minute the max it'll handle, or is that more of a rated operating figure?

120 litres per minute is the stated flow rate for this valve. That's the figure it's rated to, so you'd want to stay at or below that in your system to keep things running right. Pushing past a rated flow on a directional control valve tends to cause pressure drop issues and accelerated wear on the seals, so treat that number as your ceiling.

I’ve got a machine tool setup, is this DGMX2-5 30 Design SystemStak valve the kind of thing that fits that sort of work?
Question by: Travis W on Mar 2, 2026, 5:22 PM
For machine tool and multiple industrial applications, this valve is a match for that general type of hydraulic system. It is part of Eaton Vickers IV directional control valves in the DGMX2-5 30 Design SystemStak family.
