Product Questions & Answers

What kind of machinery does this valve usually go in? I'm thinkin' about usin' it on a new hydraulic press we're buildin'.
Question by: Travis S on Nov 6, 2025, 9:20 PM
Real-world applications for this Vickers valve include presses, die casting and foundry equipment, machine tools, primary metal and paper processing machinery, marine and offshore installations, test and simulation equipment, and turbine control systems.

flow rate on this thing goes up to 700 LPM, that enough for press and die casting work or is it typically used for lighter duty stuff?
Question by: Roy M on Apr 9, 2025, 11:27 AM
For press and die casting applications, 700 litres per minute is a solid ceiling. Those environments often demand high-flow directional control, and the DG5V-8 series was built with exactly that kind of work in mind. Die casting and foundry equipment are listed right alongside presses as intended applications, so you're not pushing this valve outside its intended use. The pilot-operated design also helps it handle those higher flow demands more reliably than a direct-acting valve would at that scale.
