How much hydraulic flow can this handle? Just want to make sure it'll work with my setup.

This Vickers directional control valve is rated for flows up to 265 liters per minute, or 70 US gallons per minute. It should provide ample capacity for most systems within that range.

Got a harvester that needs a directional control valve and space is real tight under the hood, this PTS12-10N-0-80-00 rated to handle that kind of setup?

Compact builds are exactly where this valve fits well. It's part of the Vickers PTS12-10 series, which was put together with space-constrained mobile equipment in mind. Harvesters are actually listed as one of the primary applications, so you're not stretching its intended use at all. It holds up to 350 bar (5,000 psi) and can move up to 265 L/min (70 USgpm) at the system level, with a rated flow of 30 litres per minute for this specific configuration. The spool-style construction keeps actuation consistent even when loads are shifting around, which matters on harvest equipment where conditions change fast.
