Flow rate on this valve is listed at 120 liters per minute. That enough to handle press applications without starving the circuit?
Question by: Keith F on Jul 23, 2025, 9:16 PM
For press work, 120 liters per minute gives you solid throughput at this valve size. The DG4V-5 series is specifically called out for press applications, so the flow capacity lines up well with that kind of duty. Just make sure your upstream pump and line sizing aren't the limiting factor, because the valve itself won't be your bottleneck in most press setups.
