Rexroth 4WE10M5X/HG24N9K4/M Directional Valve - Key Parameters

Rexroth 4WE10M5X/HG24N9K4/M Valve - FAQ

Q1: What is the center position function of the M5X spool?

A:​ In the neutral (center) position, the M5X spool connects the pressure port (P) to the tank (T) and also connects P to both actuator ports (A and B) simultaneously.

Q2: What is this center position used for?

A:​ This configuration unloads the pump to tank (saving energy) while also applying system pressure to both sides of a double-acting actuator. It is used in specialized circuits, such as those requiring a hydraulic cylinder to be held under equal pressure from both sides in a "standby" or "pre-charged" state.

Q3: How is the valve controlled?

A:​ It is operated by a 24V DC solenoid. When energized, the solenoid shifts the spool. When de-energized, a spring returns it to the M5X center position. A manual override is provided.

Q4: What are the main operating limits?

A:​ Maximum pressure: 315 bar. Maximum flow: 60 l/min. It mounts on an ISO 4401-05 (CETOP 5) subplate.

Q5: Where can I find complete details?

A:​ For the full datasheet, performance curves, and official hydraulic symbol, refer to the technical documentation for order code R901401553.
