VICKERS KDG3V 3 2C23A S 60

Description & Features

Designed for precision flow control across demanding industrial environments, the Vickers KDG3V 3 2C23A S 60 is a direct-acting proportional valve rated at 23 litres per minute. Featuring fluorocarbon seals, it is built to handle the thermal and chemical demands common in press, die casting, foundry, and primary metal applications.

Available in three performance levels, ultra, high, and standard, the valve suits a broad range of application requirements without over-engineering the solution. Plug-and-play functionality reduces commissioning time, making it a practical choice for machine tool, marine/offshore, turbine control, and test and simulation systems. The Vickers brand, now under the Danfoss/Eaton portfolio, brings established reliability to proportional valve technology across these sectors.

Product Questions & Answers (2)

Question by: Rick M on Mar 2, 2026, 1:00 PM
flow rate on this one is listed at 23 litres per minute -- is that enough for press or die casting work, or is it more suited to lighter duty setups?
Answer by: Customer Support on Mar 3, 2026, 6:18 PM
For press and die casting applications, 23 litres per minute puts this valve in solid territory for a wide range of machine configurations. It's a direct-acting proportional valve, so it handles flow control with good responsiveness, and both press and die casting are explicitly listed as supported applications. Whether it fits your specific system comes down to your circuit design and demand requirements, but it's not a light-duty-only unit by any stretch.
Question by: Debbie C on Sep 26, 2025, 9:39 PM
If I'm usin' this in a press application, how much flow can it handle?
Answer by: Customer Support on Sep 28, 2025, 6:20 AM
This Vickers proportional valve can handle up to 23 liters per minute, which should suit most press applications.
