Vickers KCG 3 40D Z M U HA1

Description & Features

Direct-acting proportional valve designed for demanding industrial applications, the Vickers KCG 3 40D Z M U HA1 delivers precise flow control at up to 5 litres per minute. Available in three performance levels, ultra, high, and standard, it can be matched to a wide range of application requirements without over-specifying. Buna-N seals provide reliable fluid compatibility across typical hydraulic media.

Plug-and-play functionality reduces commissioning time, making this valve well suited to integration in machine tool, press, and test equipment and simulation systems. It also sees use in die casting and foundry environments, marine and offshore installations, primary metal and paper processing, and turbine control applications covering wind, steam, and water systems.

Question by: Steve B on Jul 11, 2025, 3:26 PM
Flow rate on this one says 5 litres per minute, is that gonna be enough for press and machine tool work, or is it more suited to lighter duty stuff?
Answer by: Customer Support on Jul 13, 2025, 6:23 AM
For press and machine tool applications, 5 litres per minute is right in line with what direct-acting proportional valves in this class are built to handle. These aren't high-volume flow valves, they're built for precise, controlled flow rather than bulk volume movement. If your system needs that kind of accurate flow regulation at relatively low rates, this fits the bill. High-volume flow demands would need a different solution, but for the control-oriented work this valve targets, the rating is appropriate.

Will this Vickers valve work alright for controlling flow in a machine tool setup?
Answer by: Customer Support on Aug 1, 2025, 6:07 AM
This KCG 3 40D Z M U HA1 valve is indeed well-suited for machine tool applications, providing precise flow control at up to 5 liters per minute.
