Designed for three- or four-way directional control in demanding industrial hydraulic circuits, the Vickers DG4V 3 7C M U C6 60 is a single-stage directional control valve rated for flow up to 80 litres per minute. Buna-N seals provide reliable fluid compatibility across a broad range of hydraulic media, and the valve mounts easily on industry-standard subplate surfaces, simplifying integration into existing systems.
This valve is suited to a wide range of industrial environments, including machine tool, press, primary metal, die casting and foundry, marine and offshore, turbine control, and test equipment and simulation applications. Produced under the Eaton Vickers brand, the DG4V-3 series covers a broad model range, making it a practical choice where application-specific configuration is required.

trying to swap out an older directional valve, is this one a single-stage DG4V-3 in the 60 design?
Answer by: Customer Support on Jan 12, 2026, 9:32 PM
Vickers DG4V-3 60 design directional control valves are single-stage units, and this part is identified as a DG4V-3 60 design model.
Question by: Dwight P on Feb 22, 2026, 12:58 PM
flow rate on this valve is listed at 80 lpm -- is that enough for press applications or is it on the lower end for that kind of work?
Answer by: Customer Support on Feb 23, 2026, 4:47 PM
For press applications, 80 litres per minute sits in a practical range that covers a good number of single-stage press circuits. The DG4V-3 series is explicitly listed for press use, so the flow capacity aligns with what those systems typically demand at this valve stage. Whether it fits your specific press depends on your circuit's volume requirements, but 80 lpm is not a limiting figure for most standard press setups this valve class is built for.
