The Bosch Rexroth 4WMU6G5X (R900495042) is a high-performance directional spool valve designed for precise control over the start, stop, and direction of fluid flow in hydraulic systems. This valve falls under the Type WM series, known for their robust construction and mechanical, manually actuated operation. The 4WMU6G5X model features a roller plunger type of actuation, which allows for smooth and accurate movement of the control spool, thereby ensuring efficient flow management.
Equipped with one or two return springs, the valve ensures that the control spool returns to its central or initial position when not actuated or in its deenergized state. This particular model comes with a detent mechanism which enables each spool position to be securely locked in place when required. This feature is particularly useful in applications where a consistent position must be maintained without constant manual input.
For scenarios where operating conditions might lead to flows that exceed the valve's performance limit during switching processes, this valve can be fitted with a throttle insert within channel P. This addition helps to modulate flow rates effectively and prevent any potential damage or performance issues caused by excessive flow.
The 4WMU6G5X model adheres to international standards with its porting pattern aligning with DIN form A without locating hole and ISO with locating hole. It offers flexibility in terms of configuration as it is available in 3- or 4-way versions. The valve's size and component series X indicate its suitability for various applications, supporting maximum operating pressures up to 315 bar and handling maximum flows up to 60 l/min.
This Bosch Rexroth directional valve is also compatible with inductive position switches and proximity sensors for contactless detection of spool position, enhancing its applicability in automated environments where precise control and feedback are essential.

Type WM.. valves are mechanical, manually actuated directional spool valves. They control the start, stop and direction of a flow. Directional valves basically consist of housing (1), one type of actuation (2) (roller plunger), control spool (3) and one or two return springs (4). In de-energized state, the return springs (4) maintain the control spool (3) in central or starting position - if the rotary knob is actuated with a detent. The control spool (3) is moved to the desired spool position by means of the type of actuation (2).
Detent
Directional valves with rotary knob are generally designed with detent. Directional valves with hand lever are optionally available as 2 or 3 position valves with detent. Directional valves with roller plunger are generally designed without detent. If types of actuation with detent are used, each spool position can be locked, depending on the valve type.
Throttle insert
The use of a throttle insert is required when due to prevailing operating conditions, flows can occur during the switching processes, which exceed the performance limit of the valve. It is inserted in channel P of the directional valve.

Notice!
The specified switching power limits are valid for use with two directions of flow (e. g. from P to A and simultaneous return flow from B to T).
Due to the flow forces acting within the valves, the admissible switching power limits may be considerably lower with only one direction of flow (e. g. from P to A while port B is blocked)!
In such use cases, please consult us!
