The Bosch Rexroth DRE 6-1X/100MG24K4M-3 (R900978720) is a pilot-operated pressure reducing valve designed for precise control of system pressure through its advanced technical setup. This valve features three primary components: a pilot control valve, a proportional solenoid with integrated control electronics, and a main valve with a main control spool. It operates by adjusting the pressure in channel A via the proportional solenoid, depending on the command value received.
In its default state, the spring holds the main control spool in position to allow flow from A to T while blocking P to A. The pressure reduction function is activated by building pilot pressure in the control chamber as dictated by the command value, causing hydraulic fluid to flow from P to A. As port A's pressure reaches the set level of the pilot control valve, this triggers movement of the main control spool to balance out at the desired pressure.
Should port A's pressure exceed this set point, the DRE 6-1X/100MG24K4M-3 ensures safety through its pressure limitation feature by shifting the main control spool further left, establishing a connection from A to T and capping port A's pressure at the set command value.
This model is suitable for subplate mounting or sandwich plate design with porting patterns according to ISO standards. It offers minimal set pressures in ports A or P and includes type DREE valves with integrated electronics OBE for enhanced functionality. The component series X indicates its design series and it can handle maximum operating pressures up to bar and flows up to l/min, ensuring reliable performance across various applications.

Pilot-operated pressure reducing valve in ports A and P1 with pressure limitation Operation by means of a proportional solenoid For subplate mounting or sandwich plate design: Porting pattern according to ISO 4401-03-02-05 Minimum set pressure in ports A or P1 Type DREE with integrated electronics (OBE)
Valves of type DRE are electrically pilot-operated 3-way pressure reducing valves with pressure limitation of the actuator. They are used for reducing a system pressure.
Technical set-up:
The valve consists of three main assemblies:
Pilot control valve (1) Proportional solenoid (2) Main valve (3) with main control spool (4)Function:
General function:
Command value-dependent setting of the pressure to be reduced in channel A via the proportional solenoid (2). In the depressurized port P, the spring (17) holds the main control spool (4) in the initial position. Thus, opening the connection from A to T and blocking of the connection from P to A. Pressure connection from port P to the ring channel (5). Pilot oil flows from the bore (6) to port T, via the flow controller (7), the nozzle (8) to the pilot control valve (1), the throttle gap (9) to the longitudinal groove (10) and the bores (11, 12).Pressure reduction:
Build-up of the pilot pressure in the control chamber (16) as function of the command value. Movement of the main control spool (4) to the right, hydraulic fluid flows from P to A. Actuator pressure pending in port A to the spring chamber (15) via channel (13) and nozzle (14). Increase in the pressure in port A to the set pressure of the pilot control valve (1) leads to the movement of the main control spool (4) to the left. Pressure in port A is almost identical with the set pressure at the pilot control valve (1).Pressure limitation:
If the pressure in port A exceeds the set pressure of the pilot control valve (1), the main control spool (4) is moved further to the left. Thus, opening of the connection from A to T and limitation of the pressure pending in port A to the set command value.

Pressure in port A dependent on the command value (manufacturing tolerance); without flow
(Z)DRE

1) | With type (Z)DRE, the manufacturing tolerance at the external amplifier can be adjusted using the command value attenuator potentiometer "Gw". With the digital amplifier, the setting is made using the "Limit" parameter. In this connection, the control current according to the technical data must not be exceeded! In order to match several valves to the same characteristic curve, at a command value of 100%, the pressure must not exceed the maximum set pressure of the relevant pressure rating at no valve. |
