The Bosch Rexroth 3WP6B6X/5 (R978005832) is a direct operated directional spool valve that is part of the WP series, known for its fluidic actuation and control over the start, stop, and direction of flow within hydraulic systems. This model features a robust housing that contains one or two pneumatic actuation cylinders, a control spool, and one or two return springs. The ports are radially positioned for control purposes, and when deenergized, the control spool maintains its central or initial position by the return springs unless it's an impulse spool variant.
The 3WP6B6X/5 model is designed to move to the desired spool position through its actuation elements. It includes a throttle insert for situations where operating conditions could lead to flows during switching processes that exceed the valve's performance limit; this insert is placed in channel P.
This specific model comes without spring return and with detent (version ..OF..), allowing each spool position to be locked when using actuation elements with detent. Additionally, there is a version without spring return (version ..O..) where no defined spool position exists in the deenergized state.
The 3WP6B6X/5 valve aligns with porting patterns according to DIN form A without locating hole and ISO with locating hole. Subplates are available but must be ordered separately as indicated on a separate data sheet. The valve also supports inductive position switches and proximity sensors for contactless detection of the spool position.
With a maximum operating pressure of bar and maximum flow rate of l/min (specific values not provided), this valve is suitable for various applications requiring precise hydraulic flow control. Bosch Rexroth ensures high reliability and performance with their WP series valves, making them ideal for integration into sophisticated hydraulic systems.

General information
Valves of type WP are fluidically actuated directional spool valves. They control the start, stop and direction of a flow.
The directional valves basically consist of housing (1), one or two actuation elements (2) (pneumatic actuation cylinder), control spool (3) and one or two return springs (4). The ports for the control are positioned radially (5).
When de-energized, the control spool (3) is held in the central position or in the initial position by the return springs (4) (except impulse spool).
The control spool (3) is moved to the desired spool position by means of the actuation elements.
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.
Type 4WP 6 E6X/...
Without spring return, with detent,
version ..OF/..
Directional valves with pneumatic actuation are also available as a 2-spool position valve with detent (7). If actuation elements with detent are used, each spool position can be locked.
Without spring return,
version ..O/..
If actuation elements without return springs and without detent are used, there is no defined spool position in the de-energized state.

Minimum pilot pressure dependent on the tank pressure
At a higher tank pressure, the minimum pilot pressure has to be increased according to this diagram.
Performance limits
(measured with HLP46, ϑOil = 40 ±5 °C)
Notice!
The switching function of the valves is independent from the filtration due to the adhesive effect. To achieve the specified admissible flow values, a full flow filtration with 25 μm is recommended. The flow forces acting within the valves also influence the flow performance.
With 4-way directional valves, the specified flow data are therefore valid for normal operation with 2 directions of flow (e. g. from P to A and simultaneous return flow from B to T).
If there is only one direction of flow, the admissible flow may be significantly lower in critical cases (e. g. if a 4-way directional valve is used as a 3-way directional valve due to blocked port A or B).
