The Bosch Rexroth 4WMM6E73-5X/F (R978906911) is a high-quality directional spool valve designed for precise control of fluid flow in hydraulic systems. This valve falls under the WM series, which are mechanical, manually actuated valves known for their reliability and durability. The 4WMM6E73-5X/F model features a hand lever for actuation and includes a detent mechanism, allowing each spool position to be locked securely into place as needed. This particular model is equipped with a throttle insert to regulate flow and prevent performance issues that can arise from excessive flow during switching processes. The throttle insert is strategically placed in channel P of the valve to ensure optimal functionality. Additionally, the valve boasts porting patterns that comply with both DIN form A without locating holes and ISO with locating holes, offering flexibility for various hydraulic system requirements. The 4WMM6E73-5X/F valve has a size component series X, which indicates its compatibility with specific system requirements concerning maximum operating pressure and flow rates. It can handle a maximum operating pressure of up to 350 bar and allows for maximum flow rates as specified by the manufacturer's standards. Designed for versatile application in hydraulic systems requiring robust manual control, this model includes options for inductive position switches and proximity sensors that are contactless, enhancing its operational capabilities. These features make the Bosch Rexroth 4WMM6E73-5X/F an ideal choice for those seeking manual directional control valves that offer precision, adaptability, and long-lasting performance.

4/3-, 4/2- or 3/2-way version Porting pattern according to DIN 24340 form A (without locating hole) Porting pattern according to ISO 4401-03-02-0-05 (with locating hole) Type of actuation: hand lever Inductive position switch and proximity sensors (contactless)

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) (hand lever), 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.

Performance limits

(measured with HLP46, ϑOil = 40 ±5 °C)

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 limit 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!
