***Disclaimer: The following summary contains information gathered from various sources such as product descriptions, technical specifications and catalogs. While efforts have been made to provide accurate details, inaccuracies may occur. It is advised to verify all information by contacting Bosch Rexroth directly.***
The Bosch Rexroth 4WE 6 H6X/EG12N9K4/62 SO43A-686-1 (R978911169) is a high-performance directional spool valve designed for controlling the start, stop, and direction of fluid flow within a hydraulic system. This model is part of Bosch Rexroth's WE series, which are solenoid-operated and can function as electromagnetic components within various applications. The valve is comprised of a housing, one or two electromagnets, a control spool, and return springs. It operates by moving the control spool via an energized electromagnet to an end position that dictates the flow direction. The specific model R978911169 features two switching positions with two electromagnets but does not include a spring return or detent, meaning it does not have a defined rest position when deenergized. However, it allows for manual actuation through an auxiliary device when there is no magnet supply. Proper venting of the hydraulic system is necessary to guarantee the valve's functionality. This particular product has been engineered for soft switching behavior, which minimizes switching strokes and potential acceleration values during operation—this contributes to smoother transitions and enhanced energy efficiency. Users should be aware that pressure peaks in the drain line may cause unintended movements in valves with detents; separate return lines or check valves are recommended to mitigate this risk. Additionally, internal leakage inherent to this design may increase over time. The 4WE 6 H6X/EG12N9K4/62 SO43A-686-1 offers various configuration options such as porting patterns compliant with ISO standards—with or without locating holes—and high-power solenoids that can be rotated by 90 degrees if needed. Electrical connections can be single or central based on requirements. Options also include auxiliary operating devices and optional spool position monitoring for enhanced control. The valve meets CE conformity for electrical voltages above certain thresholds and has optional UL and CSA approvals. In terms of technical specifications, this model has a size designation of 6X with maximum operating pressures up to bar and maximum flow rates specified in both DC (l/min) and AC (l/min), ensuring compatibility with a range of system requirements and performance demands.

4/3-, 4/2- or 3/2-way version Porting pattern according to ISO 4401-03-02-0-05 (with or without locating hole) High-power solenoid, optionally rotatable by 90° Electric connection as single or central connection Optional auxiliary operating device Spool position monitoring, optional CE conformity according to the Low-Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU for electrical voltages >50 VAC or >75VDC Solenoid coil as approved component with UR marking according to UL 906, edition 1982, optional Approval according to CSA C22.2 no. 139-1982, optional

Directional valves type WE are solenoid-operated directional spool valves and can be used as electromagnetic components. They control the start, stop and direction of a flow.

The directional valves essentially consist of the housing (1), one or two electromagnets (2), the control spool (3) and the return springs (4).

In the de-energized state, the control spool (3) is held in the middle or initial position by the return springs (4) (except version “O”).

When the electromagnet (2) switching in oil is energized, the control spool (3) moves from its rest position to the desired end position. This releases the required flow direction according to the selected symbol.

After switching off the electromagnet (2), the control spool (3) is pushed back to the middle or initial position (except for valve with detent “OF” and valve without spring type “O”).

An auxiliary actuation (5) enables the valve to be switched manually without magnet supply.

The hydraulic system must be properly vented to ensure proper function.

Without spring return “O” (only possible with symbols A, C and D)

This version is a directional valve with two switching positions and two electromagnets without detent. The valve without spring return on the control spool (3) has no defined basic position when de-energized.

Without spring return with detent “OF” (only possible for symbols A, C and D)

This version is a directional valve with two switching positions and two electromagnets with detent. The control spool (3) is fixed in the respective switching position by the detents. During operation, the permanent current supply to the electromagnet can thus be omitted, which contributes to energy-efficient operation.

Version “.73...A12” (soft switching behavior)

The composition of the control spools and solenoids greatly reduces the number of switching strokes that occur when the valves are switched on or off. The switching strokes, measured as acceleration values a, can be reduced by approx. 85 % compared to the standard valve, depending on the version of the control spool (see “Acceleration values”).

Notices:

Pressure peaks in the drain line to two or more valves may cause unintentional control spool movements in the version with detent. It is recommended to lay separate return lines or to install a check valve in the drain line.

Due to the design principle, the valves are subject to internal leakage, which can increase during the service life.

Type 4WE 6 E6X/...E...

Throttle insert

The use of a throttle insert is required when, due to prevailing operating conditions, flows occur during the switching processes which exceed the performance limit of the valve.

Notices:

Solenoid valves induce voltage peaks during switch-off. In order to prevent electro-magnetic interference at the system and damage to the valve control, an interference protection circuit has to be provided on the system side. Alternatively, you can also select a connector with integrated interference protection circuit. Depending on the rated current INom, circuit breakers according to tripping characteristic "K" are to be provided.
The tripping current must lie within a time interval of 0.6 s with 8 to 10 times the nominal power supply.
The required non-tripping current of the fuse must not fall below the "lower rated current" value (see preceding table). The maximum tripping current must not exceed the "upper rated current" value (see preceding table).
The temperature dependence of the tripping behavior of the circuit breakers has to be considered according to the manufacturer's specifications.

Important information on hydraulic fluids: For more information and data on the use of other hydraulicfluids, please refer to the data sheets above or contact us. There may be limitations regarding the technical valve data (temperature, pressure range, life cycle, maintenance intervals, etc.). The ignition temperature of the hydraulic fluid used must be 50 K higher than the maximum surface temperature. Bio-degradable and flame-resistant – containing water: If components with galvanic zinc coating (e.g. version "J3" or "J5") or parts containing zinc are used, small amounts of dissolved zinc may get into the hydraulic system and cause accelerated aging of the hydraulic fluid. Zinc soap may form as a chemical reaction product, which may clog filters, nozzles and solenoid valves - particularly in connection with local heat input. Flame-resistant - containing water: Due to increased cavitation tendency with HFC hydraulic fluids, the life cycle of the component may be reduced by up to 30% as compared to the use with mineral oil HLP. In order to reduce the cavitation effect, it is recommended - if possible specific to the installation - to back up the return flow pressure in ports T to approx. 20% of the pressure differential at the component. Dependent on the hydraulic fluid used, the maximum ambient and hydraulic fluid temperature must not exceed 50 °C. In order to reduce the heat input into the component, a maximum duty cycle of 50% in continuous operation has to be set for on/off valves (measuring period 300 s). If this is not possible due to the function, an energy-reducing control of these components is recommended, e.g. via a PWM plug-in amplifier.

1)	Measured without flow. The switching times were determined for a hydraulic fluid temperature of 40 °C and a viscosity of 46 mm2/s. Switching times change dependent on hydraulic fluid temperatures, operating time and application conditions.
2)	Due to the temperatures occurring at the surfaces of the solenoid coils, the standards ISO 13732-1 and ISO 4413 need to be adhered to!The specified surface temperature in AC solenoids is valid for fault-free operation. In the error case (e.g. blocking of the control spool), the surface temperature may increase above 180 °C. Thus, the system must be checked for possible dangers considering the ignition temperature of the hydraulic fluid used. As fuse protection, circuit breakers must be used, unless the creation of an ignitable atmosphere can be excluded in a different way. In this way, the surface temperature in an error case can be limited to a maximum of 220 °C. You have to use cables that have been approved of for a working temperature of more than 50 °C (individual connection) and/or 90 °C (central connection).

Notices:

The solenoid coils must not be painted. Any simultaneous actuation of 2 solenoids of one valve must be ruled out. Fast switch-on
For accelerated switching on the solenoid side, valves with individual connection and a nominal voltage of 12 V or 24 V can be controlled with two times the voltage for a maximum of 100 ms (pulse width modulation see data sheet 30362). In this connection, the maximum admissible switching frequency is reduced to 3 1/s. Dampened switching
With valves of version "A12", damping of the switch-on and switch-off process is possible (smoothly switching). In this way, switching shocks in the system are considerably reduced.

For applications outside these parameters, please consult us!

Performance limits

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

Notice:

The specified performance limits are valid for operation 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 possible performance limit may be considerably lower with only one direction of flow (e.g. from P to A while port B is blocked).
The performance limits were determined when the solenoids were at operating temperature, at 10% undervoltage and without tank preloading.
