The Bosch Rexroth 4WMM6E5X//N12 (R978912427) is a high-quality directional spool valve engineered for precise control over the start, stop, and direction of fluid flow in hydraulic systems. This manually actuated valve is part of the WM series and features a robust housing, a hand lever for operation, a control spool, and one or two return springs that ensure the spool remains in its central or initial position when not engaged. The model is designed with a detent mechanism allowing each spool position to be securely locked, which is particularly useful in applications requiring stable flow control.
This particular model comes with a throttle insert option to regulate flow during switching processes that may exceed the valve's performance limit. This insert is particularly beneficial in managing operational conditions where unexpected flow surges occur, as it can be placed in channel P of the directional valve to maintain system integrity.
The 4WMM6E5X//N12 conforms to porting pattern standards according to DIN form A without locating holes and ISO with locating holes, ensuring compatibility with various hydraulic systems. It offers flexibility as it can be configured as a 2-way or 3-way version depending on the specific requirements of the application. The valve also accommodates inductive position switches and proximity sensors for contactless detection of the spool's position, enhancing its functionality within automated setups.
With its size and component series X, this model can withstand a maximum operating pressure of up to 350 bar and facilitate a maximum flow rate of up to 60 liters per minute. Such specifications make it suitable for an array of hydraulic applications where reliable manual control over fluid dynamics is 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) (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.

Important information on hydraulic fluids! For further information and data on the use of other hydraulic fluids, please refer to data sheet 90220 or contact us! There may be limitations regarding the technical valve data (temperature, pressure range, life cycle, maintenance intervals, etc.)! The flash point of the hydraulic fluid used must be 40 K higher than the maximum solenoid surface temperature.Flame-resistant – containing water: Maximum pressure differential per control edge 50 bar. Pressure pre-loading at the tank port >20% of the pressure differential; otherwise, increased cavitation Life cycle compared to operation with mineral oil HL, HLP 50 to 100% |

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!
