The Bosch Rexroth 4WH 6 D5X/O/12 (R900907245) is a high-performance directional spool valve that is designed to control the start, stop, and direction of fluid flow in hydraulic systems. This valve falls under the WH series and is characterized by its robust construction which includes a housing, actuation elements such as a hydraulic actuation cylinder, a control spool, and return springs. The ports for control are radially positioned to facilitate ease of installation and maintenance.
Featuring an innovative design that allows for precise control of hydraulic functions, the 4WH 6 D5X/O/12 valve operates without spring return but includes a detent mechanism for locking each spool position securely. This feature ensures stable operation even under variable operating conditions. In addition, an optional throttle insert can be integrated into channel P to manage flow rates that exceed the valve's performance limit during switching processes.
The model code indicates specific characteristics: '4WH' denotes the series type and size; '6' refers to the size of the component; 'D5X' specifies the spool type and function; '/O' signifies that it operates without spring return; '12' indicates its maximum operating pressure in bars.
This direct-operated directional spool valve is versatile in its applications due to its compatibility with various operating methods, predominantly hydraulic. It adheres to international standards with porting patterns according to DIN form A without locating hole and ISO with locating hole. Subplates for this model are available but need to be ordered separately. Additionally, it can be equipped with inductive position switches and proximity sensors for contactless detection of spool position.
Overall, Bosch Rexroth's 4WH 6 D5X/O/12 valve is engineered for reliability and optimal performance in controlling fluid dynamics within a wide range of hydraulic systems.

General information
Valves of type WH 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) (hydraulic 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.
Typ 4WH 6 E5X/...
Without spring return, with detent,
version ..OF/..
Directional valves with hydraulic 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).
