Functional Description
The RPE3 directional control valves consist of housing
(1), a control spool (5) with two centering springs (4) and
cylindrical operating solenoids (2, 3).
The three-position directional control valves are fitted
with two solenoids and two springs. Two-position
directional control valves have either one solenoid and
one return spring or two solenoids and a detent
assembly.
The operating solenoids are DC solenoids. For AC
supply the solenoids are provided with a rectifiers which
are integrated in the DIN connector socket as part of the
solenoid. The connectors (6, 7) can be turned by 90°. By
loosening the nut (8), the solenoids can be turned or
replaced without interfering with any seals of the valve.
In the case of solenoid malfunction or power failure, the
spool of the valve can be shifted by manual override (9),
provided the pressure in T-port does not exceed 25 bar.
The valve housing (1) is phosphate coated and the
solenoids (2, 3) are zinc coated.

Important: This directional valve provides control spool
soft shifting by means of orifice situated in the solenoid
armature.To ensure the proper function of the valve,
perfect air bleeding of the solenoid is required (by us of
bleeding plug (1). The plugs are accessible after
removing the rubber boot (2) from the solenoid retaining
nut (3).

When the distributor contains two electromagnets any of the two electromagnets can be switched on only after the
other one switches off. The electromagnets switching time on distributors with locking arrangement must not be
shorter than 60 ms.With directional valves with cushioned spool shifting, the switching time must correspond
with the shifting time.
Distributors with other interconnections than those shown in the catalogue can be supplied on request.
The packaging foil can be recycled
The transport base plate can be returned to the manufacturer.
Mounting screws M5 x 45 DIN 912-10.9 or bolts must be ordered separately.
The screws tightening torque is 8.9 Nm (6.6 ft-Ibs).
