General Information
General Description
Five types of valve are
available with different
controls primarily for
controlling the starting,
stopping and direction of fluid
flow in a system.
The valves are developed
from the well-known series
of DG4V-3-60 series solenoid
operated valves (see Eaton
literature # GB-C-2015).
These manual valves are
available with a choice of
up to nine different spool
types, depending on valve
configuration. All spools
have been designed to
provide good low-shock
characteristics. External
regulation of the control
input by hydraulic, lever,
pneumatic, cam or plunger
operation allows matching
to virtually any requirement
where electrical control is not
appropriate.
Models include no-spring,
spring offset, spring centered
and detented versions.
DG3V-3-*-60 Hydraulic
Operated
The hydraulic operated DG3V-
3-*-60 directional valves are
used to control the direction
of flow in a hydraulic circuit,
which would control the
movement of a work cylinder
or the rotation of a fluid
motor.
DG**V-3-*-60 Lever/Cam/
Plunger Operated
Operating Information
The DG21V-3 plunger
operator valves are internally
drained to port T. They may
be used only when surges
or back pressure in the tank
line cannot overcome the
force applied to depress the
plunger.
DG17/20/21 models must
be released from actuated
positions, without restriction
to ensure proper spring
return.
Manual lever and cam
operations must be released
from their actuated positions,
without any restrictions to
spring return.
Cam operated directional
control valve installation
recommendations:
• Maximum cam angle 35°
• Cam travel for dead band
of 9° 30’ on either side of
center for closed center
spools for 35° cam.
• This dead band should be
taken into consideration
when designing cam and
system circuits.
• Cam should not drive roller
at its vertical centerline to
avoid any side loading on
roller lever mechanism.
Actuation Force
Under rated conditions*, the
approximate actuation force
will be as shown in the chart
below:
*Tank return must be designed so
that transient tank line pressure
peake do not exceed 6,9 bar (100
psi). For tank return line pressure
in excess of 6,9 bar (100 psi) lever
movement must be assisted.
Note:
In right hand assembly, operator
“A” is always removed. In left
hand assembly, operator “B” is
always removed. Please note
that European designations are
the opposite. See diagram on the
nameplate of the valve for operator
(port) identification.
DG18V-3-**-60 Air
Operated
Eaton air operated
DG18V-3-**-60 directional
control valves come in four
basic versions: 3 position
spring centered; 2 position
detent; 2 position spring
offset to port A, B operator;
2 position spring offset to port
B, A operator.
Note:
Manual actuator in end cap feature
(P2) available on single operator
models only. In right hand assembly,
operator “A” is always removed. In
left hand assembly, operator “B” is
always removed. See identification
plate on top of valve for operator
(port) identification.
For every 3,3 bar (50 psi)
increase in tank line pressure
the air pilot pressure must
be increased 0.07 bar (1 psi).
Maximum tank line pressure
is 100 bar (1450 psi).
Nameplate identification label
is asymmetrical and fixes
the “A” and “B” operators
in relation to the “P” port.
Designers should note for
installation on vertical panels.
On all right hand models,
when operator “A” is
pressurized, flow is always P
to A. When operator “B” is
pressurized, flow is always
P to B. Operators “A” and
“B” are identified on the
identification plate on top
of the valve. For left hand
assembly this is reversed
(P to B when the “A”
operator is pressurized).
Shift Time
Shift time is essentially
dependent upon pilot
pressure, line length and
diameter, and speed of
control mechanism. Spring
return time from the
offset to center position
is approximately 45 msec.
at rated flow and pressure
assuming minimal back
pressure in the pilot line.
Shifting Action
Spring centered and spring
offset types will be spring
positioned unless sufficient
pilot pressure is maintained
at pilot port to shift and hold
the valve spool. No-spring
(offered as pilot valves for
no-spring detented models
only) require only momentary
pressurization of pilot port
to shift spool (approx. 0.1
seconds).
When pilot pressure is
relieved, spool will remain in
last position attained provided
there is no severe shock,
vibration or unusual pressure
transients.
Note:
Surges of oil in a common tank line
serving these and other valves can
be of sufficient magnitude to cause
inadvertent shifting of these valves.
This is particularly critical in the
no-spring and no-spring detented
type valves. Separate tank lines or a
vented manifold with a continuous
downward path to tank is preferred.
Any sliding spool, if held
shifted under pressure for
long periods of time, may
stick and not spring return
due to fluid residue formation
(silting) and therefore, should
be cycled periodically to
prevent this from happening.
If this valve is used for
purposes other than a 4-way
valve or as shown in the
graphical symbol on the valve,
consult your distributor or
sales engineer.
Mounting Position
There is no restriction on
mounting of spring centered
or spring offset models.
Detented models must be
mounted with the spool
bore horizontal to reduce the
possibility of accidental spool
shift due to shock and/or
vibration.
Port Connections
Port connections are made
by mounting the valve on a
manifold or subplate having
mounting dimensions which
conform to NFPA–D03
(ISO-4401-03) configurations.

Pilot Pressure Requirements
The spools require the minimum pilot
pressures shown in the graph below to
overcome the spring force and any flow
forces. Some spools are limited by the
ability to spring return the valve.
Minimum pilot pressure required at a
flow rate of 20 l/min (5.5 USgpm):
Maximum Flow Rates
Some spools are limited in the
conditions they will operate without
reliability problems. These are the
single ended spools which must
operate within limits outlined in the
graph below.
Pressure Drop Characteristics
The pressure drop curves give
approximate pressure drop ΔP when
passing 21 cSt (100 SUS) fluid(s) having
.87 specific gravity.
For any other viscosity the pressure
drop
ΔP will change as follows:
For any other specific gravity (G
1
)* the
pressure drop P will be approximately:
ΔP
1
= ΔP(G
1
/G)
* Specific gravity of fluid may be obtained from its producer.
Fire-resistant fluids have higher specific ravities than oil.

The pressure drop curves give approximate pressure drop ΔP
when passing 36 cSt (100 SUS) fluid(s) having .87 specific gravity.
For any other viscosity the pressure drop
ΔP will change as
follows:
For any other specific gravity (G

)* the pressure drop ΔP will be
approximately: ΔP
1
= ΔP (G
1
/ G)
* Specific gravity of fluid may be obtained from its producer.
