Description
The 3-way/2-position directional seat valves, series
W1R…, are size 6, pneumatically operated, direct ac-
ting, pressure balanced, push-in valves. In the normal
condition (non-operated), ow in port 1 is shut o
without leakage. They are designed on the tried and
tested principle of the guided poppet, and the guide
spool has a seal. This valve type has an underlapped
spool. In the crossover position, all connections are
thus connected, i.e., there is a connection between
ports 1, 2, and 3 during the valve’s switching period.
The pneumatic control head has a G1/8“ threaded
port for the air feed. All external parts of cartridge
are zinc-nickel plated, the aluminum control head is
hard-anodized, and the valve is thus suitable for use
in the harshest operating environments. These valves
are predominantly used in certain mobile and indus-
trial applications where leak-tight shut-o functions
are crucially important. Examples are where loads,
tensions, or clamping forces must be held without le-
akage. For self-assembly, please refer to the section
related data sheets.

Installation information
ATTENTION!
Only qualied personnel with mechanical
skills may carry out any maintenance work.
Generally, the only work that should ever be
undertaken is to check, and possibly replace,
the seals. When changing seals, oil or grease
the new seals thoroughly before tting them.
NOTE!
1) When tting the slip-in valves, use
the specied tightening torque for the
mounting screws. The value can be
found in the chapter "Technical data".
