Rexroth Hydraulic 3/2-Way Directional Valve 3WE6 1X Wet-Pin Solenoid

A: The Rexroth 3WE6 1X is a 3/2-way directional valve with three ports (A, B, and T/P) and two switching positions, operated by a single solenoid with spring return. In contrast, the 4WE6 1X is a 4/3 or 4/2-way valve with four ports (A, B, P, T) and offers 14 spool symbols. Both share the same Size 6 NG6 platform, 350 bar pressure rating, and ISO 4401-03-02-0-05 mounting pattern. The 3WE6 is optimized for single-acting cylinder and pilot control applications; the 4WE6 for full directional control of double-acting actuators.

A: Yes. The Rexroth 3WE6 features an integrated return spring that automatically pushes the control spool back to its defined rest position upon solenoid de-energization. The OFF response takes just 10–25 ms. In the de-energized state, symbol A connects port P to A (T blocked), while symbol B connects P to T (A blocked). This spring-return architecture provides inherent fail-safe behavior - if electrical power is interrupted, the valve returns to a known safe position without any external intervention, critical for single-acting cylinder clamping and safety circuits.

A: The Rexroth 3WE6 1X 3/2-way directional valve offers two spool symbols per DIN ISO 1219-1:

Symbol A: in rest (de-energized), P→A is open and T is blocked; when energized, flow switches to P→T and A is closed. Functions as a normally-open 3/2-way configuration toward port A.

Symbol B: in rest (de-energized), P→T is open and A is blocked; when energized, flow switches to P→A and T is closed. Functions as a normally-closed 3/2-way configuration toward port A.

For both symbols, port T must be used as a leakage port if operating pressure exceeds the admissible tank pressure.

A: The Rexroth 3WE6 NG6 3/2-way solenoid valve is purpose-built for applications requiring two-position switching with three ports. Common use cases include single-acting hydraulic cylinder actuation (lift/lower, clamp/release), pilot-operated directional control for larger main-stage valves, differential circuit switching in press and injection molding systems, and automated sorting or diverting mechanisms in material handling. Its 80 L/min recommended flow and 15,000 cycles/hour switching capability make it well-suited for high-duty-cycle industrial automation.

A: We offer sea freight, air freight, railway freight, road transport, and express courier delivery to accommodate different urgency and budget requirements. Buyers may select the preferred shipping mode based on destination and lead time constraints. For urgent replacement orders of popular 3WE6 models, air freight or express delivery is recommended.

A: Yes. We support customization of solenoid specifications (voltage variants beyond the standard 24 V DC), connector configurations, and branding - including private-label logo, product code, and packaging - subject to minimum order quantity. For OEM customers integrating Rexroth 3WE6 directional valves into proprietary hydraulic systems, please contact us with your technical requirements for a tailored quotation.
