Walvoil SD25/2/AC(XG-210)/18L/18L/RC is a 2-spool sectional remote control hydraulic valve within the SD25 high-flow series.This 2 spool hydraulic control valve features a 210-bar main relief setting and two 18L-spool(A-type with detent)working sections.It provides 240 L/min nominal flow at up to 315 bar maximum pressure for drilling jumbos,earth moving equipment,and heavy material handling machinery.
What Is a 2 Spool Hydraulic Control Valve?
A 2 spool hydraulic control valve is a directional control device that uses two independent sliding spools to regulate hydraulic fluid flow and pressure to separate actuator circuits.Each spool controls one hydraulic function,such as a cylinder or motor,allowing an operator to manage two distinct work functions from a single valve assembly.

The SD25 series is a sectional valve platform manufactured by Walvoil(part of Interpump Group‘s Valves Division).Valves within this series are assembled from modular components—inlet element,working sections,and outlet element—secured together with tie rods.This configuration allows from 1 to 12 working sections in a single valve stack.The model SD25/2/AC(XG-210)/18L/18L/RC is a 2-section configuration intended for open-center hydraulic systems.It is designed for remote cable actuation(denoted by“RC”suffix),meaning the valve body can be mounted remotely from the operator station and controlled via flexible push-pull cables connected to a joystick or lever console.

Technical Highlights
Main relief valve integrated at inlet protects the entire valve assembly.The AC(XG-210)designation indicates an inlet element with a factory-preset main pressure relief valve set at 210 bar,which limits maximum system pressure delivered to both working sections.This protects downstream actuators and hoses from over-pressurization without requiring external relief components.
Individual load check valve on each working section prevents load drop during spool shifting.Every working section in the SD25 series includes a built-in check valve on the pressure channel.This design prevents momentary load lowering when the spool transitions between positions—a critical safety feature for drilling boom positioning and lifting applications.
Sectional modular architecture enables field-configurable valve assemblies.The SD25 platform uses tie-rod construction to bolt the inlet element,working sections,and outlet element together as a single rigid block.This allows technicians to add or replace working sections in the field without replacing the entire valve assembly.
18L spool type provides detent-positioned A-type double-acting control.The 18L spool designation refers to an A-type control piston that delivers double-acting function with a mechanical detent to hold the spool in position without continuous operator force.This is essential for drilling applications where a function such as feed pressure or boom swing must remain engaged while the operator attends to other controls.
Remote cable actuation eliminates hydraulic pilot lines and reduces system complexity.The“RC”suffix indicates compatibility with flexible push-pull cable controls rather than direct manual levers or hydraulic pilot circuits.Cable actuation allows the main valve stack to be mounted in a protected location on the machine chassis,with only lightweight control cables routed to the operator cab—reducing heat exposure and simplifying hose routing.
Applications
Drill jumbo boom and feed control:Directs hydraulic flow to the boom positioning cylinders and drifter feed circuits on underground and surface drilling rigs.The 18L detent spools allow operators to lock feed pressure during extended drilling cycles without continuous manual input.
Earth moving machine attachment control:Manages two independent hydraulic functions on excavators,all-terrain cranes,and motor graders.The 240 L/min nominal flow supports high-speed cylinder actuation for bucket tilt,boom swing,or blade angle adjustment.
Large agricultural loader implement circuits:Controls dual-acting cylinders on front-end loaders and telehandlers.The load check valve on each section prevents implement sag when shifting between lift and tilt functions.
Material handling equipment actuation:Operates fork positioners,side-shift cylinders,and mast tilt functions on large container forklifts and stackers.The sectional design allows the valve to be configured with additional sections as handling requirements evolve.
Waste compactor hydraulic systems:Provides directional control for compaction plate cylinders and container lift mechanisms.The cast iron housing and NBR seals withstand the high-duty-cycle operation and contaminated environments typical of waste handling equipment.
Drain machine and municipal vehicle hydraulics:Manages vacuum pump engagement and boom positioning on sewer cleaning and drain maintenance vehicles.Remote cable control enables the operator to position the valve remotely while maintaining precise proportional control feel.
Selection Guidance
Suitable applications:
Hydraulic systems requiring 2 independent directional control circuits with a combined flow capacity up to 240 L/min and maximum operating pressure of 315 bar
Applications where remote operator station placement is required and flexible cable actuation is preferred over hydraulic pilot lines
Open-center hydraulic circuit configurations(parallel gallery standard;series circuit available as optional configuration)
Machines operating within-15°C to+80°C ambient oil temperature range with fluid cleanliness maintained to ISO 4406-/19/16 or better
Not recommended for:
Load-sensing(LS)closed-center hydraulic systems.The standard SD25/2/AC(XG-210)configuration is designed for open-center circuits.For load-sensing applications,select the SD25 LS variant with appropriate inlet element configuration.
Direct manual lever operation.This model includes the“RC”suffix for remote cable actuation.For direct hand-lever control at the valve mounting location,select a manual lever variant without the RC designation,such as SD25/2/AC(XG-210)/18L/18L.
Applications requiring more than 2 working sections.This is a 2-section valve assembly.For additional functions,select a 3-section or 4-section variant such as SD25/3/AC(XG-210)or SD25/4/AC(XG-210).
