Walvoil SD5/5-P(KG4-210)is a 5-section monoblock directional control valve for mobile machinery.Configured as a directional control valve with parallel circuit architecture,this monoblock hydraulic valve delivers a nominal flow of 45 L/min at a maximum operating pressure of 315 bar.It is engineered for outrigger stabilizer leg control on truck-mounted cranes,aerial platforms,and concrete pump trucks.
What Is a Monoblock Directional Control Valve?
A monoblock directional control valve is a hydraulic component that integrates multiple spool sections within a single cast body to direct pressurized fluid to different actuators in sequence or parallel.Unlike sectional valves assembled from individual blocks,the monoblock design eliminates inter-section seals and external tie rods,reducing potential leak paths and overall envelope dimensions.

The SD5/5-P is a parallel-circuit monoblock valve within the Walvoil SD5 series.Its 5-section configuration allows independent control of up to 5 hydraulic functions—typically four stabilizer legs plus one auxiliary circuit—through manual lever actuation with spring return to center.The"P"suffix denotes parallel circuit architecture,while"KG4-210"specifies the main pressure relief valve factory setting at 210 bar.

Technical Highlights
Substantial spool dimensions support heavy-duty cycling.The 16 mm diameter plunger with 37 mm stroke provides robust flow metering authority and resistance to spool binding under thermal expansion or fluid contamination,which is critical for outrigger circuits that remain pressurized under static load.
Type S free-flow gallery enables power beyond functionality.The open-center gallery design allows series connection of additional valves downstream without interrupting flow,supporting complex hydraulic systems where a pump supplies multiple valve stacks.
Four-grade relief valve system protects downstream actuators.The KG4 designation specifies a cartridge-type main relief valve available in four factory-calibrated pressure grades up to 315 bar,with this unit preset to 210 bar—matching typical stabilizer leg working pressures.
Open-center parallel circuit minimizes energy waste in standby.When all spools are in neutral,pump flow circulates through the gallery back to tank at near-zero pressure,reducing heat generation during idle periods common in mobile machinery operations.
Applications
Truck-mounted crane outrigger control:Directs hydraulic flow to four stabilizer legs for vehicle leveling.The 210 bar relief setting protects against overload when legs encounter uneven terrain or obstacles during deployment.
Aerial work platform stabilization:Controls manual stabilizer circuits on trailer-mounted platforms where individual leg positioning is required to compensate for site slope.
Concrete pump truck stabilizer actuation:Manages front and rear outrigger cylinders for pump truck stabilization,handling return flows up to 25 bar without cavitation.
Small loader and agricultural machinery:Provides implement control for front-end loaders and small tractors requiring up to five simultaneous hydraulic functions,per Walvoil application documentation.
Service crane and utility vehicle hydraulics:Serves as the primary directional control valve for service cranes and municipal vehicles where simple,robust manual control is preferred over electrohydraulic alternatives.
Selection Guidance
Suitable applications:
Mobile hydraulic systems requiring 5 manually actuated directional control functions in a single compact valve body,with design preference for BSP G 3/8"ports
Outrigger and stabilizer circuits operating at 45 L/min maximum flow with pump pressures up to 315 bar,where 210 bar relief valve setting is within the actuator design limit
Systems needing open-center parallel circuit architecture where pump flow circulates freely in neutral position
Installations where NBR seals are compatible with the hydraulic fluid,maintaining viscosity between 15 and 75 mm²/s and fluid temperature from-20°C to 80°C
Not recommended for:
Series circuit applications requiring a closed-center design.Select a Series-type variant with"S"suffix instead of"P"(parallel).The SD5/5-S alternative provides identical flow and pressure ratings with series flow path configuration.
Applications exceeding 45 L/min flow demand or requiring more than 5 sections.For higher flow,consider the SDM100 series(70 L/min)or SDS180 series(160 L/min)from Walvoil.If more than 5 sections are needed,the SD6 modular sectional valve series supports up to 12 sections.
Electrohydraulic remote control requirements without additional solenoid interface.The standard SD5/5-P ships with manual lever actuators.For remote electric control,specify the electrohydraulic control option or consider the SD6 series,which offers factory-integrated electric actuation.
