Improved productivity and quality
We offer an incredible range of Vickers by Danfoss proportional directional valves with a variety of features, sizes, flow rates, and performance levels to meet customer demands in industrial and mobile markets. With options for on-board electronics (OBE) and non-OBE, IP67 environmental protection, reduced power consumption, and more, Vickers valves reduce commissioning time, and long-term costs.
NEW! Check out the new KBFRG4-05 proportional valve with a round solenoid design, delivering superior performance and premium features.
- Size – NG 6 to NG 32 (D03 to D10)
- Pressure – Up to 350 bar (5,000 psi)
- Flow – Up to 700 L/min (185 gal/min)
Vickers by Danfoss proportional directional valves can help you:
- Reduce commissioning time through plug-and-play functionality
- Reduce labor time and costs through minimized wiring and easier service-ability
- Increase automation and quality
- Improve productivity and machine uptime
Upgrade to onboard (OBE) electronics
Proportional valves with onboard electronics offer several advantages, including a factory-matched valve and amplifier, which reduces the possibility of selection and installation errors. Installation and setup is faster and easier, with limited user adjustments and reduced electrical cabinet space requirements.
Our KB family of proportional directional valves with onboard electronics (OBE) features superior reliability and durability, IP67 environmental protection and reduced power consumption. With a controller built in, valves with onboard electronics (OBE) do not require an external controller.
Valves with OBE offer:
- Easier setup with limited user adjustments for faster, lower cost valve package installation
- Optimized valve with robust amplifier design
- Reduced electrical cabinet space
- Superior durability with high levels of EMC, vibration and shock resistance
Product range

Enhance your system with proportional valve electronics
Add precision, speed and accuracy to your industrial proportional valve application with Danfoss amplifiers and control cards. These add-ons feature user-friendly front panels with LEDs, so you can easily monitor and adjust card functions. The units provide both voltage and current input signals, with translation to standard, efficient PWM output signals.
Don’t forget the subplates and bolts kits
To install industrial valves, you need subplates and bolt kits. This hardware is engineered especially for Vickers by Danfoss valves and manifolds to give your systems the flat surfaces and stiffness required for a reliable seal.
