Valve unit

A valve unit, having an electrofluidically pilot-operated main valve which comprises a main valve slide which by way of a fluid impingement which is opposite to one another can be moved to and fro whilst carrying out a switch-over movement, and having a pilot valve device which is arranged adjacently to the main valve in a valve longitudinal direction which is perpendicular to a valve height direction and by way of which the fluid impingement of the main valve slide can be controlled by a pilot fluid via a first pilot working channel and a second pilot working channel of the valve unit,

• wherein the pilot valve device comprises an electrically actuatable first pilot valve and an electrically actuatable second pilot valve wherein the two pilot valves are rowed to one another in the valve longitudinal direction and wherein the first pilot valve is arranged between the main valve and the second pilot valve, wherein the first pilot valve comprises a first pilot valve housing,
• wherein a fluid flow of the pilot fluid in the first pilot working channel is controllable by way of the first pilot valve and a fluid flow of the pilot fluid in the second pilot working channel is controllable by way of the second pilot valve,
• wherein the second pilot working channel on its way between the second pilot valve and the main valve passes through the first pilot valve, and
• wherein the first pilot valve is provided with a hand-actuation device which comprises a hand actuation member which is received at least partly in an actuation member receiving space of the first pilot valve housing and which is accessible from outside the pilot valve device for manually creating an actuation movement which actuates the first pilot valve, wherein the second pilot working channel with a receiving space channel section passes through the actuation member receiving space, which is formed in the first pilot valve housing, in the region of the hand actuation member.
