The Sun Hydraulics ACU (Material Number: ACU) is a versatile line mount hydraulic manifold designed for efficient fluid control and distribution in hydraulic systems. This model features an inline body type with no specific interface, allowing it to be seamlessly integrated into various setups. It is constructed with 11 mounting holes, each with a diameter of 0.28 inches (7.1 mm), and is designed for through-hole mounting, providing stability and ease of installation. The manifold accommodates 11 open cavities, specifically designed for the T162A cavity type, enhancing its adaptability to different hydraulic configurations. With a port size of 3/8 BSPP, the Sun Hydraulics ACU ensures compatibility with standard hydraulic fittings and hoses. The manifold is made from 6061T651 aluminum, known for its strength, cost-effectiveness, machinability, availability in diverse forms, and excellent corrosion resistance. This choice of material negates the need for anodizing due to its inherent durability against corrosive environments. The Sun Hydraulics ACU is ideal for applications requiring reliable fluid routing without additional wear surfaces since it functions purely as a conduit within hydraulic systems rather than a wear-intensive component. Its robust design makes it suitable for demanding environments where fatigue life is critical; anodizing has been avoided to maintain optimal fatigue resistance. Overall, the Sun Hydraulics ACU offers a practical solution for hydraulic systems requiring efficient flow management and distribution while minimizing potential points of failure due to material fatigue or corrosion.
