The Sun Hydraulics B9T (B9T) is a versatile manifold designed specifically for use with solenoid-operated and electroproportional cartridges. This component features additional material around the cavity, allowing for coil clearance and accommodating Sun's weatherized coil through a necessary spotface. The manifold is line-mounted and does not require an interface, making it suitable for various hydraulic applications. It is bidirectional and accepts both standard and weatherized coils, providing flexibility in its usage. The body of the manifold includes two mounting holes with a diameter of 0.34 inches (8.6 mm) that go through completely, ensuring secure attachment. It also has two open cavities compatible with the T13A cavity type and ports sized at 14 BSPP. This manifold is crafted from 6061 T651 aluminum, known for its strength, affordability, machining difficulty, availability in various forms, and exceptional corrosion resistance. Despite this resistance to corrosion, Sun Hydraulics chooses not to anodize their aluminum bodies due to several reasons such as cost implications, logistical challenges given the high volume of production, consistency issues in anodizing colors like blue or black, potential increase in breakaway torque during removal processes, and a significant reduction in fatigue life by 20 to 50 percent due to anodizing-induced cracks under pressure. Overall, the Sun Hydraulics B9T manifold is engineered to deliver reliable performance in hydraulic systems that require solenoid or electroproportional control while maintaining durability against environmental factors without the need for additional anodizing processes.
