The Sun Hydraulics CSADEXV (CSADEXV) is a shuttle valve designed for hydraulic systems, featuring a single ball mechanism that connects the higher of two work ports to the signal or common port. This model is particularly noted for its capability to allow the decay of the pressure signal when both load ports drop to a lower pressure, enhancing system responsiveness and stability. The CSADEXV is built to handle a maximum operating pressure of 5000 psi (350 bar) and has a flow capacity of 2.5 gpm (10 L/min), making it suitable for various high-pressure applications. Constructed with hardened steel balls and seats, the CSADEXV offers exceptional wear characteristics and tolerance to contamination, which ensures longevity and reliability in harsh environments. The valve incorporates Sun Hydraulics' floating style construction which minimizes internal parts binding that could arise from excessive installation torque or variations in cavity/cartridge machining. This design feature aids in maintaining operational accuracy and efficiency. For systems utilizing phosphate ester fluids, cartridges configured with EPDM seals are recommended; however, these should not be exposed to petroleum-based fluids, greases, and lubricants as they can damage the seals. The model's compact design includes a hex size of 7/8 in (22.2 mm) and weighs approximately 0.20 lb (0.10 kg), making it easy to install with an installation torque between 30 - 35 lbf ft (41 - 47 Nm). This shuttle valve is ideal for applications requiring precise control over fluid handling within hydraulic circuits while ensuring minimal leakage rates of about 5 drops/min (0.3 cc/min).
