The Sun Hydraulics CSAZBXN (CSAZBXN) is a highly efficient shuttle valve designed for hydraulic systems requiring reliable alternate pressure paths. This model, housed within the T163A cavity, operates optimally with a fluid capacity of 1.25 gpm (4.7 L/min) and can withstand a maximum operating pressure of 5000 psi (350 bar). The valve's design incorporates a single ball that connects the higher of two work ports to either the signal or common port, with the pressure signal sensed at port 2. This configuration allows the pressure signal to decay when both load ports drop to a lower pressure, enhancing system responsiveness and stability. The CSAZBXN features Sun Hydraulics' floating style construction, which significantly reduces the risks of internal parts binding due to excessive installation torque or variations in cavity/cartridge machining. This design choice ensures longevity and reliability even under stringent operational conditions. The shuttle cartridges are built with hardened steel balls and seats that offer excellent wear characteristics and high tolerance against contamination. For installation, this model requires a valve hex size of 3/4 in. (19.1 mm) and an installation torque between 20 - 25 lbf ft (27 - 33 Nm). The minimal valve leakage rate at 110 SUS (24 cSt) is noted at approximately 5 drops/min (0.3 cc/min), indicating efficient performance with minimal fluid loss. Weighing just .20 lb (0.10 kg), the CSAZBXN remains lightweight yet robust enough for various applications requiring dependable shuttle valve operations. Additionally, it supports Viton seal kits for enhanced sealing capabilities under diverse conditions.
