The Sun Hydraulics DCDADCN (DCDADCN) is a sophisticated hydraulic valve designed for high-pressure applications. This three-position, 4-way directional cartridge valve is spring-centered and features a 6-port configuration which allows for versatile plumbing options. It can be customized with one of 10 different spool options depending on the specific requirements of the application, affecting the pilot-to-shift valve capacity. The DCDADCN model operates efficiently with all ports capable of handling up to 5000 psi or 350 bar, including the x and y pilot ports (ports 5 and 6). The valve\u2019s maximum flow capacity ranges from 11 to 30 gpm (38 to 120 L/min), making it suitable for various flow rates required in complex hydraulic systems. A minimum pilot pressure of 150 psi (10.5 bar) is necessary to shift the valve, ensuring reliable operation under diverse conditions. Constructed with a hardened spool and sleeve, the DCDADCN offers low leakage rates and exceptional wear characteristics, essential for maintaining system integrity and performance over time. The innovative Sun floating style construction minimizes internal part binding, which could occur due to excessive installation torque or discrepancies in cavity/cartridge machining. This model also features practical installation dimensions such as a valve hex size of 1-1/8 inches (28.6 mm) and an installation torque range of 45-50 lbf ft (61-68 Nm). Weighing just .80 lb (0.35 kg), it integrates seamlessly into various setups without adding significant weight. The seal kit for this cartridge uses Viton components, ensuring durability and compatibility with a wide range of hydraulic fluids.
