The Sun Hydraulics DCDFXAN (DCDFXAN) is a two-position, 4-way directional cartridge valve, designed with a spring-offset configuration and capable of accommodating up to 5000 psi (350 bar). This robust valve offers flexibility through nine different spool options, allowing it to be tailored to specific operational requirements. Each spool type influences the valve\u2019s capacity by varying the flow forces, which are dependent on both flow rate and pressure drop. These forces play a crucial role in the valve's performance, particularly in configurations where spools open passages as they spring center. The DCDFXAN features hardened spool and sleeve components that ensure low leakage rates and superior wear characteristics. It incorporates Sun's floating style construction which helps prevent internal parts from binding due to excessive installation torque or discrepancies in cavity-cartridge machining. This model is particularly suitable for systems using phosphate ester fluids when configured with EPDM seals; however, these seals must not be exposed to petroleum-based fluids as they can cause damage. The valve supports a flow capacity ranging from 11 to 30 gpm (38 to 120 L/min) and requires a minimum pilot pressure of 150 psi (10.5 bar) for shifting. Leakage performance is optimized at 2 in\u00b3/min at 1000 psi (30 cc/min at 70 bar). The DCDFXAN is designed for easy installation with a specified hex size of 1-1/8 inches (28.6 mm) and an installation torque between 45-50 lbf-ft (61-68 Nm). Weighing only 0.80 lbs (0.35 kg), this model combines efficiency with durability, making it an excellent choice for varied hydraulic applications needing reliable directional control.

Two-position, 4-way directional cartridges are spring-offset, 6-port directional valves that can be configured from a choice of 9 different spool options. The supply port is port 3 and all ports will accept 5000 psi (350 bar). Capacity for these pilot-to-shift valves is dependent on the spool type specified.

  • All ports will accept 5000 psi (350 bar), including the x and y pilot ports (port 5 and port 6).
  • The reason for the different capacities, or performance limits, for the different spool configurations are flow forces. Flow forces are proportional to flow and pressure drop. Typically, they resist the opening of a passage. Spool configurations that open passages as they spring center are the most susceptible. If the flow forces due to the flow and pressure conditions exceed the centering spring force the valve may not shift completely. Higher flows may be used at lower pressures.
  • Leakage listed in technical data is for each path.
  • The pilot ports, 5 and 6, are positively sealed from the work ports.
  • Cartridges configured with EPDM seals are for use in systems with phosphate ester fluids. Exposure to petroleum based fluids, greases and lubricants will damage the seals.
  • Hardened spool and sleeve provide consistent and low spool leakage rates and excellent wear characteristics.
  • Incorporates the Sun floating style construction to minimize the possibility of internal parts binding due to excessive installation torque and/or cavity/cartridge machining variations.
