The Sun Hydraulics DCEADCN (DCEADCN) is a versatile three-position, 4-way directional cartridge valve designed for high-pressure hydraulic systems. This model is spring-centered and features a 6-port configuration, which includes the supply port as port 1. All ports on this valve, including the x and y pilot ports (port 5 and port 6), are capable of handling pressures up to 5000 psi (350 bar). The DCEADCN offers a flow capacity ranging from 25 to 100 gpm (95 to 380 L/min), depending on the spool type selected. This valve is noted for its robust design with a hardened spool and sleeve that ensure low leakage rates and superior wear characteristics. It also incorporates Sun\u2019s floating style construction, which reduces the risk of internal parts binding due to excessive installation torque or variations in cavity/cartridge machining. This feature enhances the overall reliability and performance of the valve in demanding applications. Key specifications include a minimum pilot pressure requirement of 125 psi (9 bar) for valve shifting, maximum operating pressure of 5000 psi (350 bar), and maximum valve leakage at 110 SUS (24 cSt) being limited to 2 in\u00b3/min at 1000 psi (30 cc/min at 70 bar). The pilot volume displacement stands at .17 in\u00b2 (8 cc), while the valve hex size is specified as 1-1/4 in. (31.8 mm). Installation torque for this model should be between 150 \u2013160 lbf\u00b7ft (203 \u2013217 Nm), with an overall weight of approximately 1.80 lbs (0.80 kg). The recommended seal kit/cartridge for this model uses Viton components under part number: 990063006.
