The Sun Hydraulics DCEAXBN (DCEAXBN) is a versatile three-position, 4-way directional cartridge valve, ideal for various hydraulic applications requiring controlled motion. This spring-centered valve features six ports, including the supply port (port 1) and x and y pilot ports (port 5 and port 6), each capable of handling pressures up to 5000 psi (350 bar). Users can select from 10 different spool options, allowing customization based on specific flow requirements, with capacities ranging from 25 to 100 gpm (95 to 380 L/min). The DCEAXBN incorporates Sun Hydraulics' floating style construction. This design minimizes the risk of internal parts binding which could be caused by excessive installation torque or variations in cavity/cartridge machining, ensuring reliable operation and longevity of the valve. The hardened spool and sleeve enhance durability by providing consistent low leakage rates and excellent wear characteristics. Technical specifications include a minimum pilot pressure requirement of 125 psi (9 bar) for valve shifting and a maximum operating pressure limit of 5000 psi (350 bar). The valve exhibits a maximum leakage rate at 110 SUS (24 cSt) of 2 in\u00b3/min at 1000 psi (30 cc/min at 70 bar). The pilot volume displacement is measured at .17 in\u00b2 (8 cc), with the valve itself featuring a hex size of 1-1/4 inches (31.8 mm) and requiring an installation torque between 150 -160 lbf ft (203 -217 Nm). Weighing in at approximately 1.80 lbs (0.80 kg), this model is designed for robust performance in demanding environments. A Viton seal kit for this cartridge is also available under part number: 990063006.
