The Sun Hydraulics DCEAXNV (DCEAXNV) is a high-performance, three-position, 4-way directional cartridge valve that is spring-centered and features six ports for versatile hydraulic flow direction. This valve can be customized with one of 10 different spool options depending on the application's specific needs. Each port, including the x and y pilot ports (port 5 and port 6), can handle up to 5000 psi (350 bar). The valve's capacity varies with the spool type chosen, ranging from 25 to 100 gpm (95 to 380 L/min). Designed for robust operation in demanding environments, the DCEAXNV incorporates a hardened spool and sleeve which significantly reduce leakage rates while ensuring excellent wear characteristics. This durability is further enhanced by Sun\u2019s floating style construction, which minimizes internal parts binding that could otherwise result from excessive installation torque or cavity/cartridge machining variations. Key technical specifications include a minimum pilot pressure requirement of 125 psi (9 bar) for valve shifting, a maximum operating pressure of 5000 psi (350 bar), and maximum valve leakage at 110 SUS (24 cSt) maintained at approximately 2 in\u00b3/min at 1000 psi (30 cc/min at 70 bar). The pilot volume displacement stands at .17 in\u00b2 (8 cc), with the valve itself having an installation torque between 150 -160 lbf\u00b7ft (203 -217 Nm) and weighing about 1.80 lb (0.80 kg). The model uses Viton seals for enhanced performance under varying conditions.
