The Sun Hydraulics DCECXXN (DCECXXN) is a high-performance directional control valve characterized by its robust three-position, 4-way configuration. This spring-centered, pilot-to-shift valve features six ports, including X and Y pilot ports (port 5 and port 6), all capable of withstanding pressures up to 5000 psi or 350 bar. The diverse spool options available allow customization according to specific flow force requirements which vary depending on the spool type chosen. These variations influence the valve's shifting ability under different flow and pressure conditions. Key specifications include a flow capacity ranging from 25 to 100 gpm (95 to 380 L/min), making it suitable for a wide range of hydraulic applications. The minimum pilot pressure required to shift the valve is set at 125 psi (9 bar), ensuring reliable operation under varied conditions. Additionally, the maximum operating pressure that this model can handle is consistent with its port capacity at 5000 psi (350 bar). The DCECXXN features hardened spool and sleeve components that ensure low leakage rates and excellent wear characteristics, crucial for maintaining efficiency and prolonging the valve's life in demanding environments. The design incorporates Sun's unique floating style construction which minimizes internal part binding\u2014a common issue resulting from excessive installation torque or machining variations in cavity-cartridge systems. For systems using phosphate ester fluids, cartridges equipped with EPDM seals are recommended due to their compatibility; exposure to petroleum-based fluids should be avoided as it can damage these seals. Each cartridge\u2019s leakage specification and other detailed technical data are meticulously provided to assist in selecting the appropriate configuration for specific applications.

Three-position, 4-way directional cartridges are spring-centered, 6-port directional valves that can be configured from a choice of 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.
