The Sun Hydraulics DPBALCN (DPBALCN) is a normally open, pilot-operated, 2-way directional cartridge valve designed for moderate flow circuits. This versatile component can function independently or in conjunction with larger pilot-operated directional or logic cartridges. The valve operates by shifting when the pressure differential between port 1 and port 3 surpasses a specified setting, with pressure at port 3 directly affecting this setting. However, port 3 may not be suitable as a work port due to its influence on the valve setting; in such cases, a 4-port version might be more appropriate. Both direct-acting and pilot-operated versions of these valves are interchangeable, sharing the same cavities and flow paths. The DPBALCN model features a maximum operating pressure of 5000 psi (350 bar) and a capacity of 7 gpm (28 L/min). It incorporates Sun's floating style construction to reduce internal part binding risks caused by excessive installation torque or machining variations. The maximum allowable pressure at port 3 is limited to 3000 psi (210 bar) due to fatigue strength limits rather than hydraulic operating constraints. The valve's control pilot flow ranges from 7 to 10 in\u00b3/min (0.11 to 0.16 L/min), with maximum leakage at standard viscosity being just 1 in\u00b3/min at 1000 psi (15 cc/min at 70 bar). Adjustments can be made via an internal hex screw, requiring up to five full clockwise turns for increased settings. Installation requires specific torques: the valve itself needs between 30-35 lbf\u00b7ft (41-47 Nm), while the locknut demands between 80-90 lbf\u00b7in (9-10 Nm). This model weighs approximately .60 lb (0.30 kg) and uses Viton seals for reliability under various conditions.

Normally open, pilot-operated, 2-way directional cartridges are switching devices typically used in moderate flow circuits. They can be used by themselves or to actuate larger pilot-operated directional cartridges or logic cartridges. The valve shifts when the pressure differential between port 1 and port 3 exceeds the setting.

  • Pressure at port 3 is directly additive to the setting of the valve. Because of this, port 3 may not be useable as a work port in your circuit. If this is a consideration, the 4 port version of this valve may be a solution.
  • Direct-acting and pilot-operated versions of these valves are interchangeable. They fit the same cavities and have the same flow paths.
  • This valve is not bistable; it is capable of modulating between the two positions shown.
  • Maximum pressure at port 3 should be limited to 3000 psi (210 bar). This is due to fatigue strength limits not hydraulic operating limits.
  • When pilot pressure exceeds the valve setting, pilot flow may be a consideration. See performance curves for pilot consumption vs. load pressure above the valve setting. If this is a problem, the direct acting version of this valve would be a solution.
  • 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.
