The Sun Hydraulics DPBCLEV (Material Number: DPBCLEV) is a pilot-operated, 3-way directional cartridge valve designed for moderate flow circuits. This device functions as a switching mechanism where one port is blocked, and another allows flow between ports 2 and 3. It can be utilized independently or to actuate larger pilot-operated directional or logic cartridges. The valve shifts when the pressure differential between ports 1 and 3 surpasses the predefined setting, with pressure at port 3 directly adding to this setting. Notably, port 3 may not be suitable as a work port in some circuits; in such cases, a four-port version might be more appropriate. The DPBCLEV is interchangeable with direct-acting versions, sharing cavity fitment and flow paths. This valve features Sun's floating style construction to mitigate internal part binding due to excessive installation torque or machining variations. It offers a capacity of up to 7 gpm (28 L/min) and operates at a maximum pressure of 5000 psi (350 bar). The control pilot flow ranges from 7 to 10 in\u00b3/min (0.11 to 0.16 L/min), with minimal leakage at high viscosity conditions. For installation, the valve requires torque settings between 30-35 lbf ft (41-47 Nm), utilizing hex sizes of 7/8 inch for the valve body and adjustments made via a screw with an internal hex size of 5/32 inch. The locknut requires torque between 80-90 lbf in (9-10 Nm). Weighing approximately .60 lb (0.30 kg), this model incorporates Viton seals for durability under various conditions. The DPBCLEV is not bistable but can modulate between two positions based on pilot pressure exceeding the set value. For applications where pilot flow becomes significant above this setting, considering the direct acting version might be beneficial due to its efficient performance characteristics.

Pilot-operated, 3-way directional cartridges (1 blocked, 2 to 3 open) 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.
  • Port 3 can be blocked to prevent the valve from shifting.
  • This valve is not bistable; it is capable of modulating between the two positions shown.
  • 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.
