The Sun Hydraulics DPCAKAN (DPCAKAN) is a normally open, pilot-operated, 2-way directional cartridge valve designed for moderate flow circuits. This versatile valve can be used independently or to actuate larger pilot-operated directional cartridges or logic cartridges. The valve operates by shifting when the pressure differential between port 1 and port 3 surpasses the preset value, with pressure at port 3 being additive to the valve's setting. It is important to note that if port 3 is intended for use as a work port, the 4-port version may be more suitable due to this characteristic. The DPCAKAN model features interchangeable direct-acting and pilot-operated versions that fit identical cavities and maintain consistent flow paths. This model incorporates Sun's floating style construction, which minimizes internal part binding risks due to excessive installation torque or cavity/cartridge machining variations. With a maximum operating pressure of 5000 psi (350 bar) and a capacity of 15 gpm (60 L/min), this valve is robust yet efficient. The factory pressure settings are established at 4 gpm (15 L/min), with control pilot flow ranging from 10-15 in\u00b3/min (0.16-0.25 L/min). Additionally, maximum leakage at 110 SUS (24 cSt) is limited to 1 in\u00b3/min at 1000 psi (15 cc/min at 70 bar). The DPCAKAN model is equipped with an adjustment feature allowing up to five complete clockwise turns to increase the setting, while maintaining precise control through its internal hex size adjustment screw and locknut torque specifications. With its lightweight design of just .60 lb (.30 kg) and Viton seal kit availability, this cartridge valve offers reliability and adaptability across various hydraulic applications.

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.
