The Sun Hydraulics DPCAKDV (DPCAKDV) is a normally open, pilot-operated, 2-way directional cartridge valve designed for moderate flow circuits. This versatile component can function independently or be used 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 exceeds its set threshold. Notably, pressure at port 3 directly influences the valve setting, potentially limiting its use as a work port unless a 4-port version is considered. Both direct-acting and pilot-operated variants of these valves are interchangeable, sharing identical cavities and flow paths. Designed with Sun's floating style construction, the DPCAKDV minimizes the risk of internal parts binding due to excessive installation torque or variations in cavity/cartridge machining. The valve's maximum operating pressure reaches up to 5000 psi (350 bar), with a capacity of handling up to 15 gpm (60 L/min). It incorporates a control pilot flow ranging from 10 to 15 in\u00b3/min (0.16 to 0.25 L/min) and limits maximum valve leakage at 110 SUS (24 cSt) to just 1 in\u00b3/min at 1000 psi (15 cc/min at 70 bar). Adjustments can be made by turning the adjustment screw clockwise up to five full turns, allowing for fine-tuning of the setting. The hex size for installation is specified at 1-1/8 inches (28.6 mm), requiring an installation torque between 45 and 50 lbf ft (61 and 68 Nm). Additionally, it features an internal hex size adjustment screw of 5/32 inches (4 mm) and a locknut hex size of 9/16 inches (15 mm), with locknut torque specified between 80 and 90 lbf in (9 and 10 Nm). The model weighs approximately .60 lb (.30 kg) and utilizes Viton seals for reliable performance 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.
