The Sun Hydraulics DPCMLEV (Material Number: DPCMLEV) 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 or logic cartridges. The valve shifts when the pressure differential between port 1 and port 4 exceeds its set value, although port 4 can be blocked to prevent this shift. Port 3 serves as a work port, with a maximum pressure limit of 3000 psi (210 bar) due to fatigue strength constraints. Notably, this valve is not bistable and has the ability to modulate between two positions. The DPCMLEV features Sun's floating style construction, which minimizes internal part binding from excessive installation torque or machining variations. It fits into cavity T-22A and belongs to Series 2 with a capacity of 15 gpm (60 L/min). The factory pressure settings are established at a flow rate of 4 gpm (15 L/min), with a maximum operating pressure of up to 5000 psi (350 bar). Control pilot flow ranges from 10 to 15 in\u00b3/min (0.16 to 0.25 L/min), while maximum valve leakage at viscosity levels of 110 SUS (24 cSt) is limited to 1 in\u00b3/min per 1000 psi (15 cc/min per 70 bar). Adjustments for increasing the setting require approximately five clockwise turns, and the valve's installation torque ranges from 45 to 50 lbf\u00b7ft (61 to 68 Nm). The adjustment screw has an internal hex size of ^5\u204432 inches (4 mm), while the locknut hex size is ^9\u204416 inches (15 mm) with a locknut torque between 80 and 90 lbf\u00b7in (9 to 10 Nm). The model weighs approximately .60 lb (.30 kg) and includes a Viton seal kit option for enhanced durability in various 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 4 exceeds the setting.
- Port 4 can be blocked to prevent the valve from shifting.
- Port 3 can be used as a work port.
- Direct-acting and pilot-operated versions of these valves are interchangeable. They fit the same cavities and have the same flow paths.
- Pressure at port 4 is directly additive to the setting of the valve.
- 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.
