The Sun Hydraulics DRBDKEN (Material Number: DRBDKEN) is a direct-acting, 3-way directional cartridge valve designed for use in moderate flow circuits. This valve features a configuration that allows flow from port 1 to port 2 while blocking port 3, making it suitable for applications where precise control of hydraulic fluid direction is essential. It operates by shifting when the pressure differential between port 1 and port 3 exceeds a pre-set threshold. The pressure at port 3 directly adds to the valve's setting, which may limit its use as a work port in certain circuits; however, a 4-port version may address this limitation. The DRBDKEN model boasts low internal leakage and minimal pilot flow consumption due to its direct-acting design. This makes it efficient and reliable for operations requiring consistent modulation between two positions rather than bistable switching. Additionally, the valve incorporates Sun's floating style construction to reduce the risk of internal component binding from excessive installation torque or machining variations. Compatible with T-11A cavities, this Series 1 valve has a capacity of up to 7 gpm (28 L/min) and can withstand maximum operating pressures of up to 5000 psi (350 bar). It maintains low leakage rates with maximum valve leakage at only 2 in\u00b3/min (30 cc/min) at standard hydraulic fluid viscosity levels. The adjustment mechanism allows for fine-tuning with up to five clockwise turns needed to increase the setting, facilitated by an internal hex adjustment screw. Weighing just .60 lb (.30 kg), the DRBDKEN is compact yet robust, making it suitable for various hydraulic applications requiring dependable directional control. The Viton seal kit (990-011-006) ensures durability and compatibility with different hydraulic fluids.

Direct-acting, 3-way directional cartridges (1 to 2 open, 3 blocked) 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.
- Because of their direct-acting design, these cartridges feature low internal leakage and low pilot flow consumption.
- 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.
- 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.
