The Sun Hydraulics DRCCLAV (DRCCLAV) is a direct-acting, 3-way directional cartridge valve designed for moderate flow circuits. This valve functions by blocking one port while allowing flow between the other two, making it suitable for applications where switching devices are essential. It can be used independently or to actuate larger pilot-operated or logic cartridges. The valve operates by shifting when the pressure differential between port 1 and port 3 surpasses the set threshold, with pressure at port 3 directly affecting this setting. Due to this characteristic, port 3 may not be feasible as a work port in certain circuits; users might consider a 4-port variant if this poses an issue. Notable features include low internal leakage and minimal pilot flow consumption due to its direct-acting design. The DRCCLAV is not bistable and can modulate between two positions, enhancing its versatility in various hydraulic applications. It incorporates Sun's floating style construction to reduce the risk of internal binding caused by excessive torque or machining variations. The cartridge fits into a T2A cavity and belongs to Series 2, with a capacity of up to 15 gpm (60 L/min). It can withstand a maximum operating pressure of 5000 psi (350 bar) and exhibits maximum leakage of only 2 in/min (30 cc/min) at specified conditions. Installation requires specific torque settings for both the valve and locknut, ensuring secure placement without compromising performance. Adjustments are made through an internal hex screw, allowing fine-tuning with precision. The DRCCLAV is compact, weighing just .60 lb (.30 kg), and comes with a polyurethane seal kit for reliable sealing performance.

Direct-acting, 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.
- 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.
