The Sun Hydraulics FKGALCV (Material Number: FKGALCV) is a 2-way, 2-position proportional throttle valve designed to provide precise flow control in hydraulic systems. Ports 2 and 3 are normally closed, and pilot pressure at port 1 creates a metering orifice between these ports that adjusts proportionally to the pressure at port 1. This design allows for partial self-compensation as load pressure varies. The valve can be pressure compensated using an external modulating logic element, such as LRCXHN for bypass circuits or LPCXHN for restrictive circuits, enhancing flow control accuracy over a broader range of flows and pressures. The FKGALCV valve incorporates Sun's floating style construction, minimizing potential binding of internal parts due to installation torque or machining variations. It operates within a maximum capacity of 30 gpm (120 L/min) and can handle pressures up to 5000 psi (350 bar). The valve features an optional tuning adjustment that allows manual variation of pilot pressure required to control flow, with an adjustment range from 50 to 250 psi (3.5 to 15 bar), and a standard setting at 100 psi (7 bar). This valve is suitable for applications requiring accurate pressure-compensated control by maintaining a constant pressure differential across the valve. Ports 1 and 4 should not exceed pressures of 500 psi (35 bar), with pressures at port 4 directly opposing those at port 1. The FKGALCV also has a low leakage rate of up to four in\u00b3/min at maximum operating conditions and includes specific installation requirements such as torque settings for optimal performance.

This valve is a 2-way, 2 position, proportional throttle. Ports 2 and 3 are normally closed. Pilot pressure at port 1 creates a metering orifice between port 2 and 3 that is proportional to the pressure at 1. The force balance of the flow forces, spring and pilot pressure results in a degree of partial self-compensation as the load pressure changes.
Pressure at port 4 directly opposes pressure at port 1.
- These valves may be pressure compensated by an external, modulating, logic element. Use LR_C-XHN for a bypass circuit or LP_C-XHN for a restrictive circuit.
- The valve provides a degree of self-compensation and may be used as a flow control. To increase the accuracy of flow control, an external, modulating, logic element can be used to maintain a constant flow over a wider range of flows and pressures. See performance curves for additional information.
- Ports 1 and 4 should be limited to 500 psi (35 bar).
- Pressure at port 4 directly opposes pressure at port 1.
- An optional tuning adjustment (L control) is offered to vary the pilot pressure required to control flow. The tuning adjustment provides a means to manually increase or decrease flow at a given pilot pressure. The adjustment range is 50 - 250 psi (3,5 - 15 bar), 100 psi (7 bar) Standard Setting.
- Accurate pressure compensated control requires that a constant pressure differential be maintained across the valve.
- 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.
