The Sun Hydraulics FRCAKAV (FRCAKAV) is a bypass restrictive, fixed orifice, priority flow control valve designed to manage hydraulic flow efficiently. This component takes an input flow at port 1 and prioritizes the flow at port 3. If the input exceeds the priority requirement, the excess is bypassed through port 2 for use in secondary circuits. Users must specify a flow rating, with factory-set ratings being within 10% of the requested setting. Both priority and bypass flows can operate up to system pressure levels, maintaining consistent priority regardless of input fluctuations. Bypass flow becomes available only after meeting priority requirements, and pressure at port 2 may exceed that at port 3. The valve features a sharp-edged orifice design to minimize flow variation due to viscosity changes and includes an adjustable control option allowing up to a 25% variation from the nominal preset flow. Adjustments are made using three turns of an internal hex screw, increasing flow when turned clockwise. The Sun floating style construction reduces potential internal binding from excessive installation torque or machining variations. Key specifications include a T-11A cavity size, series 1 classification, and capacity of up to 6 gpm (23 L/min). It can handle maximum operating pressures of 5000 psi (350 bar) and input flows up to 15 gpm (60 L/min). Installation requires a valve hex size of 7/8 inch (22.2 mm) with torque between 30-35 lbf ft (41-47 Nm). The adjustment screw has an internal hex size of 5/32 inch (4 mm), while the locknut measures at a hex size of 9/16 inch (15 mm) with torque requirements of 80-90 lbf in (9-10 Nm). The model weighs .30 lb (.15 kg) and uses Viton seal kits for enhanced durability.

Bypass/restrictive, fixed-orifice, priority flow controls take an input flow at port 1 and use it to satisfy the priority flow at port 3. If the input flow exceeds the priority flow requirement, the excess is bypassed out port 2. The bypass flow may be used in a secondary circuit.
- Customer must specify a flow rating. Factory set flow ratings are within +/- 10% of the requested setting.
- Both priority and bypass flow are usable up to the system operating pressure.
- Priority remains relatively constant regardless of variation in input flow.
- Bypass flow is not available until priority flow requirements are satisfied.
- Pressure at the bypass port (port 2) may exceed pressure at the priority port (port 3).
- The sharp-edged orifice design minimizes flow variations due to viscosity changes.
- A tuneable adjustment control option provides up to +/- 25% variation from the nominal factory pre-set flow. Adjustment is done with +/- 3 turns of the adjust screw. Screw in (CW) to increase flow.
- 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.
