The Sun Hydraulics FTEALCN (FTEALCN) is a 2-way, 2-position proportional throttle valve designed for precision flow control in hydraulic systems. This model features a pilot pressure at port 1 that opposes the spring, creating a variable metering orifice between ports 2 and 3, which is proportional to the pressure at port 1. The valve's dual path design allows for partial self-compensation as load pressures change, with ports 2 and 3 incorporating a double port area for enhanced performance. It can be pressure compensated using an external modulating logic element such as LRCXHN for bypass circuits or LPCXHN for restrictive circuits, offering improved accuracy across various flows and pressures. The FTEALCN valve provides a maximum capacity of 25 gpm (95 L/min) and supports operating pressures up to 5000 psi (350 bar). It requires a minimum pilot pressure of 80 psi (5.5 bar) to shift the valve, with full shift at rated flow achieved at 350 psi (24 bar). The valve's design includes Sun's floating style construction to minimize internal part binding due to excessive installation torque or machining variations. For additional control, an optional \"L\" stroke adjustment limits maximum flow. Installation specifics include a T-53A cavity and series 3 compatibility, with the valve weighing in at approximately 4.40 lbs (2 kg). The standard seal kit uses Viton material for reliable operation under various conditions. This model also features low hysteresis of \u00b12% and precise adjustment capabilities with up to five counterclockwise turns from fully closed to fully open positions.

This valve is a 2-way, 2 position, proportional throttle. Pilot pressure at port 1 opposes the spring and creates a variable 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.

The valve uses a dual path design. Ports 2 and 3 incorporate a double port area.

  • 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.
  • The optional L control is a stroke adjustment that limits maximum flow.
  • Ports 1 and 4 should be limited to 500 psi (35 bar).
  • Pressure at port 4 directly opposes pressure at port 1.
  • 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.
