The Sun Hydraulics FTFAXCN (FTFAXCN) is a precision-engineered 2-way, 2-position proportional throttle valve designed to offer reliable flow control in hydraulic systems. This valve features ports 2 and 3 that are normally closed, with pilot pressure at port 1 opposing the spring to create a variable metering orifice between ports 2 and 3. This functionality allows for partial self-compensation as load pressure changes, enhancing accuracy in flow control applications. Additionally, pressure at port 4 directly opposes pressure at port 1, contributing to the valve's stability and performance. The FTFAXCN model utilizes a dual path design with double port areas for ports 2 and 3, offering enhanced flow capabilities. It can handle a maximum capacity of up to 50 gpm (200 L/min) and operates efficiently under pressures up to 5000 psi (350 bar). The valve's construction incorporates Sun's floating style design, minimizing the risk of internal part binding due to installation torque or machining variations. For applications requiring precise flow regulation, this valve can be paired with external modulating logic elements like LRCXHN for bypass circuits or LPCXHN for restrictive circuits. The optional 'L' control feature provides stroke adjustment to limit maximum flow, further enhancing its versatility in various hydraulic systems. The FTFAXCN requires a minimum pilot pressure of 60 psi (4 bar) to shift and achieves full shift at rated flow with a pilot pressure of 300 psi (20 bar). With its robust design and versatile application potential, this valve is suitable for systems demanding high-precision flow control across diverse operating conditions.

This valve is a 2-way, 2 position, proportional throttle. Ports 2 and 3 are normally closed. 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.
