The Sun Hydraulics NCGCKAN (NCGCKAN) is a needle valve with a reverse-flow check designed for precise flow regulation. This valve features an adjustable orifice, allowing it to be set from fully closed to the maximum orifice diameter, providing flexibility in flow control applications. An integral high-capacity check valve ensures unrestricted flow from port 2 to port 1, although it is important to note that this model is not pressure compensated. The NCGCKAN is part of a series where all 2-port flow control cartridges are interchangeable in terms of flow path and cavity size, but extension dimensions may vary. This needle valve operates by regulating flow proportional to the square root of the pressure differential across its ports, thanks to its non-compensating design. Its balanced adjustment mechanism facilitates easy adjustments even under high pressures, while the sharp-edged orifice minimizes variations due to changes in fluid viscosity. The floating style construction helps prevent internal binding caused by excessive installation torque or machining variations. Key specifications include a capacity of 30 gpm (120 L/min) with a maximum operating pressure of 5000 psi (350 bar). The maximum leakage rate at 110 SUS (24 cSt) is limited to 5 drops/minute (0.3 cc/min). It allows for up to 5.5 counterclockwise turns from fully closed to open positions and requires specific torque settings for installation and adjustments: valve installation torque ranges from 350\u2013375 lbf ft (474\u2013508 Nm), and locknut torque ranges from 80\u201390 lbf in (9\u201310 Nm). The model weighs approximately 3.00 lb (1.35 kg), and it uses Viton seals with seal kit number 990018006 available for maintenance needs.

Needle valves with reverse-flow check are fully adjustable orifices used to regulate flow. They are infinitely adjustable from fully closed up to the maximum orifice diameter. An integral high-capacity check valve provides unrestricted flow from port 2 to port 1. They are not pressure compensated.
- All 2-port flow control cartridges are physically and functionally interchangeable (i.e. same flow path, same cavity for a given frame size). However, cartridge extension dimensions from the mounting surface may vary.
- Because needle valves are non-compensating devices, the fixed orifice size will regulate flow through the valve in proportion to the square root of the pressure differential across ports 1 and 2.
- A balanced adjustment mechanism allows for easy adjustment even at high pressures.
- The sharp-edged orifice design minimizes flow variations due to viscosity changes.
- 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.
