The Sun Hydraulics NCGCLEV (Material Number: NCGCLEV) is a needle valve with a reverse flow check that serves as a fully adjustable orifice for regulating flow. This valve offers infinite adjustability from fully closed to the maximum orifice diameter, allowing for precise control over hydraulic systems. It features an integral high-capacity check valve that permits unrestricted flow from port 2 to port 1, although it is not pressure compensated. This product's design allows it to be interchangeable with all 2-port flow control cartridges of the same frame size, although extension dimensions may vary. The needle valve regulates flow based on the square root of the pressure differential across its ports due to its non-compensating nature. The Sun Hydraulics NCGCLEV employs a balanced adjustment mechanism, facilitating easy adjustments even under high pressure conditions, and incorporates a sharp-edged orifice design to minimize flow variations due to changes in fluid viscosity. The floating style construction minimizes the risk of internal parts binding from excessive installation torque or machining variations in cavity-cartridge interfaces. This cartridge fits into a T-18A cavity and boasts a series 4 capacity of up to 30 gpm (120 L/min) with a maximum operating pressure of 5000 psi (350 bar). It experiences minimal leakage at defined conditions and can be adjusted through 5.5 counterclockwise turns from fully closed to fully open. The valve has specific installation requirements including a hex size of 1-5/8 inches and requires an installation torque between 350-375 lbf ft (474-508 Nm). Its construction includes Viton seals for durability and reliability in various applications. With these specifications, the NCGCLEV is suitable for applications demanding precise flow control and reliable reverse flow checking capabilities within hydraulic systems.

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.
