The Sun Hydraulics PVJCLHN (PVJCLHN) is an externally drained, pilot-operated pressure reducing/relieving valve designed to reduce a high primary pressure at inlet port 2 to a constant reduced pressure at port 1. This valve also features a full-flow relief function from port 1 to tank port 3. By draining the pilot section at port 4, these valves remain insensitive to pressure at tank port 3 and allow for remote control via pilot or two-way valves. The maximum allowable pressure at port 3 is limited to 3000 psi (210 bar). Pilot-operated valves like this exhibit low deadband transitions between reducing and relieving modes and are noted for their exceptionally flat pressure-flow characteristics, stability, and low hysteresis. The recommended maximum inlet pressure is determined by the adjustment range: ranges D, E, N, and Q are tested with a maximum differential of 2000 psi (140 bar), while ranges A, B, and H can handle up to a 3000 psi (210 bar) differential. Ranges C and W accommodate up to 5000 psi (350 bar) of inlet pressure. For optimal performance in dynamic applications requiring faster response times, direct-acting valves are recommended over pilot-operated ones. This valve incorporates Sun's floating style construction to minimize binding due to installation torque or machining variations. It has a capacity of up to 80 gpm (320 L/min) with factory pressure settings established under blocked control conditions. The hex size for installation is 1-5/8 inches (41.3 mm), with an installation torque requirement of between 350-375 lbf ft (474-508 Nm). The adjustment screw has an internal hex size of 5/32 inches (4 mm), while the locknut requires a torque setting of between 80-90 lbf in (9-10 Nm). The model weighs approximately 3.10 lb (1.40 kg) and utilizes Viton seals for cartridge applications.

Description

Externally drained, pilot-operated pressure reducing/relieving valves reduce a high primary pressure at the inlet (port 2) to a constant reduced pressure at port 1, with a full-flow relief function from port 1 to tank (port 3). Draining the pilot section at port 4 makes these valves insensitive to pressure at tank (port 3) and provides a means for remote control by pilot or 2-way valves.

Maximum pressure at port 3 should be limited to 3000 psi (210 bar).
Pilot operated valves exhibit very low dead-band transition between reducing and relieving modes.
Recommended maximum inlet pressure is determined by the adjustment range. Ranges D, E, N, and Q are tested with a 2000 psi (140 bar) maximum differential between inlet and reduced pressure. Ranges A, B, and H are tested with a 3000 psi (210 bar) maximum differential between inlet and reduced pressure. Ranges C and W are tested with 5000 psi (350 bar) of inlet pressure.
Pilot operated valves exhibit exceptionally flat pressure/flow characteristics, are very stable and have low hysteresis.
Pressure on the drain (port 4) is directly additive to the valve setting at a 1:1 ratio and should not exceed 5000 psi (350 bar).
Pilot operated reducing, reducing/relieving valves by nature are not fast acting valves. For superior dynamic response, consider direct acting valves.
By controlling the pressure at the drain (port 4), the effective setting of the valve can be increased over the nominal valve setting.
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.

Show FAQ

Will your reducing/relieving valve relieve my pump to tank?	No. A reducing/relieving valve throttles a supply of oil to maintain a set pressure in a secondary circuit. The valve is open until the secondary or downstream pressure rises to the setting of the valve at which time it starts to close to limit the pressure. If the secondary or downstream pressure is caused to go above the setting, the valve shifts into relieving mode and throttles the secondary circuit back to tank to prevent over-pressure. At no time can the valve connect the supply to tank.
How big is a drop of hydraulic oil?	There are exactly 250 Sun drops in a cubic inch or 15 in a cc.
Direct acting or pilot operated - what do I use?	Direct-acting valves are used to prevent over pressure, and pilot-operated valves are used to regulate pressure. If you are unsure, use a direct-acting valve. Sun's direct acting valves are very fast, dirt tolerant, stable, and robust. Sun's pilot-operated valves are moderately fast, they have a low pressure rise vs. flow curve, and they are easy to adjust.
Can I back flow through a reducing valve from port 1 to port 2?	Yes. A reducing or reducing/relieving valve is normally open. If the pressure in the secondary circuit is less than the setting, it will be open.2 caveats: (1) If the valve is in the reducing mode and you suddenly reverse the flow, the valve will not have time to open and will shift into relieving mode or (2) If the back flow generates a pressure drop through the valve that exceeds the setting, the valve will shift into the relieving mode.When in doubt, use a reverse flow check.
What are the tolerances on pressure settings for Sun's pressure control valves?	Pressure setting tolerances are listed in our Performance Data page. A link to this page can also be found in the Additional Resources tab of the applicable product page.
I need a reducer on B. Can I connect the drain to A?	Yes. If you look in the sandwich section you will see that we offer many such packages. When you are pressurizing B, A is connected to tank, allowing the reducer to do its job. When you reverse, the drain or tank port of the reducer is pressurized by A. This increases the setting of the reducer and helps keep the reducer open in the reverse flow direction.
What do you mean by maximum differential?	Our reducing valves are outside-in valves; the supply pressure on the outside of the working parts is higher than the inside. At some pressure differential, the outside (sleeve) will close in on the piston and cause the valve to stick. A D range is adjustable from 25 to 800 psi with a maximum differential of 2000 psi. This means you could set the valve at 600 psi and expect it to work correctly with a supply pressure of 2600 psi. The valve may work at higher differentials, but we do not recommend it. The W and C ranges are tested over their entire range with an inlet pressure of 5000 psi. All direct-acting valves are tested with an inlet pressure of 5000 psi.
