The Sun Hydraulics QCDCCCV (Material Number: QCDCCCV) is an accumulator sense, pump unload pilot valve engineered to optimize hydraulic system efficiency by effectively managing the pressure dynamics between an accumulator and a pump. Designed to sense pressure at port 2, this valve activates its unloading function when the pressure reaches a specific setting, connecting port 3 to port 4 to vent a relief valve and unload the pump. The device is characterized by a 30% ratio between unload and reset settings; when pressure falls below 70% of the set value, it blocks port 3 from port 4, allowing the pump to recharge the accumulator. It features an integral free-flow check valve suitable for pump flows up to 12 gpm (50 L/min). For higher capacity pumps, consider using model QPAC. The QCDCCCV maintains a fixed differential ratio due to its spool design, which ensures consistent performance as wear is minimized over time. The spool's precise fit and pilot piston seal reduce silting potential. A separate drain line is recommended for stable operation, avoiding tank line pressure fluctuations. It's crucial to select an appropriate adjustment range since system pressure drops and flows can impact unloading valve performance; low operating pressures with narrow differentials require precise system design. This cartridge fits into cavity T-21A, has a series capacity of 15 gpm (60 L/min), and operates at a maximum pressure of 5000 psi (350 bar). It features a check cracking pressure of 4 psi (0.3 bar) and requires installation torque between 30 - 35 lbf ft (41 - 47 Nm). The model weighs .35 lb (.15 kg) and uses Viton seal kit number 990021006 for optimal sealing performance.

The accumulator sense, pump unload pilot valve is used to sense pressure in an accumulator at port 2 of the valve and when the pressure at port 2 reaches the valve setting, port 3 connects to port 4 to vent a relief valve and unload the pump. This valve has a 30% ratio between unload setting and reset; when pressure at port 2 falls below 70% of the valve setting, port 3 is blocked from port 4 and the pump will come back online to recharge the accumulator. The integral free-flow check valve is suitable for pump flows up to 12 gpm (50 L/min). For higher capacity pumps, another version of accumulator sense, pump unload cartridge, QPAC, which requires a separate check cartridge is available.
- The pressure differential between unload and reset will be within +/- 1% of the stated ratio of the valve with up to an additional 25 psi (1,7 bar) due to dynamic seal friction.
- The accumulator sensing area is positively sealed.
- The spool design of this valve allows it to maintain a fixed differential ratio because the areas are created by diameters on the spool that will not wear or change with use.
- Minimum clearances between the spool and sleeve and a seal on the pilot piston diameter significantly reduce the potential for silting.
- When applying this cartridge, a separate drain line is required to prevent erratic operation caused by tank line pressure fluctuations.
- NOTE: Careful consideration should be given when selecting an adjustment range. System pressure drops and flows tend to affect the operation of unloading valves. Low operating pressures combined with low differentials result in a very narrow band between unload and reset, requiring precise system design. High flow rates typically mean high pressure drops, which subtract from the differential the valve has to work with.
- Sun has designed a variety of standard accumulator/pump unload assemblies with a variety of features. These assemblies can be found on our website under SOLUTIONS: ACCUMLATOR SENSE, PUMP UNLOAD.
- 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.
