The Sun Hydraulics RBAAFCV (RBAAFCV) is a direct-acting pilot relief cartridge valve designed for remote pressure control in hydraulic systems. This valve is ideal for applications requiring load holding and can be used in conjunction with higher flow valves due to its capacity being limited to pilot flow. It features a main stage orifice protected by a 150-micron stainless steel screen, ensuring durability and reliability in various environments. The valve's configuration allows for the use of EPDM seals, making it suitable for systems utilizing phosphate ester fluids; however, exposure to petroleum-based fluids should be avoided as it could damage the seals. With corrosion-resistant options available, the RBAAFCV is adaptable for use in corrosive environments. These options include external stainless steel components or zinc-nickel plating, identified by suffixes AP or LH in the model code. The valve incorporates Sun's floating style construction to minimize internal binding due to installation torque or machining variations. Key specifications include a cavity size of T-3A, a series 2 capacity of 0.5 gpm (2 L/min), and a maximum operating pressure of 5000 psi (350 bar). The typical response time is approximately 2 milliseconds with minimal leakage at standard conditions. The adjustment range includes five clockwise turns to increase settings, with specific hex sizes provided for installation and adjustment purposes. This cartridge valve is particularly suited for applications where rapid response and stability are critical, such as preventing overpressure scenarios. It's also noted for being dirt tolerant and robust, making it an excellent choice for demanding hydraulic applications that require reliable pressure control solutions.

Description

Direct-acting, pilot relief cartridges are used to remotely control the pressure setting of other pilot-operated valves. Because capacity is limited to pilot flow, these valves should be used with other higher flow valves.

Main stage orifice is protected by a 150 micron stainless steel screen.
Suitable for use in load holding applications.
Back pressure on the tank port (port 2) is directly additive to the valve setting at a 1:1 ratio.
Cartridges configured with EPDM seals are for use in systems with phosphate ester fluids. Exposure to petroleum based fluids, greases and lubricants will damage the seals.
W and Y controls (where applicable) can be specified with or without a special setting. When no special setting is specified, the valve is adjustable throughout its full range using the W or Y control. When a special setting is specified, this setting represents the maximum setting of the valve.
Corrosion resistant cartridge valves are intended for use in corrosive environments and are identified by the model code suffix /AP for external stainless steel components, or /LH for external zinc-nickel plated components. See the CONFIGURATION section for all options. For further details, please see the Materials of Construction page located under TECH RESOURCES.
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.

For Series 2 cartridges configured with an O control (panel mount handknob), a 1.00 in. (25,4 mm) diameter hole is required in the panel.

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.
Where would I use a kick-down relief?	One graphic example is on a portable grain auger for silos. When the farmer gets caught in the auger the kick-down relief trips and allows him to escape.
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.
How big is a drop of hydraulic oil?	There are exactly 250 Sun drops in a cubic inch or 15 in a cc.
Can I use a kick-down relief for my system relief?	Maybe not. We build in a good amount of overlap in the kick-down reliefs to prevent false tripping. This means they are not as fast as our standard pilot-operated reliefs. A direct-acting relief valve set just above the kick-down relief valve would be good insurance.
