The Sun Hydraulics RDDTQAN (RDDTQAN) is a direct-acting relief cartridge designed to protect hydraulic components from pressure transients by limiting pressure rise through throttling flow. This normally closed, pressure-limiting valve opens to tank port 2 when the inlet port 1 reaches the set pressure, ensuring smooth and quiet operation with essentially zero leakage. It is dirt tolerant, immune to silting, and features a rapid response time of approximately 2 ms. The valve meets the European Directive for Pressurized Devices PED 97/23/EC as a CE-marked safety valve. With standard adjustment ranges of 100 bar, 140 bar, 160 bar, and 210 bar (with other settings available upon request), it provides versatility for various applications. The RDDTQAN valve is suitable for use in load holding applications and cross port relief circuits due to its ability to accept maximum pressure at port 2. It incorporates Sun's floating style construction, minimizing the risk of internal parts binding from excessive installation torque or cavity/cartridge machining variations. The valve remains relatively insensitive to varying oil temperatures and contamination, enhancing reliability in demanding environments. Each delivery includes a T\u00dcV Approval certifying excess operating pressure and approved flow, an EC Declaration of Conformity, and an instructional manual. The valve supports a maximum capacity of 19.8 gpm (75 L/min) with a reseat leakage rate of up to 10 drops/min (0.7 cc/min). Installation requires specific torque settings for optimal performance: valve installation torque is between 30-35 lbf ft (41-47 Nm), with locknut torque ranging from 80-90 lbf in (9-10 Nm). The RDDTQAN's robust design makes it an ideal choice for applications requiring fast response and stable performance under varying conditions.

Description

Direct-acting relief cartridges are normally closed, pressure-limiting valves used to protect hydraulic components from pressure transients. When the pressure at the inlet (port 1) reaches the valve setting, the valve starts to open to tank (port 2), throttling flow to limit the pressure rise. These valves are smooth and quiet, essentially zero leak, dirt tolerant, immune to silting and are very fast. The CE marked valve is a safety valve that meets the requirements of the European Directive for Pressurized Devices (PED) 97/23/EC. The valve setting represents the excess operating pressure at which the valve opens. Valve capacity can be determined from the performance curve. It shows an approved flow which depends on the excess operating pressure. As a requirement of the PED, the system pressure at the maximum approved flow is a maximum of 10% above the excess operating pressure.

Standard settings for preset valves include:
- A adjustment range: 100 bar, 140 bar, 160 bar and 210 bar
- W adjustment range: 250 bar
- C adjustment range: 330 bar
Other settings are available upon request.
At this time RDDT and RDFT are the only Sun relief valves that are CE marked.
Each delivery contains a TÜV-Approval, which is a certification of the excess operating pressure and the approved flow, an EC Declaration of conformity and an instructional manual.
Pressure settings from 90 bar up to 422 bar are approved and certified by TÜV
Will accept maximum pressure at port 2; suitable for use in cross port relief circuits.
Valve is relatively insensitive to varying oil temperatures and oil borne contamination.
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.
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

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.
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.
