The Sun Hydraulics RSDCFWN (RSDCFWN) is a pilot-operated, balanced piston sequence valve designed to manage secondary circuit flow once the inlet port 1 pressure surpasses the preset valve threshold. This valve regulates pressure at port 1 relative to the drain port 3 and is unaffected by back pressure at port 2, as long as it remains within the valve setting. It can replace two-port relief valves in systems with return line pressure. All three-port sequence cartridges are interchangeable in terms of flow path and cavity size for their frame size. As inlet pressure at port 1 rises above the set point, pilot flow increases proportionally. The main stage orifice is safeguarded by a 150-micron stainless steel screen, ensuring durability under high-pressure conditions up to 5000 psi (350 bar). However, this model is not recommended for load-holding applications due to potential spool leakage. The RSDCFWN incorporates corrosion-resistant features with optional external stainless steel or zinc-nickel plated components for use in harsh environments. It utilizes Sun's floating style construction to minimize internal binding risks from excessive torque or machining variations. The valve has a capacity of 15 gpm (60 L/min) and operates with a factory pressure setting established at 4 gpm (15 L/min). It supports a control pilot flow rate between 7-10 in\u00b3/min (0.11-0.16 L/min) and has a typical response time of 10 ms. The adjustment mechanism allows for full-range control using W or Y controls unless specified otherwise, with five clockwise turns required to increase settings. Installation requires specific torque settings: valve installation torque at 30-35 lbf ft (41-47 Nm), locknut torque at 80-90 lbf in (9-10 Nm), and uses an internal hex size of ^5/32 in (4 mm). The model weighs approximately .30 lb (.15 kg) and comes with a Viton seal kit option for enhanced sealing performance.

Pilot-operated, balanced piston sequence valves will supply a secondary circuit with flow once the pressure at the inlet (port 1) has exceeded the valve setting. The pressure setting of a sequence valve controls the pressure at port 1 relative to the pressure at the drain (port 3). These valves are insensitive to back pressure at port 2 (sequence), up to the valve setting. They may be used to regulate pressure in place of 2-port relief valves if there is pressure in the return line.
- All 3 port sequence cartridges are physically and functionally interchangeable (i.e. same flow path, same cavity for a given frame size).
- Pilot flow continues to increase as the pressure at port 1 (inlet), relative to the pressure at port 3 (drain), rises above the valve setting.
- The main stage orifice is protected by a 150 micron stainless steel screen.
- Pressure at port 3 is directly additive to the valve setting at a 1:1 ratio and should not exceed 5000 psi (350 bar).
- Not suitable for use in load holding applications due to spool leakage.
- 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.
