While efforts have been made to provide accurate details, inaccuracies may occur. It is advised to verify all information by contacting Sun Hydraulics directly.***
The Sun Hydraulics RSDCKAV (RSDCKAV) is a pilot-operated, balanced piston sequence valve designed to supply a secondary circuit with flow once the inlet port pressure exceeds the valve setting. This sequence valve controls the pressure at port 1 relative to the drain port 3 and is insensitive to back pressure at port 2, up to the valve setting. It can replace 2-port relief valves for regulating pressure when there is pressure in the return line. Not suitable for load holding applications due to spool leakage, this valve features interchangeable cartridges across all 3-port sequence models, ensuring consistent flow paths and cavity compatibility within a given frame size. The RSDCKAV incorporates a main stage orifice protected by a 150-micron stainless steel screen and allows pilot flow to increase with rising inlet pressure relative to drain pressure. The valve's maximum operating pressure is 5000 psi (350 bar), with factory settings established at 4 gpm (15 L/min). The control pilot flow ranges from 7-10 in\u00b3/min (0.11-0.16 L/min), and it exhibits a typical response time of 10 milliseconds. For adjustment, users can make up to five clockwise turns to increase the setting, using an internal hex size of 5/32 inches (4 mm) for the adjustment screw. Its installation torque ranges from 30-35 lbf\u00b7ft (41-47 Nm), while the locknut requires a torque of 80-90 lbf\u00b7in (9-10 Nm). With corrosion-resistant options available, including external stainless steel components or zinc-nickel plating, this model suits corrosive environments. The RSDCKAV features Sun's floating style construction, minimizing internal part binding due to excessive torque or machining variations.

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.
