The Sun Hydraulics RSDCKCN (RSDCKCN) is a pilot-operated, balanced piston sequence valve designed to supply a secondary circuit with flow once the inlet pressure at port 1 exceeds the valve setting. This valve is ideal for controlling pressure at port 1 relative to the drain port 3, remaining insensitive to back pressure at port 2 up to the valve setting. It can serve as a substitute for two-port relief valves in systems with return line pressure. The three-port sequence cartridges are physically and functionally interchangeable, allowing for consistent flow paths and cavity compatibility within a given frame size. As inlet pressure increases relative to drain pressure beyond the valve setting, pilot flow continues to rise. The main stage orifice is shielded by a durable 150-micron stainless steel screen, ensuring reliable operation. Pressure at port 3 directly adds to the valve setting on a 1:1 ratio but should not surpass 5000 psi (350 bar). Note that this model is unsuitable for load-holding applications due to potential spool leakage. Adjustment options include W and Y controls, which can be specified with or without special settings; without specification, the valve adjusts across its full range using these controls. Corrosion-resistant options are available with external stainless steel components (suffix AP) or zinc-nickel plated components (suffix LH). The Sun floating style construction helps prevent internal part binding from excessive installation torque or machining variations. The RSDCKCN features a cavity size of T-11A Series 1 and supports a capacity of up to 15 gpm (60 L/min). It operates under maximum pressures of 5000 psi (350 bar), with typical response times around 10 ms and maximum leakage rates of approximately 2 in\u00b3/min at 1000 psi. The model's weight is approximately .30 lb (.15 kg), and it includes adjustment features such as an internal hex screw and locknut for secure settings management.

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.
