The Sun Hydraulics RSFCMCV (RSFCMCV) is a pilot-operated, balanced piston sequence valve designed to manage pressure in hydraulic systems by supplying a secondary circuit with flow once the inlet port 1 pressure surpasses the valve setting. This valve efficiently controls the pressure at port 1 relative to port 3, remaining unaffected by back pressure at port 2 up to its set threshold. It can substitute for 2-port relief valves when return line pressure is present. The RSFCMCV is functionally interchangeable with other 3-port sequence cartridges of similar size, offering consistent flow path and cavity compatibility. It features a main stage orifice protected by a durable 150-micron stainless steel screen and maintains a maximum operating pressure of 5000 psi (350 bar). However, it is not suitable for load-holding applications due to potential spool leakage. This model allows for adjustable settings via W and Y controls, with optional special settings that define the maximum valve setting. When equipped with EPDM seals, it is compatible with phosphate ester fluids but should avoid contact with petroleum-based substances. The design incorporates Sun's floating style construction, reducing risks associated with internal part binding from excessive installation torque or machining variations. The RSFCMCV supports a capacity of up to 30 gpm (120 L/min) and demonstrates efficient response times around 10 ms. Its adjustable settings can be fine-tuned using an internal hex adjustment screw and secured with a locknut requiring specific torque levels. Weighing .50 lb (0.25 kg), this model includes options for Viton seal kits and requires specific installation torques for optimal 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.
- 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.
- 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.
