The Sun Hydraulics SXCAKDN (SXCAKDN) is a direct-acting sequence valve designed to supply a secondary circuit with flow once the pressure at the inlet port has exceeded the valve setting. This valve effectively controls the pressure at port 1 relative to the pressure at the drain port 3, ensuring reliable operation in load-holding applications. It features a zero pilot flow design but requires port 3 to be connected to maintain a pressure reference in the control chamber, as blocking it could lead to malfunction. The valve setting is directly influenced by the pressure at port 3, which should not exceed 5000 psi (350 bar). This model incorporates Sun's floating style construction, minimizing internal part binding due to installation torque or machining variations. Physically and functionally interchangeable with other 3-port sequence cartridges of similar frame size, this valve offers versatility in various applications. It operates with a maximum capacity of 15 gpm (60 L/min) and can handle pressures up to 5000 psi (350 bar). The typical response time is approximately 2 milliseconds, with maximum valve leakage at reseat being limited to 10 drops per minute (0.7 cc/min). Adjustments can be made via an internal hex screw, requiring up to four clockwise turns to increase setting. The SXCAKDN model supports corrosion resistance options for use in harsh environments and is compatible with Viton seal kits for enhanced durability. Its compact design includes specific installation requirements such as a torque range of 30 - 35 lbf ft (41 - 47 Nm) for secure fitting. This product is ideal for systems requiring precise sequencing under varying pressure conditions while ensuring minimal leakage and reliable performance.
