The Sun Hydraulics SXCAKEN (Material Number: SXCAKEN) is a direct-acting sequence valve designed to supply a secondary circuit with flow once the pressure at inlet port 1 surpasses the valve's setting. It controls the pressure at port 1 in relation to the pressure at the drain port 3, with all three-port sequence cartridges being both physically and functionally interchangeable. This zero pilot flow valve requires that port 3 be connected to maintain a pressure reference in the control chamber, as blocking it can lead to valve malfunction due to reciprocating seal weepage. The pressure at port 3 is additive to the valve setting at a 1:1 ratio and should not exceed 5000 psi (350 bar). The SXCAKEN is suitable for load-holding applications and available in corrosion-resistant configurations, identified by model code suffixes AP or LH for external stainless steel or zinc-nickel plated components, respectively. It incorporates Sun's floating style construction, which minimizes internal parts binding due to excessive installation torque or cavity/cartridge machining variations. The SXCAKEN has a cavity size of T-11A, Series 1, with a capacity of 15 gpm (60 L/min) and factory pressure settings established at 2 in\u00b3/min (30 cc/min). It operates under a maximum pressure of 5000 psi (350 bar) with a typical response time of 2 ms. The maximum valve leakage at reseat is limited to ten drops per minute (0.7 cc/min). Adjustment can be made through four clockwise turns to increase settings, with specific torque requirements for installation and adjustment components provided for optimal performance and durability.
