The Sun Hydraulics SXCALAV (Material Number: SXCALAV) is a direct-acting sequence valve designed to supply a secondary circuit with flow once the inlet port 1 pressure exceeds the valve's set point. This sequence valve is engineered for precise pressure control, maintaining the pressure at port 1 relative to the drain port 3. It features a zero pilot flow design, necessitating connection of port 3 to maintain proper function; blocking this port can lead to malfunction due to seal weepage. The valve setting at port 3 is additive at a 1:1 ratio and should not surpass 5000 psi (350 bar). The SXCALAV model is suitable for load holding applications and can be used in corrosive environments with appropriate external component options like stainless steel or zinc-nickel plating. The construction incorporates Sun's floating style design to prevent internal binding from installation torque or machining variations. The valve fits into cavity T-11A, Series 1, and has a capacity of up to 15 gpm (60 L/min). Its factory pressure settings are established at a flow rate of 2 in\u00b3/min (30 cc/min), with a maximum operating pressure of 5000 psi (350 bar). Typical response time is approximately 2 ms, and maximum leakage at reseat is limited to 10 drops/min (0.7 cc/min). Adjustment requires up to four clockwise turns, with specific torques for installation and locknut adjustments. The model weighs .30 lb (.15 kg) and uses Viton seal kit number 990011006. This sequence valve is ideal for systems requiring reliable sequencing functions with minimal leakage and quick response times.

Direct-acting 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).
- All 3 port sequence cartridges are physically and functionally interchangeable (i.e. same flow path, same cavity for a given frame size).
- Although this is a zero pilot flow valve, port 3 (drain) must be connected to maintain a pressure reference in the control chamber. If port 3 is blocked, reciprocating seal weepage will cause the valve to malfunction.
- Pressure at port 3 is directly additive to the valve setting at a 1:1 ratio and should not exceed 5000 psi (350 bar).
- Suitable for use in load holding applications.
- 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.
