The Sun Hydraulics SXEALAV (SXEALAV) is a direct-acting sequence valve designed to provide flow to a secondary circuit once the pressure at inlet port 1 surpasses the valve's preset level. This sequence valve ensures precise control of pressure at port 1 relative to the drain port 3, which must remain connected to maintain a proper pressure reference in the control chamber. The valve's design incorporates Sun's floating style construction, minimizing internal part binding due to excessive installation torque or machining variations. It is suitable for load-holding applications and features physical and functional interchangeability across all three-port sequence cartridges of the same frame size, ensuring compatibility in various setups. The SXEALAV supports a maximum operating pressure of 5000 psi (350 bar) and can handle flow capacities up to 30 gpm (120 L/min). Its factory pressure settings are established at a flow rate of 2 in\u00b3/min (30 cc/min), with a typical response time of just 2 milliseconds, ensuring rapid reaction to changes in system conditions. The valve exhibits minimal leakage with a maximum rate of 10 drops/min (0.7 cc/min) upon reseat. Installation requires specific torque settings: the valve hex size is 1-1/8 inches (28.6 mm), with an installation torque range of 45-50 lbf\u00b7ft (61-68 Nm). The adjustment screw features an internal hex size of 5/32 inches (4 mm), while the locknut has a hex size of 9/16 inches (15 mm) and should be torqued between 80-90 lbf\u00b7in (9-10 Nm). The model weighs approximately .60 lb (.30 kg) and uses Viton seals, with seal kit part number 990202006 available for maintenance needs.
