Modulating element from Sun Hydraulics

Description

These normally open modulating elements with an internal orifice between port 1 and port 3 can be used as a main-stage reducing valve. The valve can be controlled remotely using a pilot relief or pilot solenoid valve.

  • Sun offers a variety of pressure and solenoid pilot control valves than can be used as remote control operators. See Pilot Control Cartridges.
  • A tuning adjustment (models configured with an L control) is available to vary the pressure drop across the compensator to increase/decrease flow within +/-25% of setting.
  • All ports will accept 5000 psi (350 bar).
  • 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.
