Energy harvester from Sun Hydraulics
Description
This valve is a 2 port cartridge designed to convert hydraulic power from your application into electrical power. The valve accepts flow from Port 1 to Port 2 and outputs a 3-phase AC voltage signal.

- Power cable with mating connector is required (not included).
- The valve exhibits up to 6 drops per hour of internal leakage into the electronics housing. The auxiliary drain port must be gravity fed and therefore remain at atmospheric pressure to prevent submersion of the electronics.
- Valve must be installed in an upright or horizontal orientation. When installed horizontally, the collar should be positioned so that the drain is oriented downward.
- This product can handle a maximum of 200 PSI (14 bar) at port 2 and is designed to harvest energy from fluid destined to return to tank.
- Higher electrical loads and lower Port 2 pressure have a positive effect in reducing leakage.
- In addition to elevated leakage, higher than rated pressures at Port 2 result in a reduction in the power output.
- The electrical output is unregulated. Most applications will require external rectification/regulation.
- Meets new NFPA test standard T2.6.1 R2014 for fatigue and burst pressure ratings.
- Zinc-nickel plating standard for 1000-hour salt fog protection.
- Only 3 pins of the Deutsch DT04-4P Connector are used. The 4th pin is unused. Please see pinout for reference.
- Do not apply installation torque to the anodized aluminum motor housing.
- This valve is CE compliant. It meets the requirements for RF Radiated Emissions (IEC 61000-6-4), Radiated Immunity (IEC 61000-4-3), and Magnetic Field Immunity (IEC 61000-4-8).
- When torquing this cartridge into its cavity, a crow’s foot wrench or similar will be required since the motor housing precludes the use of a deep socket wrench.
