Assembly Build Process

Sun's Assembly Build Process allows you to configure a cartridge and manifold, or main stage and pilot stage cartridge, and build a digital assembly in three dimensional space. The resulting output of this process is the assembly product page, including configuration-specific images, symbols, product information and CAD files for download.

The Assembly Build Process can be accessed from either a cartridge or manifold product page. Only valid choices are allowed.

From a manifold page, you must first choose your cartridge function. Once you choose your function, click on the BUILD ASSEMBLY button below the WHERE TO BUY BUTTON. Once clicked, you will be presented with valid cartridges for your manifold. Select the cartridge of your choice and follow the instructions at the top of the page. If your particular combination has been generated before, the resulting assembly page will be available immediately. If not, you will be asked to enter your email address. Once the page is complete, an email will be sent to you including a link to the assembly product page.

From a cartridge product page, click on BUILD ASSEMBLY and you will be presented with a listing of compatible manifolds. In the case of main stage and pilot stage cartridges, you can either build a cartridge to cartridge assembly or a cartridge to manifold assembly. Once your choice has been made, follow the instructions at the top of the page. If your particular combination has been generated before, the resulting assembly page will be available immediately. If not, you will be asked to enter your email address. Once the page is complete, an email will be sent to you including a link to the assembly product page.

Please note that the Assembly Build Process is an automated process. It can be utilized at any time. Pages are generated typically within minutes but delays can occasionally be expected. In the event of a delay, a team at Sun will work to resolve the issue to ensure you receive your information as quickly as possible.

Technical Features [ + ]

This valve is a, 3-way directional cartridge (1 blocked, 2 to 3 open) that incorporates an integral pilot control cavity. It may be used by itself or to actuate larger pilot-operated directional cartridges or logic elements. The valve shifts when there is flow through the pilot control cartridge installed in the T-8A cavity.

NOTE: The main stage valve should first be installed to the correct torque value followed by the T-8A pilot control section into the main stage valve to its required torque value.
This valve is not bistable; it is capable of modulating between the two positions shown.
The flow path between port 1 and port 2 is bidirectional.
Pressure at port 3 may oppose the opening of the valve. Because of this, port 3 may not be useable as a work port in your circuit. If this is a consideration, the 4 port version of this valve may be a solution.
There must be a pressure source at port 1, relative to port 3, to shift the valve.
The -8 control option allows the pilot control valve to be incorporated directly into the end of the directional cartridge via the T-8A cavity. These pilot control cartridges are sold separately and include solenoid operation, air pilot operation, and hydraulic pilot operation. See Pilot Control Cartridges.
Leakage listed in technical data is for each path.
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.

FAQs [ + ]

Direct acting or pilot operated - what do I use?

Direct-acting valves are used to prevent over pressure, and pilot-operated valves are used to regulate pressure. If you are unsure, use a direct-acting valve. Sun's direct acting valves are very fast, dirt tolerant, stable, and robust. Sun's pilot-operated valves are moderately fast, they have a low pressure rise vs. flow curve, and they are easy to adjust.

How big is a drop of hydraulic oil?

There are exactly 250 Sun drops in a cubic inch or 15 in a cc.

What parts of the Sun cartridge valve are field serviceable?

Only external seals are serviceable. Sun offers replacement seal kits for all cartridge models. The applicable kit part number can be found in the product page's Technical Data table or by using our Cartridge Seal Kit search function located under Accessories. Please note: Converting the external seals from one material to another does not ensure fluid compatibility with that material due to the existence of internal seals within the cartridge.
