The Sun Hydraulics CSAXAXV (CSAXAXV) is a high-performance shuttle valve designed for hydraulic applications requiring reliable pressure signal management between two ports. Engineered with a single ball shuttle mechanism, this valve effectively connects the higher of two work ports to a common or signal port, with port 3 being utilized for signal sensing. The incorporation of hardened steel balls and seats enhances the valve's wear characteristics and provides robust contamination tolerance, ensuring long-term operational reliability even under challenging conditions. With a maximum operating pressure of 5000 psi (350 bar) and a flow capacity of 1.25 gpm (4.7 L/min), the CSAXAXV is well-suited for various hydraulic systems where precision and durability are critical. The valve's design minimizes leakage, maintaining efficiency with a maximum valve leakage rate of only 5 drops/min at 110 SUS (24 cSt). This model also features Sun's floating style construction which prevents internal parts from binding due to excessive installation torque or variations in cavity/cartridge machining, further enhancing its performance stability. The CSAXAXV is housed in a T163A cavity and can be installed using standard tools with an installation torque range of 20 - 25 lbf ft (27 - 33 Nm). Its compact form factor, with a hex size of 3/4 in. (19.1 mm) and weight of just .20 lb (0.10 kg), makes it easy to integrate into existing systems without significant modifications. Additionally, it utilizes Viton seals (990163006) for enhanced chemical resistance and temperature tolerance, ensuring reliable operation across various environmental conditions.
