The Sun Hydraulics A2A (A2A) is a specialized manifold designed for use with solenoid-operated and electroproportional cartridges. This robust component features additional material around the cavity, allowing for coil clearance and accommodating Sun's weatherized coil with the necessary spotface. It is a line mount body type with no specific interface, and it includes a ninety-degree flow path with a reverse flow check, making it compatible with both standard and weatherized coils. The manifold has a mounting hole diameter of 0.34 inches (8.6 mm) and is designed to accommodate through mounting holes, with a total of 22 mounting holes available. It features 11 open cavities, each compatible with T11A cartridges, and has ports sized at 14 NPTF. Constructed from 6061T651 aluminum, this manifold boasts high corrosion resistance without the need for anodizing, which can compromise fatigue life by initiating cracks under pressure. The choice of aluminum ensures strength while maintaining cost-effectiveness and machinability in various shapes and sizes. This design choice also enhances durability in corrosive environments compared to other alloys like 2024 aluminum. The A2A manifold's capabilities make it ideal for applications requiring reliable hydraulic control in harsh conditions where weatherized components are critical. Its design supports efficient integration into hydraulic systems that demand precise control through solenoid or electroproportional valve operation while ensuring long-term performance without compromising structural integrity due to fatigue or corrosion issues typically associated with anodized surfaces.
