The Sun Hydraulics DPCDKAN (DPCDKAN) is a pilot-operated, 3-way directional cartridge valve designed for moderate flow circuits. This versatile valve can be used independently or to actuate larger pilot-operated directional cartridges or logic cartridges. The valve operates by shifting when the pressure differential between port 1 and port 3 exceeds the pre-set threshold. Notably, pressure at port 3 directly adds to the valve's setting, which may limit its use as a work port in certain circuits; in such cases, a four-port version might be more suitable. The DPCDKAN model is interchangeable with direct-acting versions, sharing the same cavities and flow paths. It features Sun's floating style construction to minimize internal part binding due to excessive installation torque or machining variations. This model has a cavity size of T2A and belongs to Series 2, with a capacity of 15 gallons per minute (60 liters per minute). Factory pressure settings are established at 4 gallons per minute (15 liters per minute), with a maximum operating pressure of 5000 psi (350 bar). Control pilot flow ranges from 10 to 15 cubic inches per minute (0.16 to 0.25 liters per minute), and maximum valve leakage is rated at 1 cubic inch per minute at 1000 psi (15 cc/min at 70 bar). The adjustment mechanism allows for up to five clockwise turns to increase the setting, with specific torque requirements for installation and adjustment components detailed in its specifications. In terms of application, this non-bistable valve modulates between two positions and should have maximum pressure at port 3 limited to 3000 psi (210 bar) due to fatigue strength limits rather than hydraulic operating constraints. Moreover, when pilot pressure exceeds the valve setting, pilot flow becomes an important consideration; if problematic, opting for a direct-acting version may resolve issues related to pilot consumption versus load pressure above the setting.

Pilot-operated, 3-way directional cartridges (1 to 2 open, 3 blocked) are switching devices typically used in moderate flow circuits. They can be used by themselves or to actuate larger pilot-operated directional cartridges or logic cartridges. The valve shifts when the pressure differential between port 1 and port 3 exceeds the setting.
- Pressure at port 3 is directly additive to the setting 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.
- Direct-acting and pilot-operated versions of these valves are interchangeable. They fit the same cavities and have the same flow paths.
- Port 3 can be blocked to prevent the valve from shifting.
- This valve is not bistable; it is capable of modulating between the two positions shown.
- Maximum pressure at port 3 should be limited to 3000 psi (210 bar). This is due to fatigue strength limits not hydraulic operating limits.
- When pilot pressure exceeds the valve setting, pilot flow may be a consideration. See performance curves for pilot consumption vs. load pressure above the valve setting. If this is a problem, the direct acting version of this valve would be a solution.
- 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.
