The Sun Hydraulics PPDL8WV (Material Number: PPDL8WV) is a 3-way, normally open modulating valve element with an integral pilot control cavity designed to accommodate any T8A pressure control cartridge. This valve efficiently reduces high primary pressure at inlet port 2 to a stable reduced pressure at port 1, and features a full flow relief function from port 1 to tank port 3. The differential pressure between ports 1 and 3 is determined by the pilot cartridge setting. Notably, the valve remains open during the transition from reducing to relieving, ensuring excellent pressure control and dynamic response, albeit with increased pilot flow in deadheaded conditions. The PPDL8WV is optimized for use with RBAP X, RBAP L, and RBAN electroproportional pilot reliefs. It exhibits very low deadband transition between reducing and relieving modes, providing stable operation with minimal hysteresis. The maximum operating pressure is influenced by the bias spring: the D spring supports up to 2000 psi (140 bar) differential pressure while the W spring accommodates up to 5000 psi (350 bar). The valve's construction minimizes internal binding risks due to excessive torque or machining variations. This model features a Cavity T-11A Series 1 design with a capacity of up to 10 gpm (40 L/min) and supports maximum operating pressures of up to 5000 psi (350 bar). It requires specific installation torque values for both the main stage and pilot control valves. Cartridges configured with EPDM seals are suitable for phosphate ester fluid systems but should avoid petroleum-based fluids. For applications requiring reverse free flow from reduced pressure port 1 to inlet port 2, adding a separate check valve is recommended.

Description

This valve is a 3-way, normally open modulating element that incorporates an integral pilot control cavity. The pilot control cavity will accept any T-8A pressure control cartridge. The valve reduces a high primary pressure at the inlet (port 2) to a constant reduced pressure at port 1, with a full flow relief function from port 1 to tank (port 3). The pilot cartridge's setting determines the difference in pressure between reduced pressure (port 1) and the tank (port 3). This valve is open in the transition from reducing to relieving which provides good pressure control and dynamic response at the expense of higher pilot flow in the deadheaded condition.

Pressure at port 3 is directly additive to the valve setting at a 1:1 ratio and should not exceed 3000 psi (210 bar).
This valve has been optimized to work with the RBAP X**, RBAP L**, and RBAN electro-proportional pilot reliefs.
The transition from reducing to relieving is slightly open. The result is very good pressure control with oil consumption of about 0.1 gpm (0,4 L/min.). The relatively high pilot control flow is only a factor in a dead-headed condition.
Cartridges configured with EPDM seals are for use in systems with phosphate ester fluids. Exposure to petroleum based fluids, greases and lubricants will damage the seals.
Full reverse flow from reduced pressure (port 1) to inlet (port 2) may cause the main spool to close. If reverse free flow is required in the circuit, consider adding a separate check valve to the circuit.
Pilot operated valves exhibit very low dead-band transition between reducing and relieving modes.
Pilot operated valves exhibit exceptionally flat pressure/flow characteristics, are very stable and have low hysteresis.
Maximum inlet pressure is determined by the bias spring. The D spring is tested with 2000 psi (140 bar) maximum differential pressure and the W spring is tested with 5000 psi (350 bar) maximum inlet pressure.
NOTE: With the -8 control option, the main stage valve should first be installed to the correct torque value. The T-8A pilot control valve should then be installed into the main stage valve to its required torque value.
The -8 control option allows the pilot control valve to be incorporated directly into the end of the relief cartridge via the T-8A cavity. These pilot control cartridges are sold separately and include electro-proportional, solenoid, air pilot, and hydraulic pilot operation. See Pilot Control Cartridges.
All three-port pressure reducing and reducing/relieving cartridges are physically interchangeable (i.e. same flow path, same cavity for a given frame size). When considering mounting configurations, it is sometimes recommended that a full capacity return line (port 3) be used with reducing/relieving cartridges.
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.

Show FAQ

Can I back flow through a reducing valve from port 1 to port 2?	Yes. A reducing or reducing/relieving valve is normally open. If the pressure in the secondary circuit is less than the setting, it will be open.2 caveats: (1) If the valve is in the reducing mode and you suddenly reverse the flow, the valve will not have time to open and will shift into relieving mode or (2) If the back flow generates a pressure drop through the valve that exceeds the setting, the valve will shift into the relieving mode.When in doubt, use a reverse flow check.
What are the tolerances on pressure settings for Sun's pressure control valves?	Pressure setting tolerances are listed in our Performance Data page. A link to this page can also be found in the Additional Resources tab of the applicable product page.
I need a reducer on B. Can I connect the drain to A?	Yes. If you look in the sandwich section you will see that we offer many such packages. When you are pressurizing B, A is connected to tank, allowing the reducer to do its job. When you reverse, the drain or tank port of the reducer is pressurized by A. This increases the setting of the reducer and helps keep the reducer open in the reverse flow direction.
What do you mean by maximum differential?	Our reducing valves are outside-in valves; the supply pressure on the outside of the working parts is higher than the inside. At some pressure differential, the outside (sleeve) will close in on the piston and cause the valve to stick. A D range is adjustable from 25 to 800 psi with a maximum differential of 2000 psi. This means you could set the valve at 600 psi and expect it to work correctly with a supply pressure of 2600 psi. The valve may work at higher differentials, but we do not recommend it. The W and C ranges are tested over their entire range with an inlet pressure of 5000 psi. All direct-acting valves are tested with an inlet pressure of 5000 psi.
Will your reducing/relieving valve relieve my pump to tank?	No. A reducing/relieving valve throttles a supply of oil to maintain a set pressure in a secondary circuit. The valve is open until the secondary or downstream pressure rises to the setting of the valve at which time it starts to close to limit the pressure. If the secondary or downstream pressure is caused to go above the setting, the valve shifts into relieving mode and throttles the secondary circuit back to tank to prevent over-pressure. At no time can the valve connect the supply to tank.
How big is a drop of hydraulic oil?	There are exactly 250 Sun drops in a cubic inch or 15 in a cc.
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.
