The Sun Hydraulics X4DCXANXA (Material Number: X4DCXANXA) is a sophisticated hydraulic assembly comprising a fixed-orifice, pressure-compensated flow control valve with a reverse flow check. This design ensures precise flow regulation for both meter-in and meter-out applications, even amidst significant pressure fluctuations. The flow setting is user-specified and factory-set, while the transition between rapid and feed rates is controlled by a solenoid-operated, normally open or closed 2-way, 2-position valve. Featuring a sharp-edged orifice design, this assembly minimizes flow variations due to viscosity changes. Additionally, it offers a tunable control option allowing for a 25% variation from the nominal factory preset flow; adjustments can be made by turning clockwise to increase the flow rate. Customers are required to specify their desired flow rating, which will be factory set within 10% of the requested specification. The assembly has a capacity of 30 gpm (120 L/min) and utilizes a sandwich body type with an ISO 05 interface. It allows for meter-in on port A or meter-out on port B configurations and has a stack height of 2.99 inches (76 mm). A seal plate is included in the package as per standard specifications. The product's aluminum construction offers excellent corrosion resistance without anodizing, leveraging the natural properties of 6061-T651 aluminum alloy. This material choice ensures durability while maintaining lightweight characteristics suitable for various hydraulic systems requiring reliable performance under varying conditions.

Description

This assembly consists of a fixed-orifice, pressure-compensated flow control valve with reverse flow check which provides precise flow regulation for meter-in or meter-out applications where there may be wide pressure fluctuations. The flow setting is specified by the user and is set at the factory. The rapid or feed rate is selected by a solenoid operated (normally open or closed) 2-way, 2-position valve.

The sharp-edged orifice design minimizes flow variations due to viscosity changes.
The tuneable control option provides +/- 25% variation from the nominal factory pre-set flow. Turn the adjustment clockwise to increase.
Customer must specify a flow rating. Factory set flow ratings are within +/- 10% of the requested setting.

Show FAQ

Why doesn't Sun anodize their aluminum bodies?	Reasons to anodize: To increase corrosion resistance. Sun uses 6061-T651 aluminum. It is one of the most corrosion resistant aluminum alloys there is. Whether or not anodizing improves the corrosion resistance of 6061 aluminum is debatable. We have yet to have a manifold returned because of corrosion. Appearance (color). The 2 colors that would appeal to Sun would be blue or black. Unfortunately these are the colors that are hardest to do consistently. To provide a hard wear surface. Sun does not make parts-in-body valves. The manifold is just plumbing. We don't need a wear surface. Because everyone else does it. Bad reason. Reasons to not anodize: Cost. It's another process. Logistics. When you make tens of thousands of manifolds a month and you anodize hundreds, it's a problem. Consistency. See above. Stamping. After a body is anodized you cannot do any more stamping without making a mess.Inspection. Have you ever tried to look for burrs in a black anodized body? It's the old blackboard factory at night scenario. Torque. You will experience an increase in breakaway torque when removing items from an anodized manifold. Fatigue life. This is the best reason to not anodize. Fatigue failure is a very complex phenomenon. What it takes to initiate a crack is difficult to predict. What it takes to propagate a crack is readily defined. Anodizing produces a very thin, very hard, and very brittle surface on aluminum. The first time you pressurize an anodized aluminum manifold you have initiated fatigue cracks. Whether or not the stress is enough to propagate the cracks is a matter of pressure and manifold geometry. Anodizing an aluminum manifold grossly reduces the fatigue life by anywhere from 20% to 50%.
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.
Why does Sun use 6061 aluminum?	6061-T651 is relatively strong, relatively inexpensive, difficult to machine, readily available in all shapes and sizes and very corrosion resistant. 2024 is stronger and machines beautifully, but is expensive and falls to pieces in a corrosive environment.

Notes:

Stack height value in technical data table includes seal retainer plate.
Important: Carefully consider the maximum system pressure. The pressure rating of the manifold is dependent on the manifold material, with the port type/size a secondary consideration. Manifolds constructed of aluminum are not rated for pressures higher than 3000 psi (210 bar), regardless of the port type/size specified.
