The Sun Hydraulics X5HDLANXA (X5HDLANXA) is a versatile hydraulic assembly designed to deliver precise flow regulation in applications with significant pressure fluctuations. This unit features a fully adjustable, pressure-compensated flow control with a reverse flow check, allowing for accurate meter-in or meter-out operations. The assembly is infinitely adjustable from nearly closed to the maximum flow capacity of 60 gpm (240 L/min). An integral high-capacity check valve ensures unrestricted reverse flow, and the rapid or feed rate can be selected via a solenoid-operated, normally open or closed 2-way, 2-position valve. The sharp-edged orifice design minimizes variations in flow due to changes in fluid viscosity, while the balanced adjustment mechanism facilitates easy adjustments even under high-pressure conditions. This product is configured as a sandwich body type with an ISO 08 interface and features a stack height of 3.94 inches (100 mm). The device is intended for meter-out A applications and does not include an anodized finish on its aluminum body, as Sun Hydraulics prioritizes material integrity over anodization benefits like corrosion resistance or appearance. This assembly is suitable for systems operating at pressures up to 3000 psi (210 bar) when utilizing aluminum manifolds. The selection between direct-acting and pilot-operated valves can be made based on the application's pressure regulation needs, with direct-acting valves offering fast response and robust performance.

Description

This assembly consists of a fully-adjustable, pressure-compensated flow control with reverse-flow check which provides precise flow regulation for meter-in or meter-out applications where there may be wide pressure fluctuations. It is infinitely adjustable from nearly closed up to the maximum flow. An integral high-capacity check valve provides unrestricted flow in the reverse direction. 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.
A balanced adjustment mechanism allows for easy adjustment even at high pressures.

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:

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.
