The Sun Hydraulics FSDAXAN (FSDAXAN) is a closed-center flow divider/combiner designed to manage hydraulic flow in applications requiring bidirectional operation. This sliding-spool, pressure-compensated device efficiently splits flow in one direction and combines it in the opposite direction, making it ideal for controlling multiple cylinders or hydraulic motors. Its design allows for physical interchangeability with other cartridges of the same frame size, ensuring compatibility and ease of integration. The FSDAXAN is particularly suited for applications where precise divisional and combining accuracy is essential, boasting an accuracy of 50% \u00b14.5% at minimum input flow and 50% \u00b12.5% at maximum input flow. The valve operates within a capacity range of 3-15 gpm (12-60 L/min) and can withstand a maximum operating pressure of 5000 psi (350 bar). It features a T32A cavity and Series 2 designation, with a valve hex size of 1 1/8 inches (28.6 mm) and requires an installation torque between 45-50 lbf ft (61-68 Nm). While the valve does not provide leak-proof holding capability due to spool leakage, it effectively minimizes cross-flow and drift. In applications involving rigid mechanisms or multiple actuators, users should be mindful of potential cavitation, lockup, or pressure intensification due to operating inaccuracies inherent in the valve design. The FSDAXAN incorporates Sun's floating style construction to reduce the likelihood of internal part binding from excessive installation torque or machining variations. It is important to note that below its minimum flow rating, the valve may not modulate effectively, functioning more like a tee until adequate flow levels are reached for proper operation.

Closed-center flow divider/combiners are sliding-spool, pressure-compensated devices used to split flow in one direction and combine flow in the opposite direction. These valves may be used to accurately control two or more cylinders or hydraulic motors where bidirectional operation is required.
- All flow divider and divider/combiner cartridges are physically interchangeable (i.e. same flow path, same cavity for a given frame size).
- Operating characteristics cause the leg of the circuit with the greatest load to receive the higher percentage of flow in dividing mode. If a rigid mechanism is used to tie actuators together, the lead actuator may pull the lagging actuator and cause it to cavitate.
- In combining mode, compensating characteristics will cause the leg of the circuit with the lowest load to receive the higher percentage of flow. If a synchronization feature is not included, an additive accuracy error will be experienced with each full stroke of the actuator.
- In applications involving rigid mechanisms between multiple actuators, operating inaccuracy will cause the eventual lock-up of the system. If the mechanical structure is not designed to allow for the operating inaccuracy inherent in the valve, damage may occur.
- In motor circuits, rigid frames or mechanisms that tie motors together, and/or complete mechanical synchronized motion of the output shaft of the motors, either by wheels to the pavement or sprockets to conveyors, will contribute to cavitation, lock-up and/or pressure intensification.
- Variations in speed and lock-up can be attributed to differences in motor displacement, motor leakage, wheel diameter variance and friction of wheels on the driving surface.
- Extreme pressure intensification can occur on multiple wheel drive vehicles.
- Flow between ports is limited to spool leakage. This does not provide leak proof holding capability, but can be useful in minimizing cross flow and drift.
- Divisional and combining accuracy are equal.
- Below the minimum flow rating there is not enough flow for the valve to modulate. It is effectively a tee. If flow starts at zero and rises, there will be no dividing or combining control until the flow reaches the minimum rating.
- 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.
