The Sun Hydraulics RVGACEN (Material Number: RVGACEN) is a ventable, pilot-operated, balanced piston relief cartridge designed for precise pressure regulation. This normally closed valve opens to the tank port when the inlet pressure reaches its set point, allowing throttled flow to maintain desired pressure levels. It features a vent port that facilitates remote control via other pilot or 2-way valves, making it versatile for various hydraulic applications. The valve is engineered for accuracy with minimal pressure rise against flow and operates smoothly and quietly with moderate speed. It can handle maximum pressure at port 2 and is suitable for cross port relief circuits, although spool leakage should be considered in such configurations. The main stage orifice is safeguarded by a 150-micron stainless steel screen, ensuring durability and reliability. However, it is not recommended for load-holding applications due to potential spool leakage. The valve setting is directly influenced by back pressure on the tank port at a 1:1 ratio. For systems using phosphate ester fluids, cartridges with EPDM seals are available; these seals are incompatible with petroleum-based fluids. The Sun floating style construction minimizes risks of internal binding caused by excessive installation torque or machining variations. Key specifications include a capacity of 60 gpm (240 L/min), maximum operating pressure of 5000 psi (350 bar), control pilot flow between 15-20 in\u00b3/min (0.25-0.33 L/min), and typical response time of 10 ms. The valve's maximum leakage at 110 SUS (24 cSt) is rated at 4 in\u00b3/min (65 cc/min) under 1000 psi (70 bar). Adjustment requires up to five full clockwise turns to increase settings, with specific torque requirements for installation and adjustments detailed in the product documentation.

Ventable, pilot-operated, balanced piston relief cartridges are normally closed pressure regulating valves. When the pressure at the inlet (port 1) reaches the valve setting, the valve starts to open to tank (port 2), throttling flow to regulate the pressure. They provide a vent port (port 3) that connects between the main piston and pilot stage to provide for remote control by other pilot or 2-way valves. These valves are accurate, have low pressure rise vs. flow, they are smooth and quiet, and are moderately fast.
- A remote pilot relief on port 3 (vent) will control the valve below its own setting.
- Will accept maximum pressure at port 2; suitable for use in cross port relief circuits. If used in cross port relief circuits, consider spool leakage.
- Main stage orifice is protected by a 150 micron stainless steel screen.
- Not suitable for use in load holding applications due to spool leakage.
- Back pressure on the tank port (port 2) is directly additive to the valve setting at a 1:1 ratio.
- 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.
- 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.
