SUN Flow Divider/Combiner Cartridge Valves

Sun Hydraulics flow divider and flow divider/combiner cartridges are sliding spool devices that are used to split or combine flow in a variety of applications. Sun flow divider and flow divider/combiner cartridges can be conveniently applied using many mounting options.

• Offer accurate divisional and combining accuracy in a small size
• Offer high flow capacity relative to size
• Are available in a synchronizing version for bi-directional static error correction
• Operate at pressures up to 5000 psi (350 bar)

Divider

• Maximum operating pressure = 5000 psi
• This valve is a divider only; any attempt to flow backwards through the valve is not advised.
• Divisional accuracy at maximum rated input flow = FSBD: ±2.5%, FSCD, FSDD, FSED, FSFD: ±3.5%
• Divisional accuracy at minimum rated input flow = FSBD: ±4.5%, FSCD, FSDD, FSED, FSFD: ±6.5%
• Pressure drop at maximum input flow = 250 psi
• Pressure drop at minimum input flow = 10 psi
• 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 control until the flow reaches the minimum rating.

Divider/Combiner, Closed Center

• Maximum operating pressure = 5000 psi
• Divisional accuracy at rated maximum input flow = 50% ±2.5%
• Divisional accuracy at rated minimum input flow = 50% ±4.5%
• Pressure drop at maximum input flow = 350 psi
• Pressure drop at minimum input flow = 25 psi
• 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.
• Divisional and combining accuracy are equal.

Synchronizing Divider/Combiner

• Maximum operating pressure = 5000 psi
• Divisional accuracy at rated maximum input flow = 50% ±2.5%
• Divisional accuracy at rated minimum input flow = 50% ±4.5%
• Pressure drop at maximum input flow = 350 psi
• Pressure drop at minimum input flow = 25 psi
• 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.
• The synchronization feature provides bi-directional static error correction.
• Divisional and combining accuracy are equal.
