2-way, manually-operated, spool directional valve - pilot capacity

SERIES P / CAPACITY: 1 L/min. / CAVITY: T-8A

L-Control, C-Spool L-Control, H-Spool

D-Control, C-Spool D-Control, H-Spool

T-Control, C-Spool T-Control, H-Spool

These pilot-stage, directional, 2-position, 2-way valves are manually operated cartridges and are available in either

a normally open or normally closed configuration. These cartridges are designed for pilot flow applications and

utilize Sun's T-8A cavity so they can be used in conjunction with Sun's pilot-operated, main-stage valves. Manual

operation is achieved via Sun's Twist/Lock manual override mechanism and is designed for intermittent (infrequent)

use only.

TECHNICAL FEATURES

This valve is designed for intermittent use such as a manual override. The manual control assembly has a mechanical life expectancy of about 10,000 cycles.

The manual control assembly can be easily replaced in the field without removing the cartridge from the manifold or main stage element.

The momentary/twist control option "T" allows the operator to momentarily shift the valve by twisting the knob clockwise and releasing. Once released, the valve

returns to its normal position.

The detent/lock control option "L" allows the operator to shift the valve into a mechanically detented position by twisting the knob counter-clockwise. This detented

position will be maintained until the operator twists the knob clockwise and allows the valve to return to its normal position.

The dual-operation control option "D" allows the operator to either shift the valve momentarily by twisting the knob clockwise or shift it into a mechanically detented

postion by twisting counter-clockwise.

The control on this valve is meant to be operated by a person's hand. The control should not be modified, for instance fastening a lever to the knob. Under no

circumstances should the control be operated by other mechanical devices.

Utilizes the Sun T-8A 2-port cavity making it the ideal choice to use in conjunction with Sun's main stage pilot or vent-to-operate cartridges. Separate pilot lines are

eliminated and only one cavity needs to be machined to accommodate both the control and primary function. Note: All 2-position, 2-way pilot stage control

cartridges utilize the same cavity and are physically interchangeable. Functionality is the only consideration.

The preferred flow path through the valve is port 2 to port 1.

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.

Note: The main stage valve should first be installed to the correct torque value followed by the T-8A pilot control section into the main stage valve to its required
