FLeX Series
z All FLeX Series valves incorporate the Sun oating-style construction to minimize the possibility of internal
parts binding due to excessive installation torque and/or cavity/cartridge machining variations.
z FLeX Series proportional valves are fully compatible with the XMD Mobile Drivers from Sun.
z Designed and tested to exceed 1 million on-o operational cycles.
z Meets new NFPA test standard T2.6.1 R2014 for fatigue and burst pressure ratings.
z Improved linearity and resolution over similar competing valves.
z Designed using CFD uid simulation for optimized geometries.
z For optimum performance, an amplier with current feedback and adjustable dither (80 - 250 Hz) should
be used.
z Capacities rated at 200-psi (14-bar) dierential and maximum rated coil current.
z The valve exhibits a large degree of self-compensation in the 2-to-1 direction and will provide proportional
ow control in the 1-to-2 direction with the addition of an external compensator. Full reverse ow (1-to-2) with
100% command in the 1-to-2 direction is possible without a compensator under all conditions.
z Zinc-nickel plating standard for 1000-hour salt fog protection.
z The FPBU valves can be used with the 740 Series high-power and 747 Series hazardous location coils.
z A wide variety of coil termination and voltage options are available, with and without surge protection. See the
CONFIGURATION section.
z Coil connector options oer ratings up to IP69K. See individual coil product pages for details.
z A 50-psi (3,5-bar) back pressure is recommended.
z The valve is direct actuated and requires no minimum hydraulic pressure for operation.
z Extremely low leakage - 0.004 in (0,07 cm)/min (1 drop/min).

ELECTROPROPORTIONAL,
THROTTLE BLOCKING POPPET VALVE
TECHNICAL FEATURES
SERIES 0, CAVITY: T-162A
This valve is a normally closed, electro-proportional, throttle
blocking poppet that is spring-biased closed. Energizing the
coil generates an opening force on the poppet proportional
to the command current, and this force is countered by the
spring and ow forces. This force balance creates a metering
orice whose eective size is proportional to the current.
The valve exhibits a large degree of self-compensation
in the 2-to-1 direction and will provide proportional ow
control in the 1-to-2 direction with the addition of an
external compensator. Full reverse ow (1-to-2) with 100%
command in the 1-to-2 direction is possible without a
compensator under all conditions.
FPBU
Function: When de-energized, the poppet (1) is pulled
against the valve seat (2) by the spring (3), closing the valve
and blocking ow. When energized, the solenoid with coil (4)
pushes the poppet o the seat and opens the valve, allowing
uni-directional ow.

NOTE: Please verify cartridge clearance requirements when choosing a Sun manifold. Dierent valve controls and coils require
dierent clearances. An additional minimum 2.0 in. (50,8 mm) beyond the valve extension is needed for coil installation and removal.

XMD Single- and Dual-Output Drivers
The XMD is a single- or dual-output driver used with solenoid-operated electro-proportional valves for the mobile and industrial
hydraulic industries. The driver can be mounted on a manifold using the standard mount clip or directly to the 740 Series low-
and high-power coils using an optional coil-mount clip.
