Sun Hydraulics has launched its new Sun FLeX family of competitively priced, high performance electro-hydraulic products. These 16 completely new solenoid-operated cartridge valves and coils are the first products in the FLeX Series of solenoid valves for the mobile and industrial hydraulics markets. They use Sun’s unique floating-style design, adding an extra layer of security in harsh applications where torque and force can become excessive. Designed to outperform comparable valves, FLeX Series solenoid valves deliver:
• A consistently better pressure drop in a virtually leak-proof poppet style valve
• Over 10 million cycle operations
• A zinc-nickel plating standard (1000 hour salt fog) on valve and coil
• Coil options that include interchangeable low power, high power and explosion-proof versions for expanded configuration flexibility.
FLeX valves offer significant performance advantages over competitive valves. For example, the FLeX DTBF normally closed, direct-acting blocking poppet valve, like all the FLeX valves, was designed with advanced computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation tools to optimise flow path geometries. It is coupled with a solenoid actuator that provides optimised actuation force at critical points in the valve stroke. The result is a lower pressure differential across the valve at a given flow rate and increased shift performance at higher pressures and flows. In practice, this means hydraulic systems utilising the DTBF valves will see significant improvements in both efficiency and reliability while providing higher pressures and flow rates than competitors’ products.
Hydroformed tube valve body for diaphragm valves
Hydraulic systems & components
One of the most common necessities for manufacturing pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, food and beverages are diaphragm valves.
