Technical features
- The spool incorporates a hydraulic stop that eliminates mechanical impact and therefore the potential for internal damage.
- The hydraulic stop results in a small pilot flow from the high side work port (port 2 or 4) to the common port (port 3).
- A unique feature due to the hydraulic stop is that the hot oil relief setting can be confirmed with the transmission in neutral.
- NOTE: Low shift values can potentially result in charge pump pressure alone inadvertently shifting the valve. Use care when selecting shift pressure.
- Although this valve goes into a 4-port cavity, the nose (port 1) is not used.
- 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.

Frequently asked questions
Is DSCHXHN the same as DSCH-XHN?
Yes. Sun Hydraulics writes this part number as DSCHXHN. It is the model DSCH followed by the configuration code; hyphens, slashes and spaces are only dividers, so DSCHXHN, DSCH-XHN, DSCH XHN all refer to the same product.
Do you supply DSCHXHN in the UAE, GCC and India?
Yes. MultiFlow supplies genuine Sun Hydraulics cartridges, including DSCHXHN, to customers in the UAE, the wider GCC and India. Use Add to Enquiry on this page for availability, lead time and a quotation.
Can I get the datasheet and CAD files?
Yes. The datasheet, technical reference sheets and CAD files (DXF, DWG, STP) are listed in the Downloads section of this page.
How big is a drop of hydraulic oil?
There are exactly 250 Sun drops in a cubic inch or 15 in a cc.
Direct acting or pilot operated - what do I use?
Direct-acting valves are used to prevent over pressure, and pilot-operated valves are used to regulate pressure. If you are unsure, use a direct-acting valve. Sun's direct acting valves are very fast, dirt tolerant, stable, and robust. Sun's pilot-operated valves are moderately fast, they have a low pressure rise vs. flow curve, and they are easy to adjust.
What parts of the Sun cartridge valve are field serviceable?
