Helios Technologies, Inc. (Helios) has released its cartridge valve model FPJP, a unique cartridge valve that provides precise proportional control at high flow rates. Launched by Sun Hydraulics (Sun) a Helios Technologies operating company, FPJP is part of Sun’s electro-proportional flow control family.
This electro-proportional flow control valve delivers an industry leading flow rate of 114 gpm (431 L/min) and can operate at a maximum pressure of 5000 psi (350 bar). Specifically designed for use in the Sun cavity, it incorporates Sun’s floating style construction. This innovative design minimizes the risk of internal parts binding, which can occur due to excessive installation torque or machining inconsistencies — a common issue with industry standard cartridge valves.
By combining FPJP’s high-capacity flow rates with the versatility of the XMD Series valve driver, a user can create compact solutions that are perfect for a wide array of on- and off-highway equipment. These innovative solutions are ideal for applications in agriculture, construction, earth moving, forestry, marine, and material handling.
