The Sun Hydraulics W8X/V (Material Number: W8X/V) is a line mount hydraulic manifold designed for efficient fluid control in high-pressure systems. This model features a 0.75 SAE C62 interface and is constructed from 6061T651 aluminum, known for its excellent corrosion resistance and durability. The manifold is engineered with a direct mount body type, facilitating easy integration into existing systems without the need for additional hardware or modifications. It includes open cavities designed to accommodate specific cartridge valves, with one cavity labeled as T13A. The port size is specified as 34 Code 62, ensuring compatibility with standard hydraulic fittings. This manifold's construction makes it suitable for applications requiring robust performance at pressures up to 3000 psi (210 bar). Despite its aluminum composition, which limits its pressure rating compared to steel counterparts, the material choice provides an optimal balance of strength and weight while maintaining cost-effectiveness. The design considerations ensure that the manifold can handle significant stress without compromising structural integrity or performance. Sun Hydraulics has opted not to anodize this aluminum body due to several reasons such as cost implications and potential reductions in fatigue life by up to 50%. The decision also avoids logistical challenges associated with anodizing thousands of manifolds monthly while maintaining consistency in production quality. As such, the W8X/V offers reliable service life without the added process of anodizing, making it an ideal choice for users prioritizing durability and efficiency in their hydraulic systems.
