The Sun Hydraulics Z8U (Material Number: Z8U) is a precision-engineered line mount manifold designed for fluid control systems. This manifold features a ninety-degree body configuration, making it suitable for compact installations where space constraints are a consideration. It includes two mounting holes with a diameter of 0.28 inches (7.1 mm) that are drilled through the body, facilitating secure and straightforward installation. The Z8U model is equipped with one open cavity, specifically designed to accommodate the T-163A cavity type, and comes with SAE 8 port sizes, ensuring compatibility with standard hydraulic systems. This manifold is constructed from 6061-T651 aluminum, known for its exceptional corrosion resistance and mechanical properties, making it ideal for demanding environments where durability is essential. Although anodizing is not applied to this model, the inherent properties of the material provide sufficient protection against corrosion without compromising on performance or longevity. It is important to note that aluminum manifolds like the Z8U are not rated for pressures exceeding 3000 psi (210 bar), which should be considered during system design to ensure safe operation. The Sun Hydraulics Z8U manifold serves as an integral component in hydraulic circuits by providing efficient fluid routing and connectivity between various hydraulic elements. Its robust construction and thoughtful design make it well-suited for applications requiring reliable performance under moderate pressure conditions in hydraulic systems.
