Reliable Load Holding Technology
Starts with Sun

Sun's popular CB**  family of valves set the industry standard in load holding applications. When dependability matters, our trusted cartridge valves pass the test by providing exceptional quality and control. Vented and non-vented options are available with several pilot ratios and flow rates possible to meet the demand of your many unique applications.

Efficiency Where it's Needed Most

Compromising between stability (low pilot ratio) and efficiency (high pilot ratio) is a thing of the past with Sun's LoadAdaptive™ counterbalance valves. These valves are multi-pilot ratio non-vented solutions engineered to be direct replacements for CB** valves. When energy and efficiency are important to your applications, Sun's LoadAdaptive™ valves offer up to 30% energy savings.

Sun's LoadMatch™ cartridge valves offer substantial energy savings by operating with lower pilot pressure—without sacrificing performance. This valve was designed to lift various load pressures and has the durability to withstand corrosion in some model types.

Providing up to 85% of energy-efficient power is the resilient and compact eSense™ (pictured right). This low-leakage solution offers up to 90% less oscillation, resulting in superb shock absorption.
