The Sun Hydraulics DLDAZCV612N (DLDAZCV612N) is a high-performance solenoid-operated 2-way, 2-position cartridge valve. This direct-acting, balanced spool directional valve is designed to function efficiently in either a normally open or normally closed configuration. It features a position switch that confirms the valve's placement in the spring-biased position, enhancing its reliability and operational safety. The unit is built with a fatigue-rated solenoid tube assembly capable of handling services up to 5000 psi (350 bar), making it suitable for rigorous applications. The DLDAZCV612N operates without requiring a minimum hydraulic pressure and incorporates a wet armature design where the working fluid surrounds the armature. This design aspect is crucial as it can influence fluid integrity under prolonged energization, particularly affecting water-glycol mixtures that may degrade at high temperatures. Users should consider this when operating under such conditions to maintain optimal functionality. This valve model offers flexibility with various coil termination and voltage options available, including configurations with surge protection. Its unique magnetic design ensures high efficiency and effective spool actuating force per Watt expended, thereby ensuring reliable shifting of the valve. Additionally, Sun Hydraulics' floating style construction minimizes internal parts binding which might occur due to installation torque or machining variations of the cavity/cartridge. Key specifications include a maximum flow capacity of 12 gpm (45 L/min), quick response time typically around 50 ms, and robust switching frequency up to 15000 cycles/hr. Installation requires specific tools like a crow's foot wrench due to the design of the position switch which obstructs the use of deep socket wrenches. Overall, this model weighs about 0.50 lb (0.25 kg) and uses Viton seals for enhanced durability and performance under varying conditions.
