The Sun Hydraulics DMDADAV936 (DMDADAV936) is a high-performance solenoid-operated 3-way, 2-position cartridge valve that excels in various hydraulic applications due to its direct-acting, balanced spool design. This model is particularly noted for its robust construction, including a solenoid tube assembly rated for fatigue at 5000 psi (350 bar) service. The valve features closed transitions between positions B and R, enhancing performance by ensuring faster and more consistent response times, ideal for pilot control applications where capacity is less critical. The DMDADAV936 operates without requiring a minimum hydraulic pressure, which allows for flexibility in low-pressure systems. It includes options such as manual overrides with detent mechanisms designed for temporary actuation and has a mechanical life expectancy of approximately 7,000 cycles. The valve is equipped with EPDM seals suitable for phosphate ester fluids; however, these seals must avoid exposure to petroleum-based fluids to prevent damage. One of the key attributes of this model is its wet armature design where the working fluid surrounds the armature. This design consideration is crucial when the coil remains energized over extended periods as it could affect fluid integrity in certain conditions. The interchangeable coils with other Sun Series 1 solenoid products add versatility to this unit, allowing easier maintenance and replacement. Moreover, the DMDADAV936 incorporates Sun's floating style construction to minimize internal part binding caused by excessive installation torque or variations in cavity/cartridge machining. With a maximum flow capacity of 12 gpm (45 L/min) and rapid response times typically around 50 ms, this valve ensures efficient operation across a range of settings. The manual override features require minimal force, thus facilitating easier handling during operations. This model's thoughtful engineering ensures it meets rigorous operational demands while maintaining high reliability and performance standards.
