The Sun Hydraulics DMDADBV712 (DMDADBV712) is a high-performance, solenoid-operated 3-way, 2-position cartridge valve designed for precise control in hydraulic systems. This direct-acting, balanced spool directional valve features a fatigue-rated solenoid tube assembly capable of handling pressures up to 5000 psi (350 bar), making it suitable for rigorous applications. The valve's spools\u2014B and R\u2014remain closed during the transition between positions to enhance performance by ensuring faster and more consistent response times, particularly beneficial when used as pilot controls where capacity is less critical. The DMDADBV712 operates without any minimum hydraulic pressure requirement, offering reliable functionality across a range of conditions. It includes manual override options with detent mechanisms designed for temporary actuation; these are expected to last approximately 7,000 cycles. Additionally, the valve accommodates EPDM seals specifically for use with phosphate ester fluids; however, these seals must avoid exposure to petroleum-based substances to prevent damage. Another notable feature of this model is its wet armature design where the working fluid envelops the armature. This setup requires consideration of fluid characteristics as prolonged coil energization can lead to fluid degradation at high temperatures. The interchangeable coils compatible with other Sun Series 1 solenoid products add versatility in maintenance and replacement processes. This model also incorporates Sun\u2019s floating style construction which minimizes internal parts binding that could arise from excessive installation torque or variations in cavity/cartridge machining. With a flow capacity of 12 gpm (45 L/min) and swift response times typically around 50 ms, the DMDADBV712 is engineered for both efficiency and durability in complex hydraulic setups.
