The Sun Hydraulics DMDALPN71299 (DMDALPN71299) is a high-performance solenoid-operated 3-way, 2-position cartridge valve, designed for direct-acting operation with a balanced spool. This valve does not require a minimum hydraulic pressure to function, making it versatile for various applications. It features a fatigue-rated solenoid tube assembly suitable for up to 5000 psi (350 bar), ensuring durability and reliability in demanding environments. The DMDALPN71299 model is particularly noted for its closed transition spools B and R, which enhance performance by providing faster and more consistent response times especially in pilot control applications where capacity is less critical. The manual override feature on models with the D or L control uses a detent mechanism intended for temporary actuation, with a mechanical life expectancy of approximately 7,000 cycles. This valve is equipped with EPDM seals optimized for use with phosphate ester fluids; however, exposure to petroleum-based fluids can damage these seals. Its wet armature design allows the working fluid to surround the armature which could be susceptible to heat during prolonged energization\u2014this aspect should be considered when using certain fluids like water-glycol mixtures that may degrade under high temperatures. Additional features include interchangeable coils compatible with other Sun Series 1 solenoid products, and a floating style construction that minimizes internal parts binding due to installation torque or machining variations of cavity/cartridge. The valve supports a maximum flow capacity of 12 gpm (45 L/min) and has quick response times typically around 50 ms. With its robust construction and versatile design elements, the Sun Hydraulics DMDALPN71299 offers reliable performance for hydraulic system applications requiring precise control of fluid direction and flow.
