The Sun Hydraulics DMDAMAN2E12V (DMDAMAN2E12V) is a high-performance solenoid-operated 3-way, 2-position cartridge valve designed for precise hydraulic control. This direct-acting, balanced spool directional valve boasts a robust design with a fatigue rating suitable for up to 5000 psi (350 bar) service. It features closed transitions between spool positions B and R, enhancing performance by providing faster and more consistent response times, particularly beneficial in pilot control applications where capacity is less critical. Engineered for durability and reliability, the DMDAMAN2E12V requires no minimum hydraulic pressure to operate, making it versatile across various applications. The manual override feature, available in models with D or L control, incorporates a detent mechanism designed for temporary actuation. This valve promises a mechanical life expectancy of around 7,000 cycles. Notably, the valve utilizes EPDM seals configured specifically for systems using phosphate ester fluids; however, these seals are sensitive to petroleum-based substances which can cause damage. The wet armature design of the DMDAMAN2E12V means that the working fluid surrounds the armature\u2014important to consider as prolonged coil energization can lead to fluid degradation at high temperatures. For maintenance and customization ease, its coils are interchangeable with other Sun Series 1 solenoid products and can be mounted in either direction on the tube. Additionally, this model incorporates Sun\u2019s floating style construction which minimizes internal part binding due to installation torque or cavity/cartridge machining variations. With a maximum flow capacity of 12 gpm (45 L/min) and rapid response time typically around 50 ms, this valve is an efficient solution for advanced hydraulic systems requiring reliable directional control.
