The Sun Hydraulics DMDAMAN936 (DMDAMAN936) is a high-performance, solenoid-operated 3-way, 2-position cartridge valve designed for robust hydraulic system applications. This direct-acting, balanced spool directional valve ensures reliable control with its closed transition between positions B and R, enhancing performance by providing faster and more consistent response times, especially useful in pilot control applications where capacity is less critical. With a maximum operating pressure of 5000 psi (350 bar) and a flow capacity up to 12 gpm (45 L/min), it meets demanding operational criteria. This model incorporates a fatigue-rated solenoid tube assembly suitable for up to 5000 psi service, making it exceptionally durable under high-pressure conditions. The wet armature design allows the working fluid to cool the system, although care must be taken with fluid selection as some may degrade at higher temperatures. The valve features interchangeable coils with other Sun Series 1 solenoid products, offering flexibility in maintenance and setup. Equipped with EPDM seals, the DMDAMAN936 is specifically configured for use with phosphate ester fluids; however, exposure to petroleum-based fluids should be avoided as it can damage the seals. For manual override operations, this model includes a detent mechanism designed for temporary actuation with an expected mechanical life of approximately 7,000 cycles. Key specifications include a typical response time of 50 ms and maximum valve leakage at 110 SUS (24 cSt) of around 5 in\u00b3/min at 3000 psi (80 cc/min at 210 bar). Additionally, the design minimizes internal parts binding thanks to Sun\u2019s floating style construction which accommodates installation torque and machining variations effectively. This makes the DMDAMAN936 an ideal choice for sophisticated hydraulic systems requiring precise control and long-term reliability.
