The Sun Hydraulics DMDAMPN714 (DMDAMPN714) is a high-performance solenoid-operated 3-way, 2-position cartridge valve. This direct-acting, balanced spool directional valve is designed for robust and efficient control in hydraulic systems. With a maximum operating pressure of 5000 psi (350 bar) and a flow capacity of up to 12 gpm (45 L/min), it is well-suited for demanding applications. The DMDAMPN714 features closed transitions between its two positions, Spools B and R, enhancing performance by ensuring faster and more consistent response times, particularly useful in pilot control applications where capacity is less critical. This model incorporates a wet armature design, allowing the working fluid to surround the armature which helps in heat management but requires consideration regarding the type of fluid used due to potential breakdowns at high temperatures. It is compatible with EPDM seals specifically for use with phosphate ester fluids; however, exposure to petroleum-based fluids should be avoided as it can damage the seals. The valve's manual override mechanism is designed for temporary actuation with a mechanical life expectancy of around 7,000 cycles. It features interchangeable coils that can be mounted on the tube in either direction, aligning with other Sun Series 1 solenoid products for versatile application use. The construction of the DMDAMPN714 minimizes internal parts binding thanks to Sun's floating style design which accommodates excessive installation torque and/or cavity-cartridge machining variations. This model also offers quick response times typically around 50 ms and supports switching frequencies up to 15,000 cycles/hr, making it suitable for systems requiring frequent operation adjustments. Its robust design ensures reliability and longevity even under rigorous operational conditions.
