The Sun Hydraulics DMDASAV948 (DMDASAV948) is a solenoid-operated 3-way, 2-position cartridge valve designed for high-efficiency hydraulic system control. This direct-acting, balanced spool directional valve is notable for its soft shift feature which mitigates shock from valve actuation, enhancing system longevity though it may not be suitable for applications requiring precise timing control. The valve's response time varies between 150 ms to 300 ms depending on several factors including flow, pressure, coil voltage, oil viscosity, and ambient temperature. Engineered for robust performance, the DMDASAV948 includes a push-type manual override and is housed in a solenoid tube assembly rated for up to 5000 psi (350 bar), ensuring reliability under high-pressure conditions. It incorporates Sun\u2019s floating style construction which minimizes internal part binding and potential malfunctions due to installation torque or cavity/cartridge machining discrepancies. This model supports a maximum flow capacity of 5 gpm (20 L/min) and features EPDM seals specifically designed for use with phosphate ester fluids; these seals are susceptible to damage if exposed to petroleum-based fluids. The wet armature design of the valve means that the working fluid surrounds the armature which could lead to fluid breakdown in prolonged energized states particularly with water-glycol mixtures. Additional technical specifications include a manual override force requirement of 5 lbs at 1000 psi for Port 1, and an override stroke of .10 inches (2.5 mm). The solenoid tube diameter stands at .75 inches (19 mm), and the valve requires an installation torque between 30 - 35 lbf-ft (41 - 47 Nm). Weighing just .60 lb (0.30 kg), this model is compact yet powerful enough for diverse hydraulic applications requiring reliable directional control and environmental resilience as evidenced by available IP69K rated coil connector options.

This solenoid-operated 3-way, 2-position cartridge is a direct-acting, balanced spool directional valve.
- The soft shift cartridge is interchangeable with the standard cartridge, however, the performance limits are lower.
- The soft shift feature can greatly reduce shock due to valve actuation but should not be counted upon in applications where timing is critical. If you need accurate ramping or timing control, consider Sun's electro-proportional valves.
- The soft shift feature results in significant increase in response time over Sun's standard solenoid. Response time is dependent on flow, pressure, coil voltage, oil viscosity and ambient temperature. Typical response time ranges from 150 ms to 300 ms.
- For consistent soft shift performance, port 1 should be at a positive pressure.
- This valve includes a push-type manual override control. Other manual control options such as T or D, cannot be ordered with the soft shift control but can be installed easily in the field. See Twist/Lock Manual Override link above for details. Please note: Manual override functionality is not compatible with weatherized coils.
- The solenoid tube assembly is fatigue rated for 5000 psi (350 bar) service.
- Cartridges configured with EPDM seals are for use in systems with phosphate ester fluids. Exposure to petroleum based fluids, greases and lubricants will damage the seals.
- This valve utilizes a wet armature design. This means that the working fluid surrounds the armature and is exposed to the heat generated by the coil. This can be a factor if the coil is energized for long periods of time. Some fluids, notably water/glycol mixtures, break down at these temperatures over time and form varnishes that will affect the function of the cartridge.
- The solenoid's unique magnetic design results in a high efficiency solenoid, yielding high spool actuating force per Watt expended, leading to reliable valve shifting.
- Coil connector options offer ratings up to IP69K. See individual coil product pages for details. Additional weatherized coils and kits are available for more complete environmental protection.
- Incorporates the Sun floating style construction to minimize the possibility of internal parts binding due to excessive installation torque and/or cavity/cartridge machining variations.
