The Sun Hydraulics DMDASPN228 (DMDASPN228) is a high-performance solenoid-operated 3-way, 2-position cartridge valve featuring a direct-acting, balanced spool design. This model is specifically engineered to offer a soft shift option which minimizes hydraulic shock during valve actuation, although it is not suitable for applications requiring critical timing control, such as those needing precise ramping or timing. The response time of this valve varies between 150 ms to 300 ms depending on factors like flow rate, pressure, coil voltage, oil viscosity, and ambient temperature. Designed for robust performance with a maximum operating pressure of 5000 psi (350 bar) and a flow capacity of up to 5 gpm (20 L/min), the DMDASPN228 ensures reliable operation under demanding conditions. It includes a push-type manual override control and features an innovative magnetic design that enhances solenoid efficiency, providing strong spool actuating force per watt expended. The construction of the DMDASPN228 incorporates Sun Hydraulics' floating style design which helps prevent internal parts from binding due to excessive installation torque or variations in cavity/cartridge machining. It also utilizes a wet armature design where the working fluid surrounds the armature; this is important to consider as prolonged energization can lead to fluid degradation in certain types of hydraulic fluids. This valve is compatible with EPDM seals for systems using phosphate ester fluids; however, exposure to petroleum-based fluids can damage these seals. For environments requiring enhanced protection against elements, weatherized coils and additional kits are available that extend the valve\u2019s resilience and operational life span. The coil connector options provided can support ratings up to IP69K for increased environmental sealing.

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.
