The Sun Hydraulics DMDASPN512 (DMDASPN512) is a solenoid-operated, 3-way, 2-position cartridge valve engineered for precise hydraulic fluid direction control. This direct-acting, balanced spool directional valve is designed to operate with a maximum flow capacity of 5 gpm (20 L/min) and can withstand a maximum operating pressure of 5000 psi (350 bar). The valve features a soft shift option that moderates the shock typically associated with valve actuation, although it is not recommended for applications requiring critical timing control. The DMDASPN512 includes a push-type manual override and boasts a manual override force requirement of 5 lbs at 1000 psi for port 1. It also incorporates Sun's floating style construction which helps prevent internal parts binding due to excessive installation torque or variations in cavity/cartridge machining. Notably, the valve\u2019s solenoid tube assembly is fatigue rated for high-pressure service up to 5000 psi. This model uses EPDM seals suitable for systems utilizing phosphate ester fluids; however, these seals are susceptible to damage when exposed to petroleum-based fluids. The wet armature design of the solenoid means that the working fluid surrounds the armature, potentially affecting performance if exposed to high temperatures over prolonged periods. This factor should be considered especially when using fluids like water-glycol mixtures that may degrade under such conditions. Additionally, the DMDASPN512 features high-efficiency solenoid design which ensures reliable valve shifting with optimal energy use. Various coil connector options are available for this model, offering environmental protection ratings up to IP69K. The standard installation requirements include a torque range of 30-35 lbf ft and hex size compatibility of 7/8 in. The overall weight of the model is approximately 0.60 lb (0.30 kg), making it suitable for various industrial applications requiring robust and efficient hydraulic control.

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.
