The Sun Hydraulics DMDATAN824 (DMDATAN824) is a high-performance solenoid-operated 3-way, 2-position cartridge valve designed for rigorous hydraulic applications. It features a direct-acting, balanced spool directional design that ensures reliable operation without the need for minimum hydraulic pressure. This valve is particularly noted for its fatigue rating of 5000 psi (350 bar), making it suitable for heavy-duty use. The spools B and R maintain closed positions during transitions, enhancing performance at the cost of lower capacity, which is ideal in pilot control applications where speed and consistency are critical. The DMDATAN824 incorporates advanced design elements such as a wet armature setup, where the working fluid surrounds the armature to manage heat from the coil, although care must be taken with certain fluids that may degrade under prolonged heat exposure. This model supports interchangeable coils with other Sun Series 1 solenoid products and can be mounted in either direction on the tube, providing flexibility in installation and maintenance. Additional features include a manual override with a detent mechanism designed for temporary actuation and an expected mechanical life of approximately 7,000 cycles. The valve also utilizes EPDM seals suitable for phosphate ester fluids but incompatible with petroleum-based substances which could cause damage. The DMDATAN824 is built to minimize internal part binding thanks to Sun\u2019s floating style construction which accommodates variations in installation torque and machining. Specifications such as a maximum flow capacity of 12 gpm (45 L/min), rapid response time typically at 50 ms, and a robust switching frequency of up to 15,000 cycles/hr round out its capabilities. The manual override requires minimal force, enhancing ease of operation under different pressure settings. This model's thoughtful engineering ensures it meets stringent requirements while providing reliable performance in diverse hydraulic systems.
