The Sun Hydraulics DMDATAN836 (DMDATAN836) is a high-performance solenoid-operated 3-way, 2-position cartridge valve. This direct-acting, balanced spool directional valve is designed to efficiently control the direction of fluid within a hydraulic system. It features a fatigue-rated solenoid tube assembly capable of handling pressures up to 5000 psi (350 bar), making it suitable for rigorous applications. The valve offers closed transitions between its two positions, Spools B and R, enhancing performance by ensuring faster and more consistent response times especially suitable for pilot control applications where capacity is less critical. The DMDATAN836 operates without requiring a minimum hydraulic pressure, adding to its versatility in various system configurations. Certain models include a manual override with a detent mechanism designed for temporary actuation, supporting up to approximately 7,000 cycles. Additionally, this model can be equipped with EPDM seals specifically for use with phosphate ester fluids; however, these seals must not be exposed to petroleum-based fluids as they could degrade. Another notable feature of the DMDATAN836 is its wet armature design which exposes the working fluid to heat generated by the coil potentially affecting fluid integrity over extended periods of energization. The valve's design includes interchangeable coils compatible with other Sun Series 1 solenoid products and incorporates Sun's floating style construction which minimizes internal parts binding due to installation torque or machining variations. With a maximum flow capacity of 12 gpm (45 L/min) and swift response times typically around 50 ms, the DMDATAN836 is an effective solution for dynamic hydraulic systems requiring reliable directional control. This compact unit also supports frequent switching operations up to 15,000 cycles per hour and maintains low leakage rates ensuring efficient performance across various applications.
