The Sun Hydraulics DMDATRV236 (DMDATRV236) is a solenoid-operated 3-way, 2-position cartridge valve that exemplifies precision and robust functionality in hydraulic systems. This direct-acting, balanced spool directional valve is specifically designed to handle a maximum operating pressure of 5000 psi (350 bar) and supports a flow capacity of up to 12 gpm (45 L/min). Key to its design is the fatigue-rated solenoid tube assembly, ensuring reliability under demanding conditions. The DMDATRV236 features spools B and R which are closed during the transition between positions, enhancing performance by providing faster and more consistent response times, especially useful in pilot control applications where capacity is less critical. It operates without requiring a minimum hydraulic pressure, adding to its versatility across various applications. The model includes manual override options with a mechanical life expectancy of about 7,000 cycles for the D, L, and T manual control assembly. This valve uses EPDM seals suitable for systems utilizing phosphate ester fluids; however, these seals must avoid exposure to petroleum-based fluids which can cause damage. The wet armature design means the working fluid surrounds the armature which may affect fluid integrity over prolonged energized periods. Additionally, its coils are interchangeable with other Sun Series 1 solenoid products and can be mounted in either direction on the tube. Furthermore, the DMDATRV236 incorporates Sun's floating style construction which minimizes internal parts binding caused by excessive installation torque or variations in cavity/cartridge machining. This feature ensures smoother operation and increased durability. Overall, this model offers an efficient solution for controlling directional flow in hydraulic systems with high performance and reliability standards.
