The Sun Hydraulics DMDAXAV4E24V (DMDAXAV4E24V) is a high-performance solenoid-operated 3-way, 2-position cartridge valve designed for precise hydraulic control. This direct-acting, balanced spool directional valve ensures robust operation with its fatigue-rated solenoid tube assembly for up to 5000 psi (350 bar) service. The model features spools B and R, which are closed during the transition between positions, enhancing performance at the cost of lower capacity. This characteristic is particularly advantageous when used as pilot controls, offering faster and more consistent response times without the need for minimum hydraulic pressure. The DMDAXAV4E24V is equipped with manual overrides that are intended for temporary actuation; these include options with D or L control having a mechanical life expectancy of about 7,000 cycles. It is important to note that cartridges configured with EPDM seals are specifically designed for use with phosphate ester fluids and should not be exposed to petroleum-based fluids which can damage the seals. This valve incorporates a wet armature design where the working fluid surrounds the armature exposed to heat from the coil, which may affect fluid integrity over extended periods. The unit supports a flow capacity of up to 12 gpm (45 L/min) and can handle a maximum operating pressure of 5000 psi (350 bar). Its quick response time of approximately 50 ms and compatibility with other Sun Series 1 solenoid products through interchangeable coils add to its versatility in application. Additional features like Sun's floating style construction minimize internal parts binding due to installation torque or machining variations, ensuring reliable operation and longevity. With its comprehensive design tailored for demanding applications, this valve represents a strategic component for systems requiring precise fluid control under high-pressure conditions.
