The Sun Hydraulics DMDAXPV724 (DMDAXPV724) is a solenoid-operated 3-way, 2-position cartridge valve designed for high-performance hydraulic systems. This direct-acting, balanced spool directional valve features a robust design with a solenoid tube assembly rated for 5000 psi (350 bar), making it suitable for high-pressure applications. The spools B and R ensure closed transitions between positions, enhancing performance by providing faster and more consistent response times, particularly useful in pilot control applications where capacity is less critical. This model operates without requiring a minimum hydraulic pressure, adding to its versatility in various system configurations. It includes optional manual override controls (D, L, T types) which have a mechanical life expectancy of around 7,000 cycles and are intended for temporary actuation. The valve is equipped with EPDM seals specifically for use with phosphate ester fluids; however, these seals must avoid contact with petroleum-based fluids to prevent damage. The DMDAXPV724 utilizes a wet armature design where the working fluid surrounds the armature. This setup helps in heat management but requires attention as some fluids may degrade if exposed to prolonged heat. The interchangeable coils compatible with other Sun Series 1 solenoid products offer flexibility in maintenance and replacement processes. Additionally, this valve model incorporates Sun's floating style construction which minimizes the risk of internal parts binding due to excessive installation torque or variations in cavity/cartridge machining. Its maximum operating parameters include a flow capacity of 12 gpm (45 L/min) and switching frequency of up to 15,000 cycles per hour. With its compact size and precise manual override features, the DMDAXPV724 is engineered for reliability and optimal performance in demanding hydraulic applications.
