The Sun Hydraulics DMDAXPV848 (DMDAXPV848) is a solenoid-operated 3-way, 2-position cartridge valve that is direct-acting with a balanced spool design. This model is specifically engineered to ensure high performance and reliability in various hydraulic applications. With its robust solenoid tube assembly, the valve is fatigue rated for 5000 psi (350 bar), making it suitable for high-pressure environments. The spools B and R maintain a closed position during the transition between two positions, enhancing the valve's performance by ensuring a faster and more consistent response time, particularly when used as pilot controls. This direct-actuated valve does not require any minimum hydraulic pressure to operate, providing flexibility and ease of use across different systems. It is equipped with manual override options including D or L control, which are intended for temporary actuation with a mechanical life expectancy of approximately 7,000 cycles. The DMDAXPV848 features EPDM seals suitable for systems using phosphate ester fluids; however, these seals must not be exposed to petroleum-based fluids as they could be damaged. Additionally, the valve employs a wet armature design where the working fluid surrounds the armature, potentially affecting fluid properties if exposed to prolonged heat from an energized coil. Interchangeable coils with other Sun Series 1 solenoid products add versatility, allowing for easy maintenance and replacement. The construction incorporates Sun\u2019s floating style to minimize internal parts binding due to installation or machining variations. Key specifications include a maximum flow capacity of 12 gpm (45 L/min), typical response time of 50 ms, and maximum operating pressure of 5000 psi (350 bar). This model also supports switching frequencies up to 15,000 cycles/hr and features manual override components designed for minimal force requirements. These attributes make the Sun Hydraulics DMDAXPV848 an efficient and reliable choice for controlling fluid power in various hydraulic systems.
