The Sun Hydraulics DMDAXPV912 (DMDAXPV912) is a solenoid-operated 3-way, 2-position cartridge valve that excels in applications requiring reliable directional control of hydraulic fluids. This direct-acting, balanced spool valve is designed to operate without a minimum hydraulic pressure, making it versatile for various low and high-pressure applications. The DMDAXPV912 features a fatigue rating of 5000 psi (350 bar), ensuring durability and performance under demanding conditions. Key specifications include a maximum flow capacity of 12 gpm (45 L/min) and typical response times of 50 ms, facilitating quick and efficient operation. The valve is built with interchangeable coils from the Sun Series 1 solenoid products, which can be mounted in either direction, enhancing flexibility in system design. It also incorporates Sun\u2019s floating style construction to minimize internal parts binding, which could result from excessive installation torque or variations in cavity/cartridge machining. This model uses EPDM seals suited for systems with phosphate ester fluids; however, these seals are susceptible to damage if exposed to petroleum-based fluids. It also features a wet armature design where the working fluid surrounds the armature, potentially affecting fluid integrity if exposed to prolonged heat from the coil. Manual override options with the D or L control offer temporary actuation with a mechanical life expectancy of approximately 7,000 cycles. The manual override requires minimal force (5 lbs at 1000 psi for Port 1), making operation straightforward and user-friendly. Furthermore, this valve model ensures minimal leakage at high pressures and has been engineered for up to 15,000 switching cycles per hour without performance degradation. Overall, the Sun Hydraulics DMDAXPV912 valve is an efficient solution for directing flow in hydraulic systems where reliability and rapid response are critical. Its robust construction and adaptable features make it suitable for an array of industrial applications demanding precise control over fluid direction and flow.
