The Sun Hydraulics DMDMTPV (DMDMTPV) is a manually operated, 2-position, 3-way directional cartridge valve designed for specific hydraulic control applications where intermittent manual control is necessary. This direct-acting, balanced spool valve features Sun's TwistLock manual override mechanism, which ensures reliable operation under limited use conditions. The valve is engineered to facilitate manual operation through three distinct options: momentary-twist (T), detent-lock (L), and dual-operation (D). These options allow the operator to either temporarily shift the valve by twisting the knob or maintain it in a mechanically detented position for short periods. Constructed to handle a maximum operating pressure of 5000 psi (350 bar) and a flow capacity of up to 12 gpm (45 L/min), the DMDMTPV meets rigorous performance standards. It also exhibits minimal leakage at high pressures, ensuring efficient operation with a maximum valve leakage rate of 5 in\u00b3/min at 3000 psi. The operational torque required is relatively low at 10 lbf\u00b7in (1.2 Nm), which facilitates ease of manual operation without excessive force. The valve's robust design includes Sun's floating style construction, which minimizes internal part binding due to potential installation torque excesses or cavity/cartridge machining variations. This feature enhances the durability and reliability of the valve in various hydraulic systems. Installation specifications include a hex size of 7/8 in (22.2 mm) and an installation torque range of 30-35 lbf\u00b7ft (41-47 Nm), which aligns with standard practices for hydraulic system components. Overall, the Sun Hydraulics DMDMTPV offers precise manual control for hydraulic systems requiring occasional intervention without compromising on performance and reliability. Its design and operational features make it suitable for applications where manual override is necessary but not frequently used.
