The Sun Hydraulics DNCADAN223 (DNCADAN223) is a high-performance, solenoid-operated, 4-way, 2-position cartridge valve designed for precise hydraulic control. This direct-acting, balanced spool directional valve features a closed transition between positions, minimizing oil loss during shifting which is crucial in pilot control circuits. The valve is engineered to handle a maximum operating pressure of 5000 psi (350 bar) and has a flow capacity of 8 gpm (30 L/min), with port 3 as the inlet and port 1 as the tank. The DNCADAN223 is uniquely constructed with fatigue-rated solenoid tube assemblies for durable service under high pressure. It operates without requiring a minimum hydraulic pressure, enhancing its versatility in various applications. The wet armature design ensures that the working fluid surrounds the armature, which could be critical when the coil is energized for extended periods as it affects fluid integrity by potentially forming varnishes. This model offers an array of coil termination and voltage options, including configurations with surge protection. Its coils are interchangeable with other Sun Series 1 solenoid products and can be mounted in either direction on the tube. Connector options for these coils can meet up to IP69K standards, providing robust protection against environmental conditions. Additionally, the DNCADAN223 incorporates Sun's floating style construction which reduces risks associated with internal parts binding due to excessive installation torque or variations in cavity/cartridge machining. This feature ensures consistent performance and reliability in demanding applications. The valve also boasts rapid response times typically around 50 ms and supports switching frequencies up to 15,000 cycles per hour. Overall, the Sun Hydraulics DNCADAN223 offers advanced hydraulic control capabilities suitable for systems requiring reliable and precise fluid management under varying operational conditions.
