The Sun Hydraulics DNCADJN836 (DNCADJN836) is a high-performance, solenoid-operated, 4-way, 2-position cartridge valve designed for precise control in hydraulic systems. This direct-acting, balanced spool directional valve features a closed transition between positions, minimizing the loss of oil during shifting which is crucial in maintaining efficiency especially in pilot control circuits. The valve's configuration allows port 3 to serve as the inlet and port 1 as the tank outlet, though it supports reverse flow with a caution that performance levels might not be the same and is generally not recommended. With a robust design, the DNCADJN836 can handle up to 5000 psi (350 bar) and is fatigue rated for demanding applications. It does not require a minimum hydraulic pressure for operation, making it versatile across various hydraulic setups. The solenoid tube assembly of this model is specifically designed to withstand extended use under high-pressure conditions. The valve incorporates EPDM seals suitable for systems using phosphate ester fluids; however, these seals are susceptible to damage if exposed to petroleum-based fluids. Its wet armature design allows the working fluid to surround the armature which could be an important consideration depending on fluid type and operational duration as heat build-up can affect fluid integrity. For customization and flexibility in application, Sun Hydraulics offers a variety of coil termination and voltage options for this model, including versions with surge protection. The coils are interchangeable with other Sun Series 1 solenoid products and can be oriented in either direction during mounting. Additionally, options for enhanced environmental protection through weatherized coils and kits are available. In terms of construction, this model benefits from Sun's floating style which helps prevent internal parts binding due to installation variances or machining discrepancies. This feature ensures reliable operation and longevity of the valve even under rigorous conditions.
