The Sun Hydraulics DNCADLN612 (DNCADLN612) is a high-performance solenoid-operated, 4-way, 2-position cartridge valve designed for robust and efficient hydraulic control. This direct-acting, balanced spool directional valve ensures a closed transition between positions, minimizing oil loss during shifting\u2014a crucial feature in pilot control circuits. The DNCADLN612 is engineered with a capacity based on port 3 as the inlet and port 1 as the tank, supporting up to 8 gpm/30 L/min flow rate and operating under a maximum pressure of 5000 psi/350 bar. This model incorporates EPDM seals suitable for systems using phosphate ester fluids, while its wet armature design allows the working fluid to surround the armature. Users should note that prolonged energization of the coil may lead to breakdown in certain fluids like water-glycol mixtures due to heat exposure. The valve offers a variety of coil termination and voltage options, including designs with surge protection and environmental shielding up to IP69K ratings. Sun Hydraulics has designed the DNCADLN612 with interchangeability in mind; its coils are compatible with other Series 1 solenoid products and can be mounted in either direction on the tube. The solenoid\u2019s magnetic design enhances efficiency, delivering high spool actuating force per watt expended for reliable valve shifting. Additionally, this model features Sun\u2019s floating style construction which helps prevent internal part binding caused by excessive installation torque or cavity/cartridge machining variations. With rapid response times typically around 50 ms and maximum leakage at 10 in\u00b3/min at 3000 psi, this valve maintains precise control under demanding conditions. It also supports manual overrides requiring minimal force, further enhancing operational flexibility. The DNCADLN612 is not only powerful but also versatile and durable for various hydraulic applications requiring precise fluid control.
