The Sun Hydraulics DNCADSN836 (DNCADSN836) is a high-performance, solenoid-operated, 4-way, 2-position cartridge valve designed for robust and efficient hydraulic control in various applications. 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. With a capacity of 8 gpm/30 L/min and a maximum operating pressure of 5000 psi/350 bar, the DNCADSN836 is well-suited for demanding hydraulic tasks. The valve's solenoid tube assembly is fatigue rated for high-pressure service up to 5000 psi/350 bar, ensuring durability and reliability even under strenuous conditions. It operates without any minimum hydraulic pressure requirement, making it versatile across different hydraulic systems. The DNCADSN836 incorporates EPDM seals specifically for use with phosphate ester fluids; however, these seals are susceptible to damage when exposed to petroleum-based fluids. Featuring a wet armature design, the working fluid surrounds the armature which may be subjected to heat from the coil if energized for prolonged periods. This design consideration is crucial when using certain fluids like water-glycol mixtures that can degrade at elevated temperatures. The DNCADSN836 offers an array of coil termination and voltage options including models with surge protection and environmental shielding options such as weatherized coils for enhanced protection against environmental factors. This model benefits from Sun Hydraulics' unique magnetic solenoid design which provides high efficiency and effective spool actuating force per Watt expended. This leads to reliable valve shifting essential for consistent operational performance. Additionally, the floating style construction used in this model minimizes internal parts binding that could result from excessive installation torque or cavity/cartridge machining variations, enhancing overall reliability and ease of maintenance.
