The Sun Hydraulics DNCADTV514 (DNCADTV514) is a high-performance solenoid-operated, 4-way, 2-position cartridge valve. This direct-acting, balanced spool directional valve is designed for efficient control in hydraulic systems. It features a closed transition between positions to minimize the loss of oil during shifting, which is crucial in maintaining the efficiency and performance of pilot control circuits. With a capacity based on port 3 as the inlet and port 1 as the tank, the DNCADTV514 can handle reverse flow, although it is not recommended due to potential performance variations. The solenoid tube assembly of this valve is fatigue rated for service up to 5000 psi (350 bar), ensuring durability under high-pressure conditions. Additionally, this valve operates without requiring a minimum hydraulic pressure, making it versatile for various applications. The DNCADTV514 is equipped with EPDM seals suitable for systems using phosphate ester fluids; however, these seals must not be exposed to petroleum-based fluids as they can cause damage. The wet armature design allows the working fluid to surround the armature which could be a consideration if the coil remains energized for extended periods. Various coil termination and voltage options are available to suit different operational needs and environments. Notably, this model incorporates Sun's unique magnetic design that enhances solenoid efficiency and ensures reliable valve shifting by providing a high spool actuating force per Watt expended. Coils are interchangeable with other Sun Series 1 solenoid products and can be mounted in either direction on the tube. Furthermore, connector options for coils are rated up to IP69K for superior environmental protection. Sun Hydraulics has also incorporated its floating style construction into the DNCADTV514 model to reduce internal part binding caused by excessive installation torque or cavity/cartridge machining variations. This design feature helps maintain consistent performance and extend the valve's operational lifespan.
