The Sun Hydraulics DNCALBV736 (DNCALBV736) is a high-performance, solenoid-operated, 4-way, 2-position cartridge valve designed for precise hydraulic fluid direction control in various applications. This direct-acting, balanced spool directional valve features a closed transition between positions, which is critical for minimizing oil loss during shifting, especially in pilot control circuits where maintaining fluid integrity is crucial. With a capacity of 8 gpm/30 L/min based on port 3 as the inlet and port 1 as the tank, the DNCALBV736 ensures efficient flow management. The valve's design allows for reverse flow; however, it is not recommended as optimal performance cannot be guaranteed under such conditions. The solenoid tube assembly of this model is fatigue rated for up to 5000 psi (350 bar), making it robust for demanding applications. The DNCALBV736 operates without requiring a minimum hydraulic pressure, offering versatility across various hydraulic systems. It incorporates EPDM seals specifically for use with phosphate ester fluids; these seals must avoid exposure to petroleum-based fluids to prevent damage. Additionally, the valve features a wet armature design where the working fluid surrounds the armature\u2014important to consider as prolonged coil energization could lead to fluid degradation at high temperatures. This model also boasts a variety of coil termination and voltage options, enhancing its adaptability to different electrical setups and operational environments. Its magnetic design enhances solenoid efficiency, providing strong actuating force per watt expended which facilitates reliable valve shifting. Furthermore, coils are interchangeable with other Sun Series 1 solenoid products and can be mounted in either direction on the tube. For installation ease and durability, the DNCALBV736 uses Sun's floating style construction which reduces risks associated with internal parts binding due to excessive installation torque or cavity/cartridge machining variations. This model's robust build and versatile design make it an essential component for effective hydraulic system management.
