The Sun Hydraulics DNCALCV848 (DNCALCV848) is a high-performance, solenoid-operated, 4-way, 2-position cartridge valve that features a direct-acting, balanced spool design for efficient control in hydraulic systems. With a closed transition between positions, the DNCALCV848 minimally impacts hydraulic fluid loss during position shifts, making it especially suitable for pilot control circuits where maintaining fluid integrity is critical. This valve boasts a robust construction with a fatigue rating of 5000 psi (350 bar), ensuring reliable operation under high-pressure conditions. The direct actuation mechanism of the DNCALCV848 does not require minimum hydraulic pressure to operate, enhancing its versatility across various applications. It is designed to handle a flow capacity up to 8 gpm (30 L/min) with maximum operating pressures reaching up to 5000 psi (350 bar). The DNCALCV848's solenoid tube assembly incorporates an innovative magnetic design which optimizes efficiency and maximizes spool actuating force per watt expended. This feature contributes to dependable and consistent valve shifting even under demanding conditions. Furthermore, the valve\u2019s wet armature design allows the working fluid to surround the armature, although prolonged energization should be monitored due to potential heat effects on certain fluids. For enhanced compatibility and customization, this model offers a variety of coil termination and voltage options, including models with surge protection. The coils are interchangeable with other Sun Series 1 solenoid products and can be installed in either orientation on the tube. Additionally, various environmental protection options such as weatherized coils and kits are available to suit different operational environments. Incorporating Sun's floating style construction minimizes internal part binding risks due to installation or machining discrepancies, promoting longer service life and reliability. This model uses EPDM seals when configured for phosphate ester fluids but is incompatible with petroleum-based fluids which could damage the seals. With its diverse configuration options and robust design, the DNCALCV848 serves as an essential component for efficient directional control in hydraulic systems.
