The Sun Hydraulics DNCAMCV814 (DNCAMCV814) is a solenoid-operated, 4-way, 2-position cartridge valve designed for efficient directional control in hydraulic systems. This direct-acting, balanced spool directional valve features a closed transition between positions, minimizing oil loss during shifting\u2014an essential attribute for pilot control circuits. The valve is optimized with port 3 as the inlet and port 1 as the tank; while reverse flow is feasible, it may not maintain the same performance levels and is therefore not advised. Constructed to withstand pressures up to 5000 psi (350 bar), the solenoid tube assembly is fatigue-rated for high-pressure service. The wet armature design allows working fluid to surround the armature, which can impact performance if coils are energized for extended durations, particularly with water-glycol mixtures that may degrade over time. This model does not require a minimum hydraulic pressure for operation due to its direct actuation capability. It offers versatility with various coil termination and voltage options available, some equipped with surge protection. The high-efficiency solenoid design ensures reliable valve shifting by providing substantial 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. For environmental resilience, coil connector options are rated up to IP69K, and additional weatherized coils and kits are available. The DNCAMCV814 incorporates Sun's floating style construction to reduce risks of internal part binding due to excessive installation torque or cavity/cartridge machining variations. It has a capacity of 8 gpm (30 L/min), a typical response time of 50 ms, and a maximum leakage rate of 10 in\u00b3/min at 3000 psi (160 cc/min at 210 bar). The valve supports switching frequencies up to 15,000 cycles per hour and requires minimal manual override force for operation.
