The Sun Hydraulics DNCAMZV736 (DNCAMZV736) is a solenoid-operated, 4-way, 2-position cartridge valve known for its direct-acting, balanced spool design. This directional valve features a closed transition between positions, minimizing oil loss during shifting\u2014an essential factor in pilot control circuits. Designed with port 3 as the inlet and port 1 as the tank, it offers optimal performance under these conditions, although reverse flow is possible but not recommended. The solenoid tube assembly is fatigue-rated for service up to 5000 psi (350 bar), ensuring durability and reliability in high-pressure applications. Notably, this valve requires no minimum hydraulic pressure for operation due to its direct actuation. The DNCAMZV736 is compatible with EPDM seals for systems using phosphate ester fluids; however, exposure to petroleum-based fluids will damage these seals. It incorporates a wet armature design where the working fluid surrounds the armature and absorbs heat from the coil\u2014a consideration when using fluids like water-glycol mixtures that may degrade over time at elevated temperatures. The solenoid's magnetic design enhances efficiency by providing high spool actuating force per watt expended, ensuring dependable valve shifting. This model supports various coil termination and voltage options, including those with surge protection. Coils are interchangeable with other Sun Series 1 products and can be mounted in either direction on the tube. Coil connector options are available with ratings up to IP69K for enhanced environmental protection. The valve employs Sun's floating style construction to reduce internal part binding risks due to excessive installation torque or machining variations. With a capacity of 8 gpm (30 L/min) and a maximum operating pressure of 5000 psi (350 bar), this valve is suitable for demanding hydraulic applications requiring frequent switching\u2014up to 15,000 cycles per hour\u2014with minimal leakage and fast response times.
