The Sun Hydraulics DNDAXDN214N (DNDAXDN214N) is a solenoid-operated, 4-way, 2-position cartridge valve designed for efficient fluid control in hydraulic systems. This direct-acting, balanced spool directional valve is engineered to operate without the need for minimum hydraulic pressure, making it versatile for various applications. It features a fatigue-rated solenoid tube assembly capable of withstanding up to 5000 psi (350 bar), ensuring durability and reliability under high-pressure conditions. The valve offers multiple manual override options, although these are not compatible with weatherized coils. Notably, the D, L, and T manual control assemblies have a mechanical life expectancy of approximately 7,000 cycles. The valve's design incorporates a wet armature system where the working fluid surrounds the armature. This configuration can lead to heat exposure from the coil during prolonged energization periods, potentially affecting certain fluids like water-glycol mixtures by causing varnish formation over time. The solenoid's magnetic design enhances efficiency by providing high spool actuating force per watt expended, ensuring dependable valve shifting. Sun Hydraulics provides a range of coil termination and voltage options along with interchangeable coils compatible with other Sun Series 1 solenoid products. Coil connector options are available with ratings up to IP69K for enhanced environmental protection. The cartridge utilizes Sun's floating style construction to reduce internal part binding due to installation torque variations or cavity machining differences. Additional specifications include a capacity of 10 gpm (40 L/min), typical response time of 50 ms, maximum leakage at specified conditions of 10 in\u00b3/min (160 cc/min), and switching frequency capability of up to 15,000 cycles per hour. Installation requires specific torque settings between 30-35 lbf ft (41-47 Nm). The product is lightweight at .60 lb (.30 kg) and comes with Viton seal kits for both cartridge and coil components.
