The Sun Hydraulics DMDADAN714 (DMDADAN714) is a high-performance solenoid-operated 3-way, 2-position cartridge valve that features a direct-acting, balanced spool directional control. This valve is designed to operate without minimum hydraulic pressure, enhancing its versatility in various applications. With a robust solenoid tube assembly rated for fatigue at 5000 psi (350 bar), this model ensures reliability under high-pressure conditions. The DMDADAN714 incorporates closed transitions between Spools B and R, optimizing performance by providing faster and more consistent response times, especially suitable for pilot controls where capacity is less critical. The manual override options available with the D or L control are designed primarily for temporary actuation and offer a mechanical life expectancy of approximately 7,000 cycles. This model uses EPDM seals configured specifically for systems utilizing phosphate ester fluids; however, these seals are susceptible to damage if exposed to petroleum-based fluids. Its wet armature design allows the working fluid to surround the armature which could be a consideration during prolonged coil energization as it may affect fluid integrity over time. Key specifications include a maximum operating pressure of 5000 psi (350 bar), typical response time of 50 ms, and a flow capacity of up to 12 gpm (45 L/min). The valve features interchangeable coils compatible with other Sun Series 1 solenoid products and can be mounted in either direction on the tube. Additionally, it employs Sun's floating style construction to minimize internal parts binding due to installation torque or cavity/cartridge machining variations. With dimensions accommodating a .75 in (19 mm) solenoid tube diameter and an installation torque requirement between 30 - 35 lbf ft (41 - 47 Nm), this compact unit weighs just .60 lb (0.30 kg), making it an efficient choice for space-conscious applications requiring precise hydraulic control.
