The Sun Hydraulics DMDALAN848 (DMDALAN848) is a high-performance solenoid-operated 3-way, 2-position cartridge valve designed for robust and efficient hydraulic control. This direct-acting, balanced spool directional valve operates without requiring a minimum hydraulic pressure, making it versatile for various applications. Its construction includes a fatigue-rated solenoid tube assembly capable of handling pressures up to 5000 psi (350 bar), ensuring durability and reliability in demanding environments. The valve features closed transitions between Spools B and R, optimizing performance by providing faster and more consistent response times, particularly useful when applied as pilot controls. The DMDALAN848 is equipped with either D or L control options; the manual override includes a detent mechanism intended for temporary actuation with a mechanical life expectancy of around 7,000 cycles. Designed with EPDM seals, this model is specifically configured for use with phosphate ester fluids, while exposure to petroleum-based fluids should be avoided to prevent seal damage. The wet armature design of the valve allows the working fluid to surround the armature which can be critical if the coil remains energized over extended periods as it may affect fluid integrity. Interchangeability of coils with other Sun Series 1 solenoid products adds to its flexibility in system design, allowing mounting in any direction on the tube. This model also integrates Sun's floating style construction which minimizes internal parts binding caused by installation torque or cavity/cartridge machining variations. With a capacity of 12 gpm (45 L/min) and quick response times typically around 50 ms, the DMDALAN848 is an effective solution for advanced hydraulic systems requiring precise control and long-term reliability.
