1. Model Breakdown and Classification
TheDS5-TA23/14N-D24K1is aproportional directional control valvemanufactured byItaly’s DUPLOMATIC (Diploma), categorized underelectro-hydraulic proportional valves. The model code is decoded as follows:
• DS5: Series identifier (DS series denotes proportional directional valves; "5" indicates valve body size).
• TA23:
• T: Neutral position function (specific function, e.g., "O-type" or "Y-type," requires reference to spool design).
• A23: Spool model (A23 represents a specific flow-pressure characteristic curve).
• 14N:
• 14: Maximum rated flow140 L/min(@10 bar pressure drop).
• N: Mounting interface type (N denotes ISO 4401 standard interface).
• D24K1:
• D24: Electrical interface withDC 24V proportional solenoid drive.
• K1: Control signal type (K1 indicates closed-loop control with position feedback).

Parameter Value Explanation
Rated Flow 140 L/min (@10 bar pressure drop) Actual flow varies with pressure drop; refer to flow-pressure curves.
Max. Operating Pressure 350 bar Short-term peak pressure up to 420 bar (<10% duty cycle).
Proportional Control Range 0–100% Solenoid current and spool displacement exhibit linearity for precise control.
Hysteresis ≤1.5% Repeatability error in output flow during input signal changes.
Response Time ≤25 ms (step input) Delay from signal receipt to spool reaching target position.
Leakage ≤150 mL/min (@350 bar) Internal leakage affecting system efficiency.
Operating Temperature -25°C ~ +80°C Hydraulic oil temperature must remain within this range to avoid seal degradation or sticking.
Electrical Interface DC 24V (D24), with feedback port Requires matching proportional amplifier (e.g., DUPLOMATIC DPA series).

3. Core Functions and Technical Features
• Proportional Directional Control:
• Continuously regulates spool opening via solenoid current adjustment, enabling precise flow and direction control.
• Neutral position function (e.g., O-type) locks actuator position to prevent drift.
• Closed-Loop Feedback Control (K1):
• Built-in displacement sensor monitors spool position and feeds back to the controller for closed-loop operation.
• Significantly reduces hysteresis and linearity errors, enhancing control accuracy (ideal for high-dynamic applications).
• High Contamination Resistance:
• Optimized spool-valve body clearance design tolerates NAS 6-grade hydraulic oil contamination (requires regular filtration).
• Modular Design:
• Supports stacked installation (e.g., with pressure valves or check valves) for simplified system integration.

4. Typical Applications
• Injection Molding Machines: Controls clamping, injection, and ejection actions with precision for molded parts.
• Die-Casting Machines: Regulates injection speed and pressure to minimize porosity and flash defects.
• Construction Machinery:
• Controls boom/arm movements in excavators.
• Synchronizes luffing/slewing systems in cranes.
• Metalworking Machines: Manages hydraulic fixture clamping force and speed to prevent workpiece deformation.
• Automated Production Lines: Drives hydraulic actuators in robotic gripping/assembly stations.
5. Common Faults and Troubleshooting
【表格】
Fault Symptom Possible Causes Solutions
No Action/Slow Response Solenoid断路 (open circuit), insufficient power voltage Check electrical connections; measure voltage (≥22V).
Unstable Flow Feedback signal interference, oil contamination Shield control lines; replace hydraulic oil and clean valve body.
Excessive Leakage Seal aging, valve body scoring Replace seals; lap valve body mating surfaces.
High Noise Spool sticking, cavitation Clean spool; verify oil cleanliness (NAS≤6).
Overheating Excessive pressure drop, prolonged full-load operation Optimize piping design; add cooling; avoid continuous full-load use.
6. Selection and Matching Guidelines
• Flow Matching:
• Select valve rated flow based on system peak demand (e.g., for 120 L/min systems, choose DS5-TA23/14N).
• Avoid prolonged operation above 90% of rated flow to prevent overheating.
• Pressure Matching:
• Ensure system maximum pressure ≤ valve rated pressure (with 10–20% margin).
• Control Signal Matching:
• Requires proportional amplifier (e.g., DPA-01) for 0–10V or 4–20mA control signals.
• Feedback interface must align with controller compatibility (e.g., PLC or dedicated motion controller).
• Mounting Interface:
• Verify valve interface (ISO 4401) matches piping connections (subplate or manifold-mounted).
