Types EV220B 15-50 and EV220BW 40-50

EV220B 15-50 and EV220BW 40-50 are a

universal indirect servo-operated 2/2-way
solenoid valve program. Valve body in brass,
dezincification resistant brass and stainless
steel ensures that a broad variety of application
can be covered. Built-in pilot filter as standard,
adjustable closing time and enclosures up to
IP67 ensures optimal performance even under
critical working conditions.

Features
• For water, steam, oil, compressed air and
gases
• Ambient temperature: Up to 80 °C
• Coil enclosure: Up to IP67
• Water hammer damped
• Built in filter for protection of pilot system
• Adjustable closing time available
• EV220B 15-50 NC and NO brass version for
neutral liquids and gasses
• EV220B 15-50 NC DZR brass version for
neutral and slightly aggressive liquids and
gases
• EV220B 15-50 NC Stainless Steel version for
neutral and aggressive liquids and gases
• EV220BW 40-50 NC+NO EPDM and WRAS for
drinking water

2 Functions

2.1 Function NC, brass, DZR brass and stainless steel

Coil voltage disconnected (closed)
When the voltage is disconnected, the valve plate (3) is pressed down against the pilot orifice (4) by the armature
spring (2). The pressure across the diaphragm (5) is built up via the equalizing orifice (7). The diaphragm closes the
main orifice (6) as soon as the pressure across the diaphragm is equivalent to the inlet pressure. The valve will be
closed for as long as the voltage to the coil is disconnected.

Coil voltage connected (open)

When voltage is applied to the coil (1), the pilot orifice (4) is opened. As the pilot orifice is larger than the equalizing
orifice (7), the pressure across the diaphragm (5) drops and therefore it is lifted clear of the main orifice (6). The valve
is now open for unimpeded flow and will be open for as long as the minimum differential pressure across the valve
is maintained, and for as long as there is voltage to the coil.

3 Applications

It is recommended to use a filter in front of the valve. Recommended filter 50 mesh (297 microns).

Figure 3: Filter

32U1460
Danfoss

In water applications, exercise the valves at least once every 24 hours, meaning change the state of the valve. The
valve exercise will minimize the risk of the valve sticking due to calcium carbonate, zinc or iron oxide build-up.

To minimize scaling, and corrosion attack it is recommended that the water passing the valve have the following
values:
• Hardness 6-18 °dH to avoid scaling (chalk / lime stone build up).
• Conductivity 50 – 800 µS/cm to avoid brass dezincification and corrosion.
• Above 25°C media temperature avoid stagnant water inside the valve to avoid dezincification and corrosion
attack.

Orifice
Equalizing orifice
A shorter closing time is obtained with a larger orifice (the shorter closing time, the greater risk of water
hammering). A longer closing time is obtained with a smaller orifice.
The valves closing time can be changed by installing an equalizing orifice of a size which deviates from the standard
valve.

Adjustable orifice
The valves closing time can be adjusted by turning the setting screw.
• A shorter closing time is obtained with a larger orifice (the shorter closing time, the greater risk of water
hammering).
• A longer closing time is obtained with a smaller orifice.
