Electrical activation unit type PVEK and PVEK-DI for proportional valves PVG 32
DKMH.PN.500.B1.02 is new Introduction Danfoss is introducing a new electrical activation unit type PVEK. PVEK is one of a new series of electrical activation units - the PVE series 3 - for PVG 32. The features of PVEK are: Newly-developed electronics based on hybrid technology. Two solenoid valves plus two orifices instead of four solenoid valves. Standard AMP connector (IP66). No fault monitoring. Integrated direction indication as an option. PVEK has been developed for systems where low hysteresis has a higher priority than reaction time. Because of its design with only two NC solenoid valves, PVEK has hydraulic characteristics that differ from than those familiar in the PVE series 2, see technical description.

PVEK is built up of both new and familiar components: Newly-developed electronics based on hybrid technology. Same inductive LVDT transducer as PVE series 2. Same hydraulic bridge as PVE series 2, but two of the solenoid valves have been replaced with two orifices(0.6 mm). The use of two solenoid valves and two orifices results in properties that deviate from those of PVM series 2 in the following respects: Low hysteresis Greater pilot oil flow. Pilot oil supply still able to sustain supply to a minimum of five activated PVEK units at the same time. Activation of PVM while voltage is being applied to the PVE (manual override) easier than with a PVEM.
To begin activation requires a force of 40 N (measured at the middle of the knob on a standard PVM). To obtain full activation requires a force of 55 N. Greater oil flow creates flow forces that may limit the travel of the main spool. Example: In systems with pressure control spools ( > D dimension), depending on the flow forces (QA/QB > 1.25), PVEK limits the velocity of a negative load when no pressure regulating valve is used. PVEK, is more sensitive to contamination than PVE series 2. In systems with strict safety requirements, it is recommended that PVEK-DI be used with direction indication connected to a safety system.

As PVEK but with integrated direction indication (DI). For direction indication, signals A and B on the DI output are "high" in neutral.
If activated in direction A (oil out of port A), signal A falls from "high" to "low" while signal B remains "high" and vice versa:
