Features:
  • Responsive adjustment and self-cleaning filters.
  • Temperature and pressure compensation.
  • Built-in turbulence suppressors and pressure gauges.
  • Self-closing manual lowering and continuous duty solenoids.
Valve Adjustments:
  • Up Adjustments: Bypass, acceleration, deceleration, levelling speed, and stop adjustments.
  • Down Adjustments: Acceleration, full speed, deceleration, and levelling speed adjustments.
Operational Guidelines:
  • Valves are factory adjusted and tested; electrical operation should be checked before changing settings.
  • Adjustments should be performed by qualified personnel to avoid injury or equipment damage.
Optional Equipment: Includes emergency power solenoids, slack rope valves, main shut-off valves, hand pumps, and pressure switches.
Safety Warnings: Unauthorized manipulation of valves can result in injury or damage. Ensure electrical power is off and pressure is reduced before servicing.
Procedures: Instructions for adjustments and replacements in case of down leakage, with a specified order of replacement.
Parts List: Detailed list of spare parts, including O-rings, solenoid valves, and other components, with specific dimensions and materials.
Recommendations: Advises against removing certain flow valves and exceeding 8 turns of piping into valve connections. Provides guidance on ordering EV valves.
Flow Guide Selection: Includes charts for selecting flow guides for the down direction and examples for placing orders.
Key Components: Lists components such as lock screws, flanges, adjustment parts, springs, and solenoid parts, with descriptions and part numbers.
Diagrams and Charts: Contains flow guide selection charts and static pressure diagrams for empty cars, essential for understanding operational parameters.

Elevator Control Valves EV-1

Elevator Control Valves EN ISO 9001 The BLAIN EV program includes the widest range of options offered to the elevator industry for high performance passenger service. Easy to install, EV‘s are smooth, reliable and precise in operation throughout extreme load and temperature variations. Description Available port sizes are ¾", 1½", 2" and 2½" pipe threads, depending on flow. EV‘s start on less than minimum load and can be used for across the line or wye-delta starting. According to customers‘ information, valves are factory adjusted ready for operation and very simple to readjust if so desired. The patented up levelling system combined with compensated pilot control ensure stability of elevator operation and accuracy of stopping independent of wide temperature variations. EV valves include the following features essential to efficient installation and trouble free service: Simple Responsive Adjustment Temperature and Pressure Compensation Solenoid with Connecting Cables Pressure Gauge and Shut Off Cock Self Closing Manual Lowering Technical Data: Self Cleaning Pilot Line Filters Self Cleaning Main Line Filter (Z-T) Built-in Turbulence Suppressors 70 HRc Rockwell Hardened Bore Surfaces 100% Continuous Duty Solenoids 1½" & 2" EV Flow Range: l/min 10-125 (2-33 US gpm) 30-800 (8-211 US gpm) 500-1530 (132-404 US gpm) Pressure Range (valve): bar 8-100 (116-1450 psi) 8-100 (116-1450 psi) 8-68 (116-986 psi) Press.
