Control Valves for Small Lifts

EN ISO 9001

KV 1/2" solenoid valves are designed for small hydraulic lifts operating at speeds up to 0.16 m/s (32 fpm) or 1 m/s (200 fpm) depending on the valve selected. The smooth and accurate ride characteristics of the KVH valve which includes 'soft stop' in both directions, render it highly suitable for quality home lifts and lifts for the handicapped. Flow Range: Oil Viscosity: Solenoids AC: Solenoids DC: Ports: 5-80 l/min. (1.3-20 gpm) - see flow pressure charts on page 6 Pressure Range: 3-100 bar (45-1500 psi). 25-60 mm/sec. at 40C (15-35 cSt. at 120F) Max. Oil Temperature: 70C (158F) 24 V/1.8 A, 42 V/1.0 A, 110 V/0.5 A, 230 V/0.18 A, 50/60 Hz Insulation Class, AC and DC: IP 68 12 V/2.1 A, 24 V/1.1 A, 42 V/0.6 A, 80 V/0.3 A, 110 V/0.25 A, 196 V/0.14 A.

Adjustments UP
Valves are already tested and adjusted. Check electrical operation before changing valve settings. Test that the correct solenoid is energized by removing nut and raising solenoid slightly to feel pull. Nominal Settings: Adjustment 1 (and 4 at KVH) level with flange faces. Adjustment 3 (at KVH) all the way 'in' (clockwise) then three turns 'out' (c-clockwise). Adjustment 5 (KV1 & KV2) level with flange faces. KV1P 1. Up Bypass: When the pump is started, the unloaded car should remain stationary at the floor for a period of about 1 second before starting upwards. The length of this delay is according to the setting of adjustment 1.'In' (clockwise) shortens the delay, 'out' (c-clockwise) lengthens the delay. Up Stop: At floor level, the pump-motor is de-energized. The stop may be abrupt depending on load and speed of approach. No adjustment possible. S Relief Valve: 'In' (clockwise) produces a higher, 'out' (c-clockwise) a lower maximum pressure setting (3 mm Allan Key).

KV1S

1. Up Bypass: When the pump is started, the unloaded car should remain stationary at the floor for a period of about 1 second before starting upwards. The length of this delay is according to the setting of adjustment 1.'In' (clockwise) shortens the delay, 'out' (c-clockwise) lengthens the delay. 5. Up Stop: At floor level solenoid A is de-energized. Through a time relay the pump must run approx. 1/2 seconds longer to allow the car to stop smoothly by valve operation according to the setting of adjustment 5. 'In' (clockwise) provides a softer stop, 'out' (c-clockwise) a quicker stop. Pre-adjustment: With solenoid A disconnected and the pump running, 5 should be turned in until the car starts to move up, then slowly backed off again until the car stops. Alternative Up Stop: At relatively higher speeds and with the time relay arrangements as with 'up stop' above, the car may travel to just above floor level. In overtravelling the floor, down leveling solenoid D is energized, lowering the car smoothly back down to floor level where D is de-energized. S Relief Valve: 'In' (clockwise) produces a higher, 'out' (c-clockwise) a lower maximum pressure setting (3 mm Allan Key).

Up Stop: At floor level solenoid A is de-energized. Through a time relay the pump must run approx. 1/2 seconds longer to allow the car to stop smoothly by valve operation according to the setting of adjustment 5. 'In'' (clockwise) provides a softer stop, 'out' (c-clockwise) a quicker stop. Pre-adjustment: With solenoid A disconnected and the pump running, 5 should be turned in until the car starts to move up, then slowly backed off again until the car stops. Alternative Up Stop: At relatively higher speeds and with the time relay arrangements as with 'up stop' above, the car may travel to just above floor level.

The length of this delay is according to the setting of adjustment 1.'In' (clockwise) shortens the delay, 'out' (c-clockwise) lengthens the delay. 3. Deceleration: When C is de-energized, the car decelerates according to adjustment 3 to leveling speed. 'In' (clockwise) provides a softer, 'out' (c-clockwise) a rougher deceleration. 4. Up Leveling: With solenoid C de-energized (see 3) the car will proceed at its leveling speed according to the setting of adjustment 4. 'In' (clockwise) provides a quicker, 'out' (c-clockwise) a slower leveling speed. 3. Up Stop: At floor level solenoid A is de-energized. Through a time relay the pump must run approx. 1/2 seconds longer to allow the car to stop smoothly by valve operation according to the setting of adjustment 3. 'In' (clockwise) provides a softer stop, 'out' (c-clockwise) a quicker stop. Pre-adjustment: With solenoid A disconnected and the pump running, 3 should be turned in until the car starts to move up, then slowly backed off again until the car stops. S Relief Valve: 'In' (clockwise) produces a higher, 'out' (c-clockwise) a lower maximum pressure setting (3 mm Allan Key).

Adjustments DOWN
Valves are already tested and adjusted. Check electrical operation before changing valves settings. Test that the correct solenoid is energized by removing nut and raising solenoid slightly to feel pull. KV Nominal Settings: Adjustments 7 & 9, screwheads level with the hexagon heads. KV1P / KV1S 6. Down Acceleration: When solenoid D is energized, the car will accelerate downwards according to the setting of adjustment 6. 'In' (clockwise) provides a softer down acceleration, 'out' (c-clockwise) a quicker acceleration. Pre-adjustment: 6 should be turned all the way in and then solenoid D energized. Turn 6 slowly back out until the car accelerates downwards. 7. Down Speed: With solenoid D energized as above, the down speed of the car is according to the setting of adjustment 9. 'In' (clockwise) provides a slower down speed, 'out' (c-clockwise) a faster down speed. Down Stop: At floor level, solenoid D is de-energized causing the car to stop. No adjustment necessary. H Manual Lowering: 'out' (c-clockwise) allows the car to be lowered by hand. Closes automatically on release. KV2P / KV2S / KVH 6. Down Acceleration: When solenoids C and D are energized, the car will accelerate downwards according to the setting of adjustment 6. 'In' (clockwise) provides a softer down acceleration, 'out' (c-clockwise) a quicker acceleration. Pre-adjustment: 6 should be turned all the way in and then solenoid C and D energized. Turn 6 slowly back out until the car accelerates downwards. 7. Down Speed: With solenoids C and D energized as above, the down speed of the car is according to the setting of adjustment 7. 'In' (clockwise) provides a slower down speed, 'out' (c-clockwise) a faster down speed. Down deceleration: When solenoid C is de-energized whilst solenoid D remains energized, the car will decelerate according to the built-in damping. No further adjustment will be required. 9. Down Leveling: With solenoid C de-energized and solenoid D remaining energized, the car will travel at its down leveling speed according to the setting of adjustment 9. 'In' (clockwise) provides a slower, 'out' (c-clockwise) a faster down leveling speed. Down Stop: At floor level, solenoid D is de-energized causing the car to stop. No adjustment necessary. H Manual Lowering: 'out' (c-clockwise) allows the car to be lowered by hand. Closes automatically on release. KS Slack Rope Valve Nominal Settings:With the end of adjustment K initially level with flange faces, open the manual lowering.The car without load should descend. Turn 'in' (clockwise) adjustment K until the car comes to a stop then 'out' (c-clockwise) again until it again descends. In case the car does not come to a stop, i.e. at pressures over 15 bar, turn 'in' (clockwise) K all the way and then back 'out' (c-clockwise) half a turn. See also KS sheet.
