Data Sheet
Solenoid valve
Type EV210A
Direct-operated 2/2- way solenoid valves for use in industrial machinery
EV210A covers a wide range of small, directoperated 2/2-way solenoid valves for use in
industrial machinery.
The compact design together with the broad
range of coils means that EV210A covers a
broad variety of industrial applications.
Features and versions
• For water, steam, oil, compressed air,
aggressive liquids and gases
• Screw on coil
• Ambient temperature: Up to 50 °C
• Coil enclosure: Up to IP65
• EV210A NC and NO versions in brass for
neutral media
• EV210A NC stainless steel version for neutral
and aggressive liquids and gases

Solenoid valve, type EV210A
2 Functions
2.1 Function NC
Coil voltage disconnected (closed):
When the voltage is disconnected, the armature (2) with the valve plate (3) is pressed down against the valve orice
(4) by the closing spring (1) and the medium’s 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 (5), the armature (2) with the valve plate (3) is lifted clear of the valve orice (4).
The valve is now open for unimpeded ow and will be open for as long as there is voltage to the coil.
2.2 Function NO
Coil voltage disconnected (open):
When the voltage to the coil is disconnected, the valve orice (6) is open, the opening spring (3) pressing the valve
plate (7) clear of the orice (6) via the armature (4) and the pins (5). The valve will be open for as long as the supply
voltage is disconnected.
Coil voltage connected (closed):
When voltage is applied to the coil, the armature (4) is drawn up to touch the xed top (2). The valve plate (7) is
pressed against the valve orice (6) by the closing spring (8). The valve will be closed for as long as there is voltage
to the coil.

3 Applications
It is recommended to use a lter in front of the valve. Recommended lter 50 mesh (297 microns).
Figure 1: Filter
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.
Figure 2: Exercise: Valve on/o
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 dezincication and corrosion
• Above 25 °C media temperature avoid stagnant water inside the valve to avoid dezincication and corrosion
attack
