Data Sheet
Solenoid Valve
Type EVT
EVT high pressure range is a direct or servo operated solenoid valve specially designed to €t into CO2 transcritical refrigeration systems.
They can be applied in following applications:
• EVT 1.2 direct operated for oil return, pressure equalization/relief control, high pressure hot gas bypass/dump and hot gas defrost.
• EVT 2.0 and 3.0 servo operated for high pressure hot gas bypass/dump and hot gas defrost application.
EVT valves and coils are sold separately.
Features
• Direct and servo operated mini piston solenoid valve with compact construction

Solenoid Valve, Type EVT
Functions
Normally closed (NC)
Direct operated
EVT 1.2 is direct operated. This means that the valve can operate at 0bar differential pressure.
Coil voltage disconnected (closed):
When the voltage to the coil is disconnected, the armature (3) with the seat plate (6) is pressed down against the valve ori€ce by the closing spring (5) and inlet pressure. The valve will be closed for as long as the coil is disconnected.
Coil voltage connected (open):
The valve opens directly for full flow when the voltage is applied to coil, the armature (3) with seat plate is lifted clear of the valve ori€ce. The valve will be open for as long as there is voltage to the coil.

Servo operated
EVT 2.0 and 3.0 is servo operated piston solenoid valves. The servo piston principle results in a fast operating and compact valve that can open against a high differential pressure.

Solenoid Valve, Type EVT
When the coil is disconnected, the armature (3) with seat plate (6) is pressed down against the pilot ori€ce by the armature spring (8). Via the equalization ori€ce in the piston (5), the pressure above the piston rises to the same value as the inlet pressure and the piston closes the main ori€ce. The valve will be closed for as long as the coil is disconnected.
Coil voltage connected (open):
When current is applied to the coil, the armature (3) is drawn up into the magnetic €eld and opens the pilot ori€ce. This relieves the pressure above the piston (7), i.e. the space above the piston becomes connected to the outlet side of the valve. The differential pressure between inlet and outlet sides then presses the piston away from the main ori€ce and now the main ori€ce opens for full flow. Therefore, a minimum differential pressure of 2 bar is necessary to open the valve and 0.4 bar to keep it open.
