OSPE Steering Valve

General Information

General steering valve type OSPE

On tractors, combine harvesters, maize harvesters and other simulate vehicles there is often a need for electrically actuated steering to make automatic GPS controlled steering possible. Also manual steering with variable ratio is an often wanted feature to improve productivity and driver comfort.
For this purpose Danfoss has developed a combined steering unit and electrohydraulic steering valve named OSPE: OSP for normal manual steering wheel activated steering and E for electrohydraulic steering activated by electrical input signal either from GPS or vehicle controller or from steering wheel sensor (Danfoss type SASA) for variable steering ratio. In variable steering mode, the electrohydraulic valve part adds flow to the metered out flow from the steering unit part of the OSPE.
OSPE has build in safety function in form of cut off valve, which makes unintended steering from Electro hydraulic valve part impossible. The OSPE is the right steering element first of all to build up steering system with very high safety level and so to be able to fulfill legislation demands such as those in EU Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC.
OSPE is offered with the PVED-CLS steering valve controller. PVED-CLS offers integrated, flexible software-based electrohydraulic steering functionality which can be tailored to any off-road vehicle type by software parameterization. The PVED-CLS also works as a certified Safety Controller. For further details about PVED-CLS, see OSPE with PVED-CLS Steering Valve Controller Data Sheet, AI152986484866.
In cases where space do not allow room enough for OSPE, an ordinary OSP non-reaction steering unit combined the EH-Electrohydraulic In-Line steering valve is an alternative. EH valves are offered with the same safety functions as OSPE. Please contact Danfoss sales organization.

Versions

OSPEC LS/LSRM with PVED-CLS

This version is preferred for front wheel steered vehicles, like tractors, where self-alignment steering effect is desired. Reaction type steering resembles a car where the direction of travel will continue straight ahead when ever the steering wheel is not touched. The reaction concept in any OSPE steering units is based on Danfoss RM technology. The reaction effort is selectable by help of the solenoid valve for activating EH steering:
Road mode: When EH steering is powered off, then OSPE behaves the same as a Reaction unit Field mode: When EH steering is powered on, then OSPE behaves the same as a Non-reaction unit

OSPEF LS with PVED-CLS

This version is preferred for rear wheel steered vehicles, like combines. In both modes:
Road mode: When EH steering is unpowered
Field mode: When EH steering is powered
The steering unit part behaves as a Non-reaction steering unit. The “F”-spool type is preferred for steering systems where high level of negative steering forces may be present e.g. articulated steered vehicles.

OSPEDC LSRM with PVES

This version is preferred for front wheel steered vehicles, like tractors, where self-alignment steering effect is desired. Only difference compared to OSPEC LSRM is that “D” type has 2 gear wheel sets (rotary meters). Should the pump supply be lost, only one gear set is active for emergency steering. In normal steering situations both gear sets are active.
