Solenoid valves for R 410A and R744 (CO2)
EVR 2 to EVR 8 and EVRH 10 to EVRH 40
EVR 2 and EVR 3 (direct operated) and EVR 4 to
EVR 8 / EVRH 10 to EVRH 40 (servo-operated) are
high pressure solenoid valves specially designed
to meet the requirements of high pressure
refrigerants such as R410A and R744 (CO2).
The EVRH valve can be used for liquid, suction
and hot gas lines.
R744, R22/R407C, R404A/R507, R410A,
R134a, R407A, R23, R744.
For other refrigerants, please contact Danfoss.
Note: EVR 2 – EVR 3 and EVRH 25 – EVRH 40 are not suitable for
R744 (CO2)applications with media temperatures constantly below
0 °C.
For other media temperatures, please contact Danfoss.
The table values refer to evaporator capacity
and are given as a function of evaporating
temperature te and pressure drop ∆p across the
valve. Capacities are based on liquid temperature
tl = 100 °F ahead of the expansion valve and
superheat ts = 7 °F. For each additional 10 °F of
superheat, the table capacities must be reduced
by 2%.

When liquid temperature tl ahead of the
expansion valve is other than 100°F, adjust
the table capacities by multiplying them by
the appropriate correction factor found in the
following table:

Hot gas capacity values in the table are given
as a function of condensing temperature tc and
pressure drop across the valve ∆p.
Capacities are based on gas superheated 40 °F
above condensing temperature,
(th= tc + 40 °F)
For each additional 10 °F of superheat above
40 °F, the table capacities must be reduced by
1%.
In a hot gas defrost circuit, evaporator
temperature aects valve capacity.
When the evaporator temperature diers from
40 °F, adjust the table capacities by multiplying
them by applying a correction factor from the
following table.

EVRH solenoid valves are designed on two
dierent principles:
1. Direct operation
2. Servo operation
1. Direct operation
EVR 2 and EVR 3 are direct operated. The valves
open directly for full ow when the armature (16)
moves up into the magnetic eld of the coil. This
means that the valves operate with a min.
dierential pressure of 0 bar. The valve plate (18)
is tted directly on the armature (16). Inlet
pressure acts from above on the armature and
the valve plate. Thus, inlet pressure, and spring
force act to close the valve when the coil is
currentless.
2. Servo operation
EVR 4 to EVR 8 and EVRH 10 – EVRH 20 are servo
operated with a “oating” diaphragm (80). The
pilot orice (29) is placed in the centre of the
diaphragm. The pilot valve plate (18) is tted
direct to the armature (16). When the coil is
currentless, the main orice and pilot orice are
closed. The pilot orice and main orice are held
closed by the armature spring force and the
dierential pressure between inlet and outlet
sides. When current is applied to the coil the
armature is drawn up into the magnetic eld and
opens the pilot orice. This relieves the pressure
above the diaphragm, i.e. the space above the
diaphragm becomes connected to the outlet
side of thevalve.
Note: EVR 2-3 and EVRH 25-40 are not suitable for R744 (CO2)
applications with media temperatures constantly below 0 °C.
For other media temperatures, please contact Danfoss.

The dierential pressure between inlet and
outlet sides then presses the diaphragm away
from the main orice and opens it for full ow.
Therefore a certain minimum dierential
pressure is necessary to open the valve and
keep it open. For EVR 4 to EVR 8 and EVRH 10
– EVRH 20 valves this dierential pressure is
0.05 bar. When current is switched o, the pilot
orice closes. Via the equalization holes (73) in
the diaphragm, the pressure above the
diaphragm then rises to the same value as the
inlet pressure and the diaphragm closes the
main orice.
EVRH 25 – EVRH 40 are servo operated piston
valves. The valves are closed with currentless
coil. The servo piston (80) with main valve plate
(84) closes against the valve seat (83) by means
of the dierential pressure between inlet and
outlet side of the valve and the force of the
compression spring (76).
When current to the coil is switched on, the
pilot orice (29) opens. This relieves the
pressure on the piston spring side of the valve.
The dierential pressure will then open the
valve. The minimum dierential pressure
needed for full opening of the valves is 0.2 bar.
