Overview

A wide range of steering components

Danfoss is one of the largest producers in the world of steering components for hydrostatic steering systems on off-road vehicles. Danfoss offers steering solutions both at component and system levels. Our product range makes it possible to cover applications of all types, ranging from ordinary 2 wheel steering (also known as Ackermann steering) to articulated steering, automatic steering (for example, by sensor) and remote controlled steering via satellite. We can offer more than 1,800 different steering units and 250 different priority valves categorized in types, variants and sizes.

Technical Information
Overview
Characteristic features for steering units:
Low steering torque: from 0.5 to 3 N•m in normal steering situations
Low noise level
Low pressure drop
Many types available: Open center Non-reaction, Open center Reaction, Power Beyond, Closed center Non-reaction, Load Sensing, Load Sensing Reaction
One or more built-in valve functions: relief valve, shock valves, suction valves, non-return valve in P­line and LS-line
Optional port connections according to ISO, SAE or DIN standards
Characteristics for EH steering systems with OSPE, EHPS, and EHi:
Possibility of GPS, row sensor, variable steering ratio and joystick steering
Possibility of manual steering even on very heavy vehicles
EHPS:
High steering pressure requiring smaller cylinders and flow
Low pilot pressure and flow giving extremely low noise in the cabin
Combined with Danfoss PVG 32 proportional valve

Technical Information

Steering unit type VSPP

General

VSPP

The VSPP is a steering unit with integrated priority valve inside the envelope of a standard steering unit housing.
This brings about a very compact solution minimizing installation space, cost and time. VSPP is the perfect solution for smaller vehicles like e.g. low horse power tractors, mini wheel loaders and
light fork lift trucks, where one gear pump is in use for steering and working hydraulic.
All VSPP products are black painted as standard.
All VSPP's are High Spec. for maximum steering pressure 190 bar [2755 psi].

Load Sensing dynamic steering unit with built in priority valve, VSPP LS

The VSPP is a steering unit with integrated priority valve inside the envelope of the standard VSP housing. VSPP LS are all of load sensing dynamictype and so the integrated priority valve is dynamic type.
Spool/sleeve sets for 2 levels of LS dynamic flow are available:
Standard LS spool/sleeve set: 0.6 - 0.9 l/min [0.16 - 0.24 US gal/min]
High dynamic LS spool/sleeve set: 1.0 - 1.3 l/min [0.26 - 0.34 US gal/min]
High dynamic is recommended, when extreme fast response is requested, e.g. when unloading working hydraulic load (EF) very rapidly during steering. Trade off with high dynamic is slightly higher energy consumption.

Non-reaction

VSPP’s are non-reaction steering units, where there is no movement of the steering wheel, when the driver is not steering the vehicle. The vehicle keeps the steering direction independent of forces on the steering cylinder.

VSPP versions, overview

Gear set

The gear set meters the volume of oil/revolution on the steering wheel, cm3/rev. 2 versions of gear set are available for VSPP:
Low Noise is default for VSPP up to and including 250 cm3/rev. VSPP 315 and VSPP 400 will have gear set with standard profile
Seal star: reduces slippage, when steering cylinder is at end stroke. Seal star gear sets are available in 50, 70, 80, 100 and 125 cm3/rev.
All seal star gear sets have standard profile.
The VSP's are available in the x-marked combinations:
Type Spool/sleeve set Gear set
Standard LS: High dynamic Low Noise Seal star
VSPP LS: Load Sensing non reaction w. int. Priority valve
