DESCRIPTION
Spool Position Monitored Valves can be used as a component to help
meet compliance with current machine safety standards. These
devices are only one part of an overall system and are intended to be
combined with other safety rated components to provide energy
isolation and/or energy dissipation. According to current safety
standards, a Risk Assessment should be performed as a part of the
component selection.
Solenoid operated directional control valves are provided with one or
two switches to monitor the position of the spool. In the case of pilot
operated directional control valves, the slave spool is monitored. The
switching position is indicated with a binary code.
NFPA D03 (ISO 4401-03) and NFPA D05 (ISO 4401-05) size valves
are direct operated and are available with DC solenoids.
Pilot operated valves are available in the following sizes: NFPA D05 alt. A/alt. B (ISO 4401-05-05-0-05), NFPA D07 (ISO 4401-07-07-0-05), NFPA
D08 (ISO 4401-08-08-0-05) and NFPA D10 (ISO 4401-10-09-0-05). They are available with DC solenoids.
There are no manual overrides according to EN 693:2011.
MACHINE DIRECTIVE CERTIFICATION
All solenoid valves and solenoid operated valves of the VSD*S family were tested on a voluntary basis by TÜV
and found to comply with the applicable requirements of the following standards:
- UNI EN ISO 4413:2012 - Hydraulic fluid power – General rules and safety requirements for systems and their components
- UNI EN 12622:2014 - Safety of machine tools - Hydraulic press brakes
- UNI EN 693:2001+A2:2011 - Machine tools – Safety – Hydraulic presses
- UNI EN 201:2010 - Plastics and rubber machines - Injection moulding machines - Safety requirements
- UNI EN 422:2009 - Rubber and Plastic machines – Safety requirements

NOTES:
1. The values indicated in the graphs are relevant to the standard solenoid valve, with D24K1 coils.
2. Valve performance was tested in a four way circuit (full loop). Performances may be reduced from that shown when used in a three-way circuit
(half circuit), i.e. A or B port plugged.
3. The values have been obtained according to ISO 6403 norm with solenoids at rated temperature and supplied with voltage equal to 90% of
the nominal voltage. The value have been obtained with filtration according to ISO 4406:1999 class 18/16/13.

The values shown below refer to a solenoid valve working with piloting pressure of 1,450 PSI (100 bar), with mineral oil at a temperature of
122°F (50°C), at viscosity of 36 cSt and with PA and BT connections. The energizing and de-energizing times are obtained at the pressure

ADJUSTABLE PILOT CHOKES (KK)
Hydraulic shock may occur when stopping or reversing flow. This can be reduced and controlled by
lowering the spool shift velocity. The chokes operate by metering out (returning) on all 2 position
valves, and when going to center position on 3-position valves.
To request this option add the letters “KK” in the Mechanical Option Box in the identification code.
Consult with Continental Hydraulics for other metering configurations.

PILOT AND DRAIN CONFIGURATION
The VSD*S valves are available with four pilot/drain configurations: internal/internal, internal/external,
external/internal and external/external.
When internal pilot and/or drain are used, the corresponding ‘x’ and ‘y’ ports in the manifold must be
plugged. Pilot pressure must be at least 70 psi (5 bar) greater than the pressure in the ‘T’ line.
It may be desirable to use external pilot when system pressure is subject to wide flucuations. It is required
to use external pilot or internal pilot with a pressure reducing valve when system pressure exceeds 3000
psi (210 bar) for the VSD05*S and VSD07S.

INTERNAL PILOT OPTIONS
PRESSURE REDUCING (Z)
THE PRESSURE REDUCING MODULE IS DESIGNED TO PROTECT THE VALVE FROM PILOT PRESSURES EXCEEDING
3000 PSI (210 BAR).
When the system pressure exceeds 3000 psi (210 bar) the use of the version with external pilot is mandatory,
or alternatively, the version with optional Z internal pilot.
The pressure reducer has fixed adjustment of 430 psi (30 bar). This device is not available for the VSD05*S.
To request this option add the letter “Z” into the internal pilot option box, in the identification code.
BACK PRESSURE VALVE (C70)
The back pressure valve is for valves with internal pilot and B or L spool types where system pressure may
drop below the 70 psi (5 bar) required for pilot operation.
This device is available only for VSD07S and VSD08S.
NOTE: The back pressure valve can’t be used as check because it doesn’t assure the seal.
To request this option add the letters ‘C70’ in the internal pilot options box, in the identification code.
The backpressure valve is also available as a field conversion kit and can be easily mounted in the P port of
the main control valve.
The kit includes 1 check assembly and related seals.

MOUNTING SURFACES
A
LL THE MOUNTING SURFACES REFER TO NFPA T3.5.1 R2-2002 AND ISO 4401:2005 STANDARDS.
The mounting surface standards recommends metric coarse threads. However, subplates are commercially available with UNC threads. Select a
bolt size that matches the threads in the mounting surface.
Dimensional tolerances are ± 0.1 mm (0.004”) for bolt and pin location; ± 0.2 mm (0.008”) for the other quotes.
The minimum depth of the blind hole G where required is 8 mm (0.31 in).

APPLICATION DATA
FLUIDS
All pressure drops shown on these data pages are based on 170 SUS fluid viscosity and 0.87 specific gravity. For any other specific gravity (G1)
the pressure drop (∆P) will be approx. ∆P1 = ∆P (G1/G). See the chart for other viscosities.
Use mineral oil-based hydraulic fluids HL or HM type, according to ISO 6743-4. For these fluids, use NBR seals. For fluids HFDR type (phosphate
esters) use FPM seals (code G). For the use of other kinds of fluid such as HFA, HFB, HFC, please consult our technical department.
Using fluids at temperatures higher than 180 degrees F causes the accelerated degradation of seals as well as degradation of the fluids physical
and chemical properties.
From a safety standpoint, temperatures above 130 degrees F are not recommended.

INSTALLATION
The configurations with centering and offset springs can be mounted in any position without impairing correct
operation; instead, those without springs and with mechanical detent must be mounted with the longitudinal
axis horizontal.
Valves are fixed by means of screws or tie rods on a flat surface with planarity and roughness equal to or
better than those indicated in the relative symbols. If minimum values are not observed, fluid can easily leak
between the valve and support surface.
