PVG 32 with open center PVP (fixed displ. pump) • PVB with flow control spool
When the pump is started and the main spools in the individual basic modules (11) are in the neutral
position, oil flows from the pump, through connection P, across the pressure adjustment spool (6) to
tank. The oil flow led across the pressure adjustment spool determines the pump pressure (stand-by
pressure).
When one or more of the main spools are actuated, the highest load pressure is fed through the shuttle
valve circuit (10) to the spring chamber behind the pressure adjustment spool (6), and completely or
partially closes the connection to tank to maintain pump pressure.
Pump pressure is applied to the right-hand side of the pressure adjustment spool (6).
The pressure relief valve (1) will open should the load pressure exceed the set value, diverting pump flow
back to tank.
In a pressure-compensated basic module the compensator (14) maintains a constant pressure drop
across the main spool – both when the load changes and when a module with a higher load pressure is
actuated.
With a non pressure-compensated basic module incorporating a load drop check valve (18) in channel P,
the check valve prevents return oil flow.
The basic module can be supplied without the load drop check valve in channel P for functions with over-
center valves.
The shock valves PVLP (13) with fixed setting and the suction valves PVLA (17) on ports A and B are used
for the protection of the individual working function against overload and/or cavitation.

An adjustable LS pressure limiting valve (12) can be built into the A and B ports of pressure-compensated
basic modules to limit the pressure from the individual working functions. Please see the sectional
drawingPVG 32 sectional view on page 8 below for better understanding of this example.
The LS pressure limiting valves save energy compared with the shock valves PVLP:
with PVLP all the oil flow to the working function will be led across the combined shock and suction
valves to tank if the pressure exceeds the fixed setting.
with LS pressure limiting valves an oil flow of about 2 l/min [0.5 US gal/min] will be led across the LS
pressure limiting valve to tank if the pressure exceeds the valve setting.
PVG 32 with closed center PVP (variable displ. pump) • PVB with flow control spool
In the closed center version of PVP an orifice (5) and a plug (7) have been fitted instead of the plug (4).
This means that the pressure adjustment spool (6) will only open to tank when the pressure in channel P
exceeds the set value of the pressure relief valve (1).
In load sensing systems the load pressure is led to the pump control via the LS connection (8).
In the neutral position the pump load sense control sets the displacement so that leakage in the system is
compensated, to maintain the set stand-by pressure.
When a main spool is actuated the pump load sense control will adjust the displacement so that the set
differential pressure (margin) between P and LS is maintained.
The pressure relief valve (1) in PVP should be set at a pressure of approx. 30 bar [435 psi] above maximum
system pressure (set on the pump or external pressure relief valve).

Load sensing for variable displ. pump supply
The pump receives fluid directly from the reservoir through the inlet line. A screen in the inlet line
protects the pump from large contaminants.
The pump outlet feeds directional control valves such as PVG-32, hydraulic integrated circuits (HIC), and
other types of control valves.
The PVG valve directs and controls pump flow to cylinders, motors and other work functions. A heat
exchanger cools the fluid returning from the valve. A filter cleans the fluid before it returns to the
reservoir.
Flow in the circuit determines the speed of the actuators. The position of the PVG valve spool determines
the flow demand. A hydraulic pressure signal (LS signal) communicates demand to the pump control.
The pump control monitors the pressure differential between pump outlet and the LS signal, and
regulates servo pressure to control the swashplate angle. Swashplate angle determines pump flow.
Actuator load determines system pressure. The pump control monitors system pressure and will decrease
the swashplate angle to reduce flow if system pressure reaches the pump control setting.
A secondary system relief valve in the PVG valve acts as a back-up to control system pressure.

All makes and all types of control valves (incl. proportional valves) can fail, thus the necessary protection
against the serious consequences of function failure should always be built into the system. For each
application an assessment should be made for the consequences of pressure failure and uncontrolled or
blocked movements.
To determine the degree of protection that is required to be built into the application, system tools such
an FMEA (Failure Mode and Effect Analysis) and Hazard and Risk Analysis can be used.
FMEA – IEC EN 61508
FMEA (Failure Mode and Effect Analysis) is a tool used for analyzing potential risks. This analytical
technique is utilized to define, identify, and prioritize the elimination or reduction of known and/or
potential failures from a given system before it is released for production. Please refer to IEC FMEA
Standard 61508.
Hazard and risk analysis ISO 12100-1 / 14121
This analysis is a tool used in new applications as it will indicate whether there are special safety
considerations to be met according to the machine directives EN 13849. Dependent on the determined
levels conformity this analysis will detirmine if any extra requirements for the product design,
development process, production process or maintenance, i.e. the complete product life cycle.
W
Warning
All makes/brands and types of directional control valves – inclusive proportional valves – can fail and
cause serious damage. It is therefore important to analyze all aspects of the application.
Because the proportional valves are used in many different operation conditions and applications,
the manufacturer of the application is alone responsible for making the final selection of the products –
and assuring that all performance, safety and warning requirements of the application are met.
The process of choosing the control system – and safety levels – is governed by the machine directives
EN 13849 (Safety related requirements for control systems).

Load sensing controls
The LS control matches system requirements for both pressure and flow in the circuit regardless of the
working pressure. Used with a closed center control valve, the pump remains in low-pressure standby
mode with zero flow until the valve is opened. The LS setting determines standby pressure.
Typical operating curve
Load sensing circuit
P101 967
Most load sensing systems use parallel, closed center, control valves with special porting that allows the
highest work function pressure (LS signal) to feed back to the LS control.
Margin pressure is the difference between system pressure and the LS signal pressure. The LS control
monitors margin pressure to read system demand. A drop in margin pressure means the system needs
more flow. A rise in margin pressure tells the LS control to decrease flow.
LS control with bleed orifice (do not use with PVG valves)
The load sense signal line requires a bleed orifice to prevent high-pressure lockup of the pump control.
Most load-sensing control valves include this orifice. An optional internal bleed orifice is available, for use
with control valves that do not internally bleed the LS signal to tank.
Integral PC function
The LS control also performs as a PC control, decreasing pump flow when system pressure reaches the PC
setting. The pressure compensating function has priority over the load sensing function.
For additional system protection, install a relief valve in the pump outlet line.
Load sensing system characteristics:
Variable pressure and flow
Low pressure standby mode when flow is not needed
System flow adjusted to meet system requirements
Lower torque requirements during engine start-up
Single pump can supply flow and regulate pressure for multiple circuits
Quick response to system flow and pressure requirements
Remote pressure compensated controls
The remote PC control is a two-stage control that allows multiple PC settings. Remote PC controls are
commonly used in applications requiring low and high pressure PC operation.

PC setting
Remote PC setting
Closed center circuit with remote PC
P101 966
The remote PC control uses a pilot line connected to an external hydraulic valve. The external valve
changes pressure in the pilot line, causing the PC control to operate at a lower pressure. When the pilot
line is vented to reservoir, the pump maintains pressure at the load sense setting.
When pilot flow is blocked, the pump maintains pressure at the PC setting. An on-off solenoid valve can
be used in the pilot line to create a low-pressure standby mode. A proportional solenoid valve, coupled
with a microprocessor control, can produce an infinite range of operating pressures between the low
pressure standby setting and the PC setting.
Size the external valve and plumbing for a pilot flow of 3.8 l/min [1 US gal/min]. For additional system
protection, install a relief valve in the pump outlet line.
Remote pressure compensated system characteristics:
Constant pressure and variable flow
High or low pressure standby mode when flow is not needed
System flow adjusts to meet system requirements
Single pump can provide flow to multiple work functions
Quick response to system flow and pressure requirements
Typical applications for remote pressure compensated systems:
Modulating fan drives
Anti-stall control with engine speed feedback
Front wheel assist
Road rollers
Combine harvesters
Wood chippers
PVG 32 main spool with pressure compensated control
The PC control maintains constant system pressure in the hydraulic circuit by varying the output flow of
the pump. Used with a closed center control valve, the pump remains in high pressure standby mode at
the PC setting with zero flow until the function is actuated.

PC setting
Simple closed center circuit
P101 965
Once the closed center valve is opened, the PC control senses the immediate drop in system pressure
and increases pump flow by increasing the swashplate angle.
The pump continues to increase flow until system pressure reaches the PC setting.
If system pressure exceeds the PC setting, the PC control reduces the swashplate angle to maintain
system pressure by reducing flow. The PC control continues to monitor system pressure and changes
swashplate angle to match the output flow with the work function pressure requirements.
If the demand for flow exceeds the capacity of the pump, the PC control directs the pump to maximum
displacement. In this condition, actual system pressure depends on the actuator load.
For additional system protection, install a relief valve in the pump outlet line.

PVPC adapter for external pilot oil supply
PVPC with check valve for open center PVP
PVPC with check valve is used in systems where it is necessary to operate the PVG 32 valve by means of
the electrical remote control without pump flow. When the external solenoid valve is opened, oil from
the pressure side of the cylinder is fed via the PVPC through the pressure reducing valve to act as the
pilot supply for the electrical actuators. This means that a load can be lowered by means of the remote
control lever without starting the pump.
The built-in check valve prevents the oil from flowing via the pressure adjustment spool to tank. With the
pump functioning normally the external solenoid valve is closed to ensure that the load is not lowered

due to the pilot supply oil flow requirement of approximately 1 l/min [0.25 US gal/min]. With closed
center PVP the external pilot oil supply can be connected to the pressure gauge connection without the
use of a PVPC plug.

PVPC without check valve for open or closed center PVP
PVPC without check valve is used in systems where it is necessary to supply the PVG 32 valve with oil
from a manually operated emergency pump without directing oil flow to the pilot oil supply (oil
consumption about 0.5 l/min) [0.13 US gal/min].
When the main pump is working normally, the oil is directed through the PVPC plug via the pressure
reduction valve to the electrical actuators.

When the main pump flow fails, the external shuttle valve ensures that the oil flow from the manually
operated emergency pump is used to pilot open the over center valve and lower the load. The load can
only be lowered using the mechanical operating lever of the PVG 32 valve.

PVMR, friction detent
The friction detent PVMR allows the directional spool to
be held in any position, resulting in infinitely variable,
reversible, pressure compensated flow.
This can be sustained indefinitely without having to
continue to hold the mechanical lever.
Friction detent spool position may be affected by high
differential actuator flow forces and system vibration
resulting in work function flow reduction.

PVBS, main spools for flow control (standard)
When using standard flow control spools, the pump pressure is determined by the highest load pressure.
This is done either via the pressure adjustment spool in open center PVP (fixed displacement pumps) or
via the pump control (variable displacement pumps).
In this way the pump pressure will always correspond to the load pressure plus the stand-by pressure of
the pressure adjustment spool or the pump control. This will normally give optimum and stable
adjustment of the oil flow.
PVBS, main spools for flow control (linear characteristic)
PVBS main spools with linear characteristic have less dead band than standard spools and a proportional
ratio between control signal and oil flow in the range beyond the dead band. PVBS with linear
characteristic must never be used together with PVEM electrical actuators.
The interaction between the small dead band of the spools and the hysteresis of the PVEM actuator of
20% involves a risk of building up a LS pressure in neutral position.

In a few systems load sensing pump pressure may result in unstable adjustment of the oil flow and a
tendency towards system hunting.
This may be the case with working functions that have a large moment of inertia or over-center valves. In
such systems main spools for pressure control can be advantageous.
PVBS, main spools for pressure control
The spools are designed in such a way that the pump pressure is controlled by the spool travel. The main
spool must be displaced until the pump pressure just exceeds the load pressure before the working
function is applied. If the main spool is held in this position, the pump pressure will remain constant –
even if the load pressure changes – giving a stable system.
The use of pressure control spools, however, also means that:
the oil flow is load dependent
the dead band is load dependent
the pump pressure can exceed the load pressure by more than is usual
the pressure drop across main spool varies (energy consumption)
Due to these factors it is recommended that pressure control spools are only used when it is known for
certain that problems with stability will arise or already have arisen, and in applications where constant
pressure is needed e.g. drill holding.
Background
Instability in load sense control systems in certain applications with oscillations in the range of 1/2 - 2 Hz
can cause severe instability problems while trying to control functions in an application.
Critical applications are usually related to functions with an important inertia torque and/or functions
with secondarily fitted pressure controlled components e.g. over-center valves.
Examples:
a slewing function
main lifting/lowering function of a crane
The problem usually manifests itself in prolonged oscillation phenomena (Fig. 1), in a relatively constant
sequence of oscillations (Fig. 2) or in the worst case in an amplified sequence of oscillations (Fig. 3).

To control the oscillation phenomena the "pressure control spool" was developed and is a patented
system which can minimize most of the oscillation issues.
Principle
The idea was to create a system operating independently of a constantly changing load pressure.
Therefore, we changed the well-known LS principle (Fig. 4), so that compensated pump pressure is part
of the LS system (Fig. 5) after the pressure compensator and before the metering range of the main spool.
Upon actuation of the spool, it will be led via a fixed and a variable orifice.

The opening area of the variable orifice is at maximum at
initial actuation and 0 at full stroke of the spool and then
the pressure created between the two orifices is led into
the LS system in the usual way.
In this way the pump pressure is built up depending on
the spool travel, e.g. the spool will then have to be
stroked to a position that the pump pressure is higher
than the actual load pressure to make the oil flow from
PA/B.
When the load changes for a fixed spool position the flow
to for the function will also change.
The valve section is now a load-dependent valve, but
ensuring a constant pump pressure which is important in
obtaining a stable function.
Pump pressure vs. spool travel curve
Application
Pressure controlled spools should in principle only be used when you have stability issues. Typical
applications on a crane:
Lifting/lowering movement
Slewing movement with cylinders
For the main lifting/lowering function on a crane it is recommended to fit a "half" pressure control
spool. This means that the spool is designed with a normal flow control on the lifting port and
pressure control connected to the port where the pilot signal to the over-center valve is acting. You
will thus maintain a load-independent lifting movement and achieve a stable but load-depending
lowering movement.
As the load pressure on slewing movements is usually steady - irrespective of the crane being loaded
or not – it will be advantageous to use a "full" pressure control spool for A and B port.
In both cases we recommend the use of a basic valve, PVB, with pressure compensator. The pressure
compensator will ensure the individual load-independency between the basic valves.
It is further recommended to use the LS pressure relief valves as not only will they ensure individual
pressure limitation but also make it possible to adjust the maximum oil flow to the function.
It is not recommended to use shock valves as pressure limiting valves in connection with pressure control
spools.
Sizing
The size of "half" (e.g: P - A = flow control P - B pressure control) pressure control spools is determined on
basis of max. flow demand on the lifting port. If e.g. a max. pressure compensated flow of 65 l/min for the
lifting movement, you choose a 65 L/min spool (size D). The metering characteristic has then a given size.
As it is often requested to limit the use of the crane boom for downward push/force mode and the LS

pressure limitation can be used. It will appear from the characteristics enclosed what effect a pressure
limitation, P
LS
will have on max. flow on the lowering port.
The size for a "full" pressure control spool is determined on basis of known load pressure, P
LS
max, and
requested max. flow.
It will appear from the characteristics enclosed that if the load PLS is low and the pump pressure, P
p
, is
high as a result of max. stroked spool you will get a large flow.
If P
LS
is approaching PLS max. the flow will be reduced and the dead band increased. Max. oil flow can be
reduced by approx. 50% without limiting max. pressure.
The reduction is made by limiting the spool travel from 7 mm to 5.5 mm.
Limitation
If a pressure controlled spool is chosen for stability reasons consideration should be made to features
related to the pressure control principle.
Deadband will change according to the load conditions and the valve section will become load-
dependent and that the pump pressure may exceed the load pressure.
With all of the above in mind, a “pressure controlled spool” will minimize oscillation and obtain a stable
function that can be controlled smooth and precise.
PVPX, electrical LS unloading valve
PVPX is a solenoid LS unloading valve. PVPX is fitted into the pump side module enabling a connection to
be made between the LS and the tank lines. Thus the LS signal can be relieved to tank by means of an
electric signal.
For a PVP pump side module in open center version the relief to tank of the LS signal means that the
pressure in the system is reduced to the sum of the tank port pressure plus the neutral flow pressure for
the pump side module.
For a PVP pump side module in closed center version the relief to tank of the LS signal means that the
pressure is reduced to the sum of the tank port pressure for the pump side module plus the stand-by
pressure of the pump.

Electrical control of PVG
Valve actuation with electrical actuators has been supported by Danfoss for a long time. The actuation
can be controlled directly by joystick, by a PLUS+1® controller or by a broad range of third part
controllers. The actuator controls the spool by building up pilot oil pressure on the end of the spool. For
the PVE a pilot oil pressure between 10 and 15 bar is used. For the PVHC a pilot oil pressure between 20
and 25 bar is used.

PVLP, shock and PVLA, suction valves
PVLP is set at an oil flow of 10 l/min [2.6 US gal/min]. The shock valve PVLP is designed to absorb shock
effects. Consequently, it should not be used as a pressure relief valve.
If the working function requires the use of a pressure relief valve, a PVB basic module with built-in LS

Oil
The main duty of the oil in a hydraulic system is to transfer energy. It must also lubricate the moving parts
in hydraulic components, protect them against corrosion, and transport dirt particles and heat out of the
system. It is therefore important to choose the correct oil with the correct additives. This gives normal
operation and long working life.
Mineral oil
For systems with PVG 32 valves Danfoss recommends the use of mineral-based hydraulic oil containing
additives: Type HLP (DIN 51524) or HM (ISO 6743/4).
Non-flammable fluids
Phosphate-esters (HFDR fluids) can be used without special precautions. However, dynamic seals must be
replaced with FPM (Viton) seals. Please contact the Danfoss Sales Organization if the PVG 32 valve is to be
used with phosphate-esters.
The following fluids should only be used according to agreement with the Danfoss Sales Organization
for:
Water-glycol mixtures (HFC fluids)
Water-oil emulsions (HFB fluids)
Oil-water emulsions (HFAE fluids)
Particle content, degree of contamination
Biodegradable oils
PVG 32 valves can be used in systems with rapeseed oil. The use of rapeseed oil is conditioned by:
complying with the demands on viscosity, water content, temperature and filtering etc. (see chapters
below and technical data).
adapting the operating conditions to the directions of the oil supplier.
Before using other biodegradable fluids, please consult the Danfoss organization. Oil filtration must
prevent particle content from exceeding an acceptable level, i.e., an acceptable degree of contamination.
Maximum contamination for PVG 32 is 23/19/16 (see ISO 4406. Calibration in accordance with the ACFTD
method). In our experience a degree of contamination of 23/19/16 can be maintained by using a filter
fineness as described in the next section.
For more information, please see the Danfoss literature:
Design Guidelines for Hydraulic Fluid Cleanliness Technical Information, 520L0467
Hydraulic Fluids and Lubricants Technical Information, 521L0463
Experience with Biodegradable Hydraulic Fluids Technical Information, 521L0465.
Filtration
Effective filtration is the most important precondition in ensuring that a hydraulic system performs
reliably and has a long working life. Filter manufacturers issue instructions and recommendations. It is
advisable to follow these.
System filters
Where demands on safety and reliability are very high a pressure filter with bypass and indicator is
recommended. Experience shows that a 10 µm nominal filter (or finer) or a 20 µm absolute filter (or finer)
is suitable. It is our experience that a return filter is adequate in a purely mechanically operated valve
system. The fineness of a pressure filter must be selected as described by the filter manufacturer so that a
particle level of 23/19/16 is not exceeded. The filter must be fitted with pressure gauge or dirt indicator to
make it possible to check the condition of the filter. In systems with differential cylinders or accumulators

the return filter must be sized to suit the max. return oil flow. Pressure filters must be fitted to suit max.
pump oil flow.
Internal filters
The filters built into PVG 32 are not intended to filter the system but to protect important components
against large particles. Such particles can appear in the system as a result of pump damage, hose fracture,
use of quick-couplings, filter damage, starting up, contamination, etc. The filter in the electrical actuator
PVE protecting the solenoid valves has a mesh of 150 µm. Bursting pressure drop for internal filters is 25
bar [360 psi].

The angle of the handle is determined by which side of the handle that is mount towards the base. If a
22.5° angle is needed the "dot" on the handle is not visible. If 37.5° is needed the dot should be visible.
Surface treatment
The PVG valve has as standard, an untreated surface. In certain applications, depend on different factors,
such as: salty environment, large temperature changes, high humidity, rust can develope on the surface.
This will not affect the performance of the PVG valve group. To prevent/reduce rust development,
Danfoss recommend the PVG valve group to be painted. Rust on the surface is not seen as a valid
complaint issue, neither on painted or unpainted PVG valve groups.

The form can be obtained from the Danfoss Sales Organization. An order form for PVG 32 hydraulic valve
is shown on the page PVG 32 order specification.
Both the module selection chart on the previous pages and the order form are divided into fields 0,
1-1-12, 13, 14, 15, a, b, and c.
Each module has its own field:
0:

15: Assembly kit PVAS
Please state:
Code numbers of all modules required
Required setting (P) for pump side module
Required setting of LS
A/B
pressure limiting valves, see pressure setting guidance below.
Standard and option assembly
The PVG 32 valve group is assembled the way the module selection chart shows if the code number for
PVM is written in field 'a', and the code number for PVMD, PVE or PVH in field 'c'.
The valve group is assembled so that the mechanical actuator is mounted on the opposite end of the
basic module, if the code number for PVM is written in field 'c' of the order form and the code numbers
for PVMD, PVE or PVH in field 'a'.
Reordering
The space at the top right-hand corner of the form is for Danfoss to fill in. The code number for the whole
of the specified valve group (PVG No.) is entered here.
In the event of a repeat order all you have to do is enter the number Danfoss has given on the initial
confirmation of order.
Pressure setting limits
The maximum setting pressure for the pressure limiting valves LS
A
or LS
B
depends on the chosen
pressure setting for shock valve PVLP. The maximum values recommended to avoid interaction can be
read in the following table.
