Load sensing
In load sensing steering systems both the steering system and the working hydraulics can be supplied
with oil from the same pump, using a load sensing pump, also delivers the potential for energy saving.
Load sensing steering units have an extra connection for load sensing (LS), so that a load pressure signal
can be directed via the steering unit to a Danfoss priority valve and/or an LS pump. The load sensing
signal controls the oil flow from the priority valve (and/or the LS pump) to the steering unit. The LS
connection is open to tank when the steering unit is in the neutral position.
Load sensing static
Load sensing static steering units require load sensing static priority valves and/or load sensing static
variable displacement pumps. Load sensing static steering systems have no oil flow in the LS connection
when the steering unit is in neutral position.
Load sensing dynamic
Load sensing dynamic steering units require load sensing dynamic priority valves and/or load sensing
dynamic variable displacement pumps. Load sensing dynamic steering systems have a constant oil flow
in the LS connection in the direction of the steering unit even when the steering unit is in neutral
position.
Reaction
With reaction steering units any external forces acting on the steered wheels result in a corresponding
movement of the steering wheel when the driver is not steering the vehicle.
Non-reaction
With non-reaction steering units there is no corresponding movement of the steering wheel when the
driver is not steering the vehicle

OSPD LS: Steering unit load sensing dynamic with 2 rotary meters and with integrated valve
functions
The OSPD has 2 rotary meters (gear wheel sets). Should the pump supply be lost, only one rotary meter
will be active: OSPD displacement will be low for emergency steering (only one rotary meter active) for
pressure P-T <3 bar. Displacement will be high for pressure P-T >5 bars: both rotary meters are active.

Valve functions in OSPC, OSPF, OSPD and OSPL LS steering units
Pilot pressure relief valve; (P - T, Qp) characteristic
The pilot pressure relief valve protects the steering unit against excessive pressure. The pilot pressure
relief valve in the OSPC LS, OSPF LS, OSPD LS and OSPL LS steering unit together with the priority valve
limit the maximum steering pressure P-T. The pilot pressure relief valve is set at an oil flow to the priority
valve of 25 l/min [6.60 US gal/min].
For OSPC, OSPD and OSPL load sensing dynamic steering units, the setting values are valid at a dynamic
flow of 0.6 l/min [0.16 US gal/min].
For OSPF load sensing dynamic steering units, the setting values are valid at a dynamic flow of 1.1 l/min
[0.29 US gal/min].
Setting tolerance:
</= 170 bar [2465 psi]: rated value +5 bar [72.5 psi].
> 170 bar [2465 psi]: rated value +10 bar [145 psi].

Shock valves
The shock valves protect the steering unit and reduce external forces on the steering cylinder by limiting
the pressure difference from L to T and from R to T.
The shock valves are set at 3 l/min [0.792 US gal/min]
At higher flow pressure peaks may occur.
The shock valves are of the direct acting type, so they react very quickly.
Setting tolerance: rated value +20 bar [290 psi].
Suction valves
The suction valves allow oil suction to avoid cavitation in the steering cylinder. To provide correct
suction, a back pressure valve must be fitted in the tank line from the steering unit.

Generally Danfoss recommend a back pressure of 2 bar [29 psi], but on vehicles with strong self
straightening tendencies and on articulated steered vehicles, we recommend 5-10 bar [72.5 - 145 psi]. For
further advice, please contact the Danfoss Sales Organization.
A connection which incorporates a check valve must be established to allow oil flow to by-pass the back
pressure valve (and filter) from the tank to steering unit. See diagram examples in sub catalogue “General
Steering Components” page 37 - 39.

Check valves
The check valve in the P connection of the steering unit protects the driver against steering wheel jerks.
The check valve prevents oil from flowing backwards into the pump line when steering against a high
pressure on the cylinder side. The pressure drop across the check valve is indicated on the following
graph, which assumes the use of port adapters with 11 mm [0.43 in] minimum bore.

The check valve in the LS line of OSPC LS and OSPD LS dynamic steering units also protects the driver
against steering wheel jerks. The check valve prevents oil from flowing backwards into the LS line to the
priority valve when steering against a high pressure on the cylinder side.
In OSPF LS oil cannot flow backwards into the LS line, look in sub catalogue: “General Steering
Components “ page 26.

Shock valves
The shock valves protect the valve block and steering unit and limit maximum external forces on the
steering cylinder. The shock valves in the valve block limit the maximum pressure drop from L to T and
from R to T.
The shock valves are set at 10 l/min. [2.64 US gal/min].
The shock valves are of the direct acting type, so they react very quickly.
Setting tolerance: rated value +/- 10 bar [145 psi] , ex. 240 [3480 psi] +/- 10 bar [145 psi].

Suction valves
The suction valves ensure oil suction to avoid cavitations in the steering cylinder. To provide correct
suction, a back pressure valve must be fitted in the tank line from the steering unit.
The capacity of the suction valves can be increased by building in a back pressure in the valve block.

Danfoss priority valves are used in steering systems with load sensing steering units. In such systems
steering always has first priority
Load sensing static priority valves
Load sensing static steering units require load sensing static priority valves. Load sensing static steering
systems have no oil flow in the LS connection when the steering unit is in neutral position.
Load sensing dynamic priority valves
Load sensing dynamic steering units require load sensing dynamic priority valves. Load sensing dynamic
steering systems have a constant oil flow in the LS connection from the priority valve to the steering unit
even when the steering unit is in neutral position.
Ports:
P = pump,
CF = controlled flow (priority oil flow),
EF = excess flow,
L = left,
R = right,
T = tank,
LS = load sensing,
PP = pilot pressure
OLSA 40/80
The OLSA 40 and OLSA 80 “flange on” priority valves are used in load sensing steering systems, built onto

The priority valve OLSP 80 is to be used in connection with e.g. Danfoss gear pumps type SNP and
steering units type OSPB LS, OSPC LS, OSPF LS, OSPD LS and OSPU LS in load sensing steering systems,
where maximum oil flow does not exceed 80 l/min [21.7 US gal/min].
OLSP 80 priority valves are to be flanged on gear pumps with outlet ports square flange type 35 (35 mm
pitch diameter of 4x M6 bolt holes for fixing the priority valve on pump).
320 l/min [84.5 USgal/min].
OLS 320
EHPS steering valve has build in priority valve, but for max. pump flow 120 l/min [31.7 USgal/min] In
systems with EHPS and pump flow between 120 l/min [31.7 USgal/min] and 320 l/min [84.5 USgal/min] a
combination of EHPS and OLS 320 gives a good compact solution to reduce hosing and installation cost
compared with stand alone components. For further details of this OLS 320: look in EHPS Steering Valve

the displacement of the steering unit
the pump flow
the application’s requirement for energy optimization, initial steering response time and stability, as
these all govern the selection for control spring pressure
whether the priority valve should have internal PP (Pilot Pressure) or external PP-connection depends
on the pressure drop in the pump line between the priority valve’s CF-port (Controlled Flow) and the
steering unit’s P-port. With normal hose and tube dimensions and less than 5 m distance between
priority valve and steering unit, the immediate choice is normally a priority valve with internal PP.
The following survey lists the code numbers of the priority valves that are the most frequently used in
connection with the above Danfoss steering unit types. All priority valves in the code number tables,
except OLS 160 static, have internal PP connection. OLS 160 static in the code number table all have
external PP connection.

Pressure drop in priority valves
This data comes from measurements on a representative sample of priority valves from production. Oil
with viscosity of 21 mm²/s at 50 °C [102 SUS at 122 °F] was used during measuring. Measurement made
when pressure on the LS connection is zero (steering unit in neutral position). The minimum curves apply
when the pressure on the EF connection is higher than the actual control spring pressure. The curves for
control spring pressure of 4 , 7, 10 or 12 bar [58, 101, 145 or 174 psi] apply when pressure on the EF
connection is zero.

OLS 160 and OLS 320, pilot pressure relief valve (P - T, Qp) characteristics
OLS 160 and OLS 320 with pilot pressure relief valves are used in connection with Danfoss steering units
without pilot pressure relief valve, normally steering unit type OSPL. The pilot pressure relief valve
protects the steering unit against excessive pressure. The pilot pressure relief valve in OLS 160/320
operates with the priority valve spool in the OLS 160/320 to limit the maximum steering pressure P-T
measured across the steering unit ports.
OLS 160:The pilot pressure relief valve is set when an oil flow of 80 l/min [21 US gal/min] is supplied to
OLS 160.
OLS 320:The pilot pressure relief valve is set when an oil flow of 40 l/min [11 US gal/min] is supplied to
OLS 320.
OLS 160 and OLS 320: Setting tolerance: rated value +10 bar [145 psi]

Valve functions in the flow amplifiers
The data below come from measurements on a representative sample of flow amplifiers from production.
Oil with viscosity of 21 mm²/s [102 SUS] at 50 °C [122 °C] was used during measuring.
Priority valve
The priority valve is used in load sensing systems where the same pump supplies oil to both the steering
system and working hydraulics. The steering system always has first priority. Measurements were made
when the pressure on the LS connection is zero (steering unit is in neutral position). The minimum curves
apply when the pressure on the EF connection is higher than the actual control spring pressure. The
curves for control spring pressure of 7 bar [101.5 psi] apply when the pressure on the EF connection is
zero

OSQ pilot pressure relief valve (HP - HT, Qp) characteristic
The pilot pressure relief valve protects the steering valve against excessive pressure. The pilot pressure
relief valve together with the priority valve limit the maximum steering pressure HP-HT.
The pilot pressure relief valve in OSQ is set with an oil flow of 140 l/min [37 US gal/min] supplied to the
HP connection.
For OSQA the setting values are valid for pump flow 140 l/min [37 US gal/min].
For OSQB the setting values are valid for pump flow 240 l/min [63 US gal/min]: the setting is done at 140
l/min [37 US gal/min], but compensated to match 240 l/min [63 US gal/min].
Setting tolerance: rated value +10 bar [+145 psi]. The curves below are valid for rated settings 170 bar
[2466 psi].

Shock valves
The shock valves protect the flow amplifier against shock from external forces on the steering cylinders.
The shock valves in OSQA and OSQB limit the maximum pressure drop from CL to HT and from CR to HT.
The shock valves are set at 10 l/min [2.64 US gal/min].
Setting tolerance: rated value +20 bar [290 psi].
Suction valves
The suction valves ensure oil suction on the side of the steering cylinder pistons where in unfavorable
conditions cavitation might occur. The capacity of the suction valves is increased in OSQB by the built-in
back pressure valve.

Priority valve OLSQ for emergency circuit in OSQB/OLSQ
When under normal steering conditions the stand-by pressure in the main circuit (minimum 7 bar [101.5
psi] priority valve spring in OSQ) overrules the spring pressure in OLSQ (4 bar [58 psi] spring), OLSQ’s
priority valve will pass oil from the emergency steering pump across OLSQ’s P-connection to the flow
amplifier’s HT tank connection.

Danfoss | June 2017 11007611 | BC00000009en-US0701
If the oil supply from the main pump should fail, the stand-by pressure of OSQ’s priority valve in the main
pump circuit disappears and relocates the spool in OLSQ to enable the oil from the emergency steering
pump to enter the pump circuit in the OSQ.
The curve shows the pressure drop from OLSQ’s P-connection to OSQ’s HT-connection with an active
main pump and neutral positioned steering. The curve solely applies to OSQs without any back pressure
valve in the tank line.
