As part of the renowned Danfoss EV260B series, this valve utilizes a specialized actuator system to provide infinitely variable control of fluids based on the input signal strength.

This pilot-operated valve is critical for reducing pressure surges and optimizing process efficiency in B2B environments where binary on\/off control is insufficient for maintaining tight tolerances.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Configuration\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe technical architecture of the EV260B 6B is centered on a Normally Closed (NC) functional logic and a pilot-operated proportional diaphragm. The 13.5 mm actuator system is designed to work in conjunction with a proportional controller (such as the Danfoss ECI), which modulates the current to the coil to position the valve plug accurately. The body is forged from high-grade brass, and the internal sealing is constructed from PTFE (Teflon), providing exceptional thermal stability and chemical resistance. This configuration requires a minimum differential pressure of 0.5 bar to initiate diaphragm lift, making it an ideal choice for pressurized \"open\" systems requiring a maximum operating pressure differential of 10 bar (145 psi).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr class=\"firstRow\"\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeature\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eModel\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEV260B 6B (032U8053)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDanfoss\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eParts Program\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEV260B\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFunction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNC (Normally Closed)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOperation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eProportional\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrifice Size\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e6 mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003eG 3\/8 Internal\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSeal Material\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePTFE\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDifferential Pressure\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e0.5 to 10 bar\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAmbient Temp Max\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e50 Celsius\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFluid Group\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1 (Dangerous fluids\/gases)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShipping Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e3.0 kg\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical FAQs\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the primary benefit of the PTFE seal in the 032U8053?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) seal offers superior resistance to high temperatures and aggressive chemical media compared to standard EPDM or FKM seals, ensuring a longer service life in specialized fluid applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes this valve require a specific type of electronic controller?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, to utilize the proportional functionality, the\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEV260B 6B\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003emust be paired with a Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) controller or a Danfoss ECI electronic control unit that converts standard 4-20 mA or 0-10 V signals into the necessary coil current.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat happens if the system pressure falls below 0.5 bar?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a pilot-operated valve, the 032U8053 requires a minimum pressure drop of 0.5 bar (7.25 psi) to function correctly.
