Description
Available port sizes are ¾", 1 ½", 2" and 2 ½" pipe threads, depending on flow. EV4 eliminates high inrush currents and do not require
wye-delta switching. According to customers‘ elevator data, valves are factory adjusted, ready for operation and very simple to readjust
if desired. The L1000H Yaskawa drive combined with feedback systems that are designed to compensate elevator speed fluctuations
regardless oil temperature and car load conditions.
Caution: The EV4 valve is to be used only together with Yaskawa L1000H inverter and not as standalone control valve.
EV4 valves include the following features essential for ecient installation and trouble free service:
The BLAIN EV4-vvvf program includes the widest range of vvvf solution oered to the elevator industry for high performance
passenger elevators. Easy to install, EV4‘s are smooth, reliable and precise in operation throughout extreme load and tempera-
ture variations with inbuilt overload protection and dierent energy saving modes. The EV4 system uses the control of L1000H
vvvf drive in the up travel, while down travel is managed by the EV4 valve itself. In this way, the EV4-vvvf solution oers the most
cost-eective and energy-ecient solution.

Caution: Please refer to the detailed installation
and set-up procedure of the EV4 handbook and
L1000H technical manual.
The up direction control is done by the Yaskawa L1000H
inverter. The inverter with the help of its software calcu-
lates the load in the car, read the current oil temperature
through a temperature sensor and process oil and pump
performance data in order to obtain motor speeds for the
nominal, intermediate, inspection and levelling speeds.
After giving the oil type and elevator data a teach run with
empty car is sucient enough for the inverter to self-
learn and configure itself fully automatic during the initial
set-up.

Valves are already adjusted and tested. Check electrical operation before changing valve settings. Test that the correct solenoid is
energised, by removing nut and raising solenoid slightly to feel pull.
Nominal Settings: Adjustments 7&9approx. level with flange face. Two turns in either direction may then be necessary. Adjust-
ments 6&8turn all the way 'in' (clockwise), then 1.5 turns 'out' (c-clockwise). One final turn in either direction may be necessary.
6. Down Acceleration: When solenoids Cand Dare energised, the car will accelerate downwards according to the setting of
adjustment 6. 'In' (clockwise) provides a softer down acceleration, 'out' (c-clockwise) a quicker acceleration.
7. Down Speed: With solenoids Cand Denergised as in 6above, the full down speed of the car is according to the setting of
adjustment 7. 'In' (clockwise) provides a slower down speed, 'out' (c-clockwise) a faster down speed.
8. Down Deceleration: When solenoid Cis de-energised whilst solenoid Dremains energised, the car will decelerate according to
the setting of adjustment 8. 'In' (clockwise) provides a softer deceleration, 'out' (c-clockwise) a quicker deceleration.
Attention: Do not close all the way in! Closing adjustment 8 completely (clockwise) may cause the car to fall on the buers.
9. Down Levelling: With solenoid Cde-energised and solenoid Denergised as in 8above, the car will proceed at its down levelling
speed according to the setting of adjustment 9. 'In' (clockwise) provides a slower, 'out' (c-clockwise) a faster down levelling speed.
Down Stop: When solenoid Dis de-energised with solenoid C remaining de-energised, the car will stop according to the setting
of adjustment 8and no further adjustment will be required.
KS Slack Rope Valve: Solenoids Cand Dmust be de-energised! The KS is adjusted with a 3 mm Allan Key by turning the screw K'in'
for higher pressure and 'out' for lower pressure. With Kturned all the way 'in', then half a turn back out, the unloaded car should
descend when Manual Lowering H is opened. Should the car not descend, Kmust be backed o until the car just begins to
descend, then backed o a further half turn to ensure that with cold oil, the car can be lowered as required.
Warning: Only qualified personnel should adjust or service the EV4 valve and the L1000H drive. Unauthorised
manipulation may result in injury, loss of life or damage to equipment. Prior to servicing internal parts, ensure that
the electrical controller is switched o, cylinder line is closed and residual pressure in the valve is reduced to zero.
M1 Second pressure gauge connection, ½"
Z1 Pressure switch connection, ¼"
Important: Length of ¾" thread on pump
connections should not be longer than 14 mm!
Adjustments pressure relief valve
Valves are already checked for functionality. Check electrical operation before changing inverter settings. Please refer to the EV4
inverter manual for necessary parameter settings.
S Relief Valve: ‚In‘ (clockwise) produces a higher, ‚out‘ (c-clockwise) a lower maximum pressure setting. After turning ‚out‘, open
manual lowering Hfor an instant.
Important: When testing relief valve, do not close ball valve sharply.
