Ex-proof proportional directional valves

direct, without transducer and with positive spool overlap - ATEX, IECEx, EAC, PESO or CULUS

DHZA-A, DKZA-A
 Ex-proof proportional valves direct, without
position transducer and with positive spool
overlap, for open loop directional controls and
not compensated flow regulations.
They are equipped with ex-proof proportional
solenoids certified for safe operations in hazar-
  dous environments with potentially explosive
atmosphere.
Certifications:
• Multicertification ATEX, IECEx EAC and PESO
for gas group II 2G and dust category II 2D
• Multicertification ATEX and IECEx
for gas group I M2 (mining)
• cULUS North American certification
A B
 for gas group C&D
The flameproof enclosure of solenoid prevents
DHZA-A-05* the propagation of accidental internal sparks
or fire to the external environment.
The solenoid is also designed to limit the
 valve body surface temperature within the classified limits.

Cable glands with threaded connections GK-1/2”, 1/2”NPT or M20x1,5 for standard or armoured cables have to be ordered separately,
see tech. table KX800
Note: a Loctite sealant type 545, should be used on the cable gland entry threads

11 OPTIONS

B = Solenoid at side of port A of the main stage

MV = Auxiliary vertical hand levers (only for DHZA)

This option allows to operate the valves in absence of electrical power supply, i.e. during commissioning, maintenance or in case of
emergency.
When the valve is electrically operated the hand lever remains stopped in its rest position
The hand lever execution does not affect the performances of the original valves
Total angle stroke [°deg] ± 28° Lever actuating force [N] 1÷8
Working angle stroke [°deg] ± 15° Lever device weight [g] 880

O = Horizontal cable entrance, to be selected in case of limited vertical space

WP = Manual override protect by metallic cap.

Y = External drain, to be selected if the pressure at T port is higher than the max allowed limits

11.1 Possible combined options: all combination are available
