BLAIN EV100 Elevator Control Valves
The BLAIN EV 100 program includes the widest range of options offered to the elevator
industry for high performance passenger service. Easy to install, EV 100’s are smooth,
reliable and precise in operation throughout extreme load and temperature variations.
Description
Available port sizes are ¾”, 1 ½”, 2” and 2 ½” pipe threads, depending on flow. EV 100‘s start on less
than minimum load and can be used for across the line or wye-delta starting. According to customers‘
information, valves are factory adjusted ready for operation and very simple to readjust if so desired.
The patented up levelling system combined with compensated pilot control ensure stability of elevator
operation and accuracy of stopping independent of wide temperature variations.
EV 100 valves include the following features essential to efficient installation and trouble free service:
Simple Responsive Adjustment Self Cleaning Pilot Line Filters
Temperature and Pressure Compensation Self Cleaning Main Line Filter (Z-T)
Solenoid with Connecting Cables Built-in Turbulence Suppressors
Pressure Gauge and Shut Off Cock 70 HRc Rockwell Hardened Bore Surfaces
Self Closing Manual Lowering 100% Continuous Duty Solenoids

Warning: Only qualified personell should adjust or service valves. Unauthorised manipulation may result in injury,
loss of life or damage to equipment. Prior to servicing internal parts, ensure that the electrical power is switched off,
cylinder line is closed and residual pressure in the valve is reduced to zero.
Adjustments 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 slighty to feel pull.
Nominal Settings: Adjustments 1 & 4 approx. level with flange faces. Up to two turns in either
direction may then be necessary. Adjustments 2, 3 & 5 all the way ‘in’ (clockwise) then two turns ‘out’
(c-clockwise). A small final adjustment may be necessary.
EV 0
1. By Pass: When the pump is started, the unloaded car should remain stationary at the floor for a period of 1
to 2 seconds before starting upwards. The length of this delay is determined by the setting of adjustment 1.
‘In’ (clockwise) shortens the delay, ‘out’ (c-clockwise) lengthens the delay.
2. Up Acceleration: With the pump running, the car will accelerate according to the setting of adjustment 2.
‘In’ (clockwise) provides a softer acceleration, ‘out’ (c-clockwise) a quicker acceleration.
Up Stop: The pump-motor is de-energised. There is no adjustment.
Alternative Up Stop with Over-travel: The motor is de-energised at floor level. Through the flywheelaction
of the pump-motor drive the car will travel to just above floor level. In overtravelling the floor, down levelling
solenoid D is energised, lowering the car smoothly back down to floor level where D is de-energised.
S Relief Valve: ‘In’ (clockwise) produces a higher, ‘out’ (c-clockwise) a lower maximum pressure setting. After
turning ‘out’, open manual lowering H for an instant.
Important: When testing relief valve, do not close ball valve sharply.
EV 1
1. By Pass: When the pump is started and solenoid A energised, the unloaded car should remain stationary at
the floor for a period of 1 to 2 seconds before starting upwards. The length of this delay is determined by the
setting of adjustment 1. ‘In’ (clockwise) shortens the delay, ‘out’ (c-clockwise) lengthens the delay.
2. Up Acceleration: With the pump running and solenoid A energised as in 1, the car will accelerate according
to the setting of adjustment 2. ‘In’ (clockwise) provides a softer acceleration, ‘out’ (c-clockwise) a quicker
acceleration.
5. Up Stop: At fl oor level, solenoid A is de-energised. Through a time relay the pump should run approx. ½
second longer to allow the car to stop smoothly by valve operation according to the setting of adjustment 5.
‘In’ (clockwise) provides a softer stop, ‘out’ (c-clockwise) a quicker stop.
Alternative Up Stop: At relatively higher speeds, the car will travel to just above fl oor level. In overtravelling
the floor, down levelling solenoid D is energised, lowering the car smoothly back down to fl oor level where D
is de-energised.
S Relief Valve: ‘In’ (clockwise) produces a higher, ‘out’ (c-clockwise) a lower maximum pressure setting. After
turning ‘out’, open manual lowering H for an instant.
Important: When testing relief valve, do not close ball valve sharply.

EV 10
1. By Pass: When the pump is started and solenoid B energised, the unloaded car should remain stationary at
the floor for a period of 1 to 2 seconds before starting upwards. The length of this delay is determined by the
setting of adjustment 1. ‘In’ (clockwise) shortens the delay, ‘out’ (c-clockwise) lengthens the delay.
2. Up Acceleration: With the pump running and solenoid B energised as in 1, the car will accelerate according
to the setting of adjustment 2. ‘In’ (clockwise) provides a softer acceleration, ‘out’ (c-clockwise) a quicker
acceleration.
3. Up Deceleration: When solenoid B is de-energised, the car will decelerate according to the setting of
adjustment 3. ‘In’ (clockwise) provides a softer deceleration, ‘out’ (c-clockwise) a quicker deceleration.
4. Up Levelling: With solenoid B de-energised as in 3, the car will proceed at its levelling speed according to
the setting of adjustment 4. ‘In’ (clockwise) provides a slower, ‘out’ (c-clockwise) a faster up levelling.
Up stop: The pump-motor is de-energised. There is no adjustment.
S Relief Valve: ‘In’ (clockwise) produces a higher, ‘out’ (c-clockwise) a lower maximum pressure setting. After
turning ‘out’, open manual lowering H for an instant.
Important: When testing relief valve, do not close ball valve sharply.
EV 100
1. By Pass: When the pump is started, and solenoids A and B energised, the unloaded car should remain
stationary at the floor for a period of 1 to 2 seconds before starting upwards. The length of this delay is
determined by the setting of adjustment 1. ‘In’ (clockwise) shortens the delay, ‘out’ (c-clockwise) lengthens
the delay.
2. Up Acceleration: With the pump running and solenoids A and B energised as in 1, the car will accelerate
according to the setting of adjustment 2. ‘In’ (clockwise) provides a softer acceleration, ‘out’ (c-clockwise) a
quicker acceleration.
3. Up Deceleration: When solenoid B is de-energised, whilst solenoid A remains energised, the car will
decelerate according to the setting of adjustment 3. ‘In’ (clockwise) provides a softer deceleration, ‘out’
(c-clockwise) a quicker deceleration.
4. Up Levelling: With solenoid A energised and solenoid B de-energised as in 3., the car will proceed at its
levelling speed according to the setting of adjustment 4. ‘In’ (clockwise) provides a slower, ‘out’ (c-clockwise)
a faster up levelling.
5. Up Stop: At floor level, solenoid A is de-energised with solenoid B remaining de-energised. Through a time
relay the pump should run approx. ½ second longer to allow the car to stop smoothly by valve operation
according to the setting of adjustment 5. ‘In’ (clockwise) provides a softer stop, ‘out’ (c-clockwise) a quicker
stop.
S Relief Valve: ‘In’ (clockwise) produces a higher, ‘out’ (c-clockwise) a lower maximum pressure setting. After
