Product Overview
The Danfoss EV260B (part number 032U8057) is a direct-operated, two-way proportional solenoid valve engineered for precise, infinitely variable control of liquid and gaseous media in industrial process and hydraulic circuits. As a member of the Danfoss EV260B series, this valve modulates flow or pressure proportionally to the applied coil current, enabling continuous analog regulation rather than simple on/off switching. Its compact brass body, encapsulated coil, and proven seat-and-plunger architecture make it a reliable control element for dosing, mixing, temperature regulation, and pressure modulation duties across process automation and fluid power systems.
