for cleaning during operation (without oil escaping).
Based on many years of experience with industrial appli-
cations using control hydraulics we have decided to equip
the valves with a manual operation mechanism for func-
tion control and for setting-up. The EMG range comprises
servo valves with nominal sizes between NG 6 and NG 100

EMG Automation GmbH specialises in the automation

of continuous production processes in the metal, paper
and plastics industries as well as in the foil and tyre
industries. The company, which was established in 1946,
is a leading provider of electro hydraulic control systems.
Furthermore, EMG provides quality assurance systems
for the manufacturing industry.
Based on the combination of more than 60 years of
experience, the quality of our products and complete
solutions as well as our advisory skills, our customer,
by his trust, makes us the market leader. In close
co-operation with our customers, research facilities and
universities we are permanently searching for innovative
solutions to promote our new and further developments
and therefore to design and form the market as
innovation leader actively.

Function principle:
A torque is produced at the armature by a d.c. control cur-
rent in the exciter windings. The size and direction of this
torque is proportional to the control current and turns the
armature, against the force of the centring springs, from
its neutral position. As a result, the rotary disc fixed on the
same shaft is also rotated; the blind holes in it create a con-
tinuously increasing connecting area between circular duct
sections and consumer connections.
The rotary disc, enclosed by its sealing cover, floats at a
defined leak gap Y1 on an oil film, above the leading edge
sealing surface (figure below).
Screen of rotary disc with standard leak gaps Y1 and Y2
Flushing:
If the leak gap becomes blocked because of excess dirt in
the oil, (recognisable by reducing response sensitivity, in-
creased hysteresis), the fault can be cleared in most cases by
flushing the valve out. For this the manual control must be
carefully disengaged with a screwdriver in order to establish
the absence of the dither signal. Then the flushing screw is
loosened one quarter of one turn (ring spanner SW 19 mm).
By this means throttle opening Y2 opens without its normal
adjustment being altered, and the leak gap is increased to
approximately ten times its normal value. The resulting,
increased oil flow flushes out the impurities in the tank
ducting and the vibration signal can again be felt by the
screwdriver.
Technical features:
Temperature- and pressure-independent zero
point stability
Practically constant dynamics
(almost independent of pressure and drive)
Relatively large control distances, long service
life, low leakage flow
Valve can be cleaned during operation
External mechanical manual control and
performance monitoring
Spring-centred rotary disc
(zero position on power failure)
Standard connections, standard plug
Frontal view of hydraulic manifold block
After the flushing screw has been re-tightened
(approx. 80 Nm), the leak gap set at the factory is
again operative. During the tightening-up process,
the availability of the dither signal is monitored in
order to ensure that the rotary disc is not blocked by a
large particle of dirt.
