Abstract - A dynamic non linear model of a commercial proportional pressure valve, type heifer Honeywell EPP3 5-21- U-100-10, is formulated in order to simulate its behavior in time- domain under several operating conditions. The mechatronic design of the valve and its static and dynamic characterktics are analyzed carefully. Then, the modeling of the valve is carried out by taking into account its main internal devices, which are integrated all together inslde the valve in order to aUow the pressure control through an input electric signul. Fin@, some diugrams given by a computer simulation con+ the validity of the proposed dyMmic non linear model for thLr tjpe of proportional valve.

I. INTRODUCTION

The pneumatic proportional pressure valves convert an input

electric signal in outlet pressure. These valves can be used in

several applications, as processes and servo-systems, for

which different static and dynamic performances are

required. Usually, in the first case very narrow time

responses are not required, while high flow capacity can be

necessary. A typical example is given by gate valves with a

position control, which are generally used in petrochemical

and alimentary industries, or for gas network. The

servomechanisms are instead provided of small sizes of

valves with high band-width, which is necessary for force

and torque control. The following analysis is addressed to

these components,

Three-way proportional pressure valves have supply,

exhaust and outlet ports and they can be provided of

different actuation and control systems. In particular, the

actuation system can be composed by two plungers and the

first design of the valve is very similar to standard relief

valves. The pressure acting within a servo-chamber above

the main plunger controls the opening and closing of the

valve. This pressure can be controlled by means of a pair of

two-way modulated digital valves. Usually, an electric

feedback is obtained by a suitable internal pressure sensor.

The effects of main parameters on the characteristics of a

diaphragm type pressure proportional valve were analyzed in

theoretical and experimental way in [ll. A pneumatic

braking system for Parisian metro was modeled in [2], while

a non-linear dynamic model and experimental analysis of a

commercial proportional pressure valve was described in [3].

The dynamic model of a pressure control system was

proposed in [4]. In particular, a second order linear model was formulated for the used proportional pressure valve and
