Danfoss 027H2081 ICS3 25-10 Pilot-Operated Servo Valve, 25 mm

Description

ICS3 25-10: a pilot-operated servo valve body with three function-module positions

Danfoss 027H2081 is an ICS3 25-10 pilot-operated servo valve from the ICV Flexline platform. The steel body has 25 mm (1 in) butt-weld connections to ASME B 36.10M Schedule 80, a straightway flow path and a Kv value of 3.5 m3/h in the 25-10 configuration. The top cover accepts three function modules, which turn the valve into a pressure, temperature or solenoid-controlled regulator depending on the pilots you fit.

The printed ratings are a maximum working pressure of 65 bar (943 psig) and a temperature range of -60 to 120 C. The valve has a manual-open spindle, an external pilot-pressure connection (weld nipple, port P2), an internal gauge connection with blind plug and a zinc (TLP) surface coating. UL, EAC and UA approvals are shown.

How an ICS servo valve behaves

The page defines the opening configuration by pressure difference: the valve is closed at 0 bar differential, partially open (proportional) between 0.07 and 0.2 bar, and fully open at 0.2 bar or more. This is the classical servo action, in which a small pilot valve moves the main piston by using the line pressure, so the body can be larger than the pilot could drive directly.

Pilot connection is either parallel (P) or serial (SI-SII), as listed. With a pilot such as a constant pressure pilot, a solenoid pilot or a temperature pilot, the ICS is used as a suction-pressure regulator, a condensing-pressure regulator, a hot-gas valve or a liquid-line shut-off on ammonia and HFC plants.

Selecting pilots and ordering

Order the function modules (pilots) separately: the body alone does not regulate. The ICM, ICS and ICLX accessories and spare parts are listed on the page as a shared platform, so one set of pilots, seals and tools covers all three.

Confirm the 25-10 size code, the pilot configuration, the electrical supply of any solenoid pilot, and the pressure class of your system before ordering. Weld the body per the installation guide, with the internals out, and flush the line.

Other types and sizes from the same Danfoss family that appear in the Danfoss store listing include ICS3 32 (027H3173), ICS3 25-5 (027H2070), ICS3 25-15 (027H2090), ICS3 25-20 (027H2100), ICS3 25-25 (027H2110), ICS3 80 (027H8030). These are listed for orientation only; each has its own datasheet values, so check size, connection and version before ordering.

About brand

Danfoss is the Danish engineering group that makes refrigeration and air-conditioning controls, heating components, variable speed drives and mobile hydraulics. Mads Clausen founded it on 1 September 1933 at his parents' farm in Nordborg on the island of Als, after making his first refrigeration expansion valve in 1932. Nordborg is still the group's headquarters, and Danfoss remains controlled by the Clausen family through the Bitten & Mads Clausen Foundation.

Danfoss company profile

Founded 1 September 1933, Nordborg, Denmark, by Mads Clausen (1905–1966)
First product Thermostatic expansion valve for refrigeration
Headquarters Nordborg, Denmark
Ownership Private; majority controlled by the Bitten & Mads Clausen Foundation and the Clausen family
Size About 42,000 employees (2023)

Milestones

  • 1932–1933: First expansion valve; the company is founded in Nordborg.
  • 1939: 26 employees. By the 10th anniversary in 1943 the company has 179.
  • 1950s: Rapid growth turns Nordborg into a Danfoss town with housing and schools for its workforce.
  • 1968: Danfoss launches its VLT frequency converter, one of the first mass-produced AC drives.
  • 2014: Acquisition of the Finnish drives maker Vacon, now the VACON brand.
  • 2021: Acquisition of Eaton's hydraulics business.

Choosing Danfoss products

For solenoid valves, check the operating principle. A direct-operated valve such as EV210B opens even at 0 bar differential pressure. A servo-operated valve such as EV220B needs a minimum differential (typically about 0.3 bar) to open, while an assisted-lift valve such as EV250B works from 0 bar. Coils are ordered separately, so the voltage on the coil (for example 230 V AC or 24 V DC) must match the control circuit. For drives, the VLT family is split by application: FC 51 Micro Drive for small machines, FC 102 HVAC Drive for fans and pumps in buildings, FC 202 AQUA Drive for water, and FC 302 AutomationDrive for demanding industrial duty.

Where Danfoss products are used

In Oman and the GCC, Danfoss drives run pumps, fans and compressors in district cooling plants, water and wastewater stations, desalination and building HVAC. Danfoss pressure switches, transmitters and solenoid valves are built into chillers, refrigeration plants, boilers and hydraulic systems, and AB-QM valves balance chilled-water circuits in large buildings.

Ordering Danfoss products: what we need

Send the Danfoss code number from the label (for example 032U7115 or 131B0149) or the full drive type code (FC-302P3K0T5...). For drives, add the motor power, supply voltage and any fieldbus option. For valves, add the size, connection, medium and coil voltage. For pressure switches and transmitters, add the range, output and pressure connection.
