Proportional Valve Controller-PCB Only-: Electronic Controls

This document provides information about an electronic proportional valve controller printed circuit board. It can control proportional valves with a 0-10 VDC input signal and outputs proportional control signals to valve solenoids. The controller has adjustable settings for functions like minimum and maximum current, ramp rates, and dither frequency and amplitude.

ELECTRONIC CONTROLS

Proportional Valve Controller—PCB Only—


DESCRIPTION 0–10 VDC Input
A printed circuit board-style (PCB) control amplifier for controlling HydraForce
proportional valves. Remote mounting in a protected enclosure is required.
OPERATION
This control module uses closed-loop current control with superimposed dither to
supply a proportional valve solenoid with a proportional control signal. The input
signal to this controller can be from a 0–10 VDC source.
FEATURES
• Adjustments and connections clearly labeled.
• LED indication of output power level, input level and power on/off.
• One unit covers supply voltages from 9 to 32 VDC.
• No internal fuses; circuit limits current electronically.
• Short circuit proof and reverse polarity protected.
• Can be disconnected from coil when powered.
• Maximum current adjustment does not affect minimum current setting.
• Independent ramp adjustments.
• Filter eliminates electrical noise.
• Dither frequency and amplitude are adjustable for maximum valve performance.
