The electronic controllers offered below gives the user the ability to tailor the application to their customers requirements and without specialized training while offering the industries most robust packaging.  These units are designated as "Application Specific" which means they offer a cost effective, flexible but focused dedicated solutions to a common issue, set-up, operation and getting your application from the drawing board to your customer in record time.

 

Hydraulic Fan System Controllers such as the HFS controls a hydraulically driven fan system.  The HFS controller accepts three thermistor and two digital inputs and provides a PWM output to control the proportional valve of the fan drive.  The HFS-2 adds the reverse or purge feature to the HFS.  And the new HFS-J has the added feature of J1939 CANbus communication.  For applications requiring full programmability, (2) dual coil PWM outputs and J1939 communication, please see our new HFS-J2 programmable controller.

 

Hydraulic Generator Controller (HGC) is used to regulate the frequency output of an AC generator.  By monitoring the output signal of a generator, the controller will drive a proportional valve’s solenoid to reach and maintain the set-point frequency. 

 

Power-Line (PLD) - The universal single or dual coil PWM driver to stock for your open loop amplifier, electronic HP limiter and closed loop speed control applications.

√ Standard open loop proportional driver

√ RPM Regulator Anti-Stall/ HP Limiting Controller

√ Closed Loop Control
 

The HAU series valve driver provides precise control of a single coil proportional valve and enables the user to add ramping and/or dither to minimize stiction and hysteresis of the valve.  The HAD series valve driver is the same as the HAU, but drives a dual coil proportional valve.  The LCU, a single coil proportional valve driver tailored for use on low current EDC valves such as Sauer-Danfoss™ 90 series.

 

The HDU single coil and HDD dual coil PWM valve driver has been designed specifically to be an Apitech/Parker VPL compatible Valve driver.

The DVC module family is user programmable with combinations of modules able to support a wide range of hydraulic control applications. The DVC5, DVC7 and DVC10 are the master controllers and their flexible hardware and software allow them to run many hydraulic control applications as a single module. The DVC5/7/10 and all DVC expansion modules are packaged in small rugged enclosures. All connectors are sealed and each module is encapsulated to withstand extreme conditions in harsh operating environments. The hardened enclosures allow you to locate the DVC modules near the sensors, valves, etc. they will control. This can greatly minimize the amount of cabling in your system and significantly lower your costs... read more
