The document discusses proportional electrohydraulics. It describes how proportional valves regulate pressure or flow according to an electronic reference signal. Proportional valves are operated by electronic drivers that regulate electrical current to the valve's solenoid based on the reference signal. This current is converted into a mechanical force that moves the spool to control hydraulic output. Control loops can be open-loop or closed-loop depending on the required accuracy.

Study on a linear relationship between limited pressure difference and coil c...ISA Interchange
On/off solenoid valves with PWM control are widely used in all types of vehicle electro-hydraulic control systems respecting to their desirable properties of reliable, low cost and fast acting. However, it can hardly achieve a linear hydraulic modulation by using on/off valves mainly due to the nonlinear behaviors of valve dynamics and fluid, which affects the control accuracy significantly. In this paper, a linear relationship between limited pressure difference and coil current of an on/off valve in its critical closed state is proposed and illustrated, which has a great potential to be applied to improve hydraulic control performance. The hydraulic braking system of case study is modeled. The linear correspondence between limited pressure difference and coil current of the inlet valve is simulated and further verified experimentally. Based on validated simulation models, the impacts of key parameters are researched. The limited pressure difference affected by environmental temperatures is experimentally studied, and the amended linear relation is given according to the test data.

Wondering if Your Mercedes EIS is at Fault Here’s How to Tell
F001
1. The core of electrohydraulic controls is the proportional valve that
regulates a pressure P or a flow Q according to the reference input
signal (normally ±10 VDC) supplied by the machine CNC. Particularly the
proportional valve must be operated by an electronic driver (see tab.
G001) which regulates a proper electrical current supplied to the valve’s
solenoid according to the reference signal. The solenoid converts the
electrical current into a mechanical force acting the spool against a
return spring: rising of the current produces a corresponding increasing
in the output force and consequent compression of the return spring,
thus the movement of the spool. The proportional valves can be single
stage or piloted, with or without pressure/position transducer.
Proportional valves with transducer provide better regulation accuracy.
In pilot operated executions the proportional pilot valve regulates flow
and pressure acting on the main operated stage.
When electrical failure occurs, return springs restore the neutral position
according to valve configuration, to ensure a fail-safe operation, i.e. to
ensure that in case of absence of reference signal or, generally, in case of electric system breakdown, the system configuration does not
cause damages. Fail-safe can be realized directly by the proportional valve (fail-safe operation intrinsic in valve configuration) or it can be
realized by consequential operation of a group of valves.
Atos valves may be spool type or cartridge execution and can be grouped in three different functional families:
• pressure control valves: relief valves and reducing valves regulate the hydraulic system pressure proportionally to the reference input signal;
• 4-way directional control valves: direct and modulate the flow to an actuator proportionally to the reference input signal. These valves can be
used in open or closed loop control system to determine the direction, speed and acceleration of actuators;
• flow control valves: 2 or 3-way, pressure compensated, to modulate the flow independently to the user loads.
4 PROPORTIONAL VALVES AND DRIVERS
Atos proportional valves are equipped with ZO and ZOR, efficient solenoids (30 W and 40 W) respectively designed for direct-acting valves of
ISO 4401 size 06 and 10 and they are assembled in different options as follows:
ZO(R)-A: without integral transducer, open loop;
ZO(R)-AE, AES: as ZO-A plus integral electronic driver, analog or digital;
ZO(R)-T, -L: with integral LVDT single/double position transducer, closed loop, featuring high static and dynamic performances;
ZO(R)-TE, -TEB, -TES, -LE, -LEB, -LES: as ZO-T, -L plus integral electronic driver, analog or digital
In the new generation of -AE, -TE, -LE valves, the electronic driver is integral to the proportional valves and it is factory preset to ensure fine
functionality plus valve-to-valve interchangeability and to simplify installation wiring and system set-up. Electronics are housed and resin
encapsulated in a metal box to IP67, ensuring antivibration, antishock and weather-proof features; coils are fully plastic encapsulated.

1 WHAT IS PROPORTIONAL ELECTROHYDRAULICS?
F001
Electrohydraulic proportional controls modulate hydraulic parameters according to the electronic reference signals.
They are the ideal interface between hydraulic and electronic systems and are used in open or in closed-loop controls, see section ,ݙ to achie-
ve the fast, smooth and accurate motions required by today’s modern machines and plants.
The electrohydraulic system is a section of the overall automation architecture unit where information, controls, alarms can be transmitted in a
“transparent” way to the centralized electronic control unit and viceversa also via standard fieldbus, see tab. F002 for “Basics for digital elec-
trohydraulics”.
Proportional electrohydraulics provides the following advantages in comparison with the electromechanical systems; intrinsic overload protec-
tion, automatic force adaption, fast operating response, self lubrification of the system, simple stepless variation in speed, energy storage
capability, high power density, forces and torques, long service life and high reliability.
3 CONTROL LOOPS
Today industrial machines are multi-axis machines, more and more electrohydraulically controlled by proportional devices. The axis motion can
be operated in “open loop” or in “closed loop” control, depending to the accuracy level required in the application. In many applications the
motion cycles do not require extreme accuracy, so they are performed in open loop, while each time the application requires the positioning of an
actuator, a closed loop control must be provided.

Fig 2: Electrohydraulic axes: a basic block diagrams
OPEN LOOP MOTION CONTROL
CLOSED LOOP MOTION CONTROL
Axis control is provided through the supply of a reference input signal to the driver of
the proportional valve.
There is no feedback of the valve’s regulated hydraulic parameter.
The accuracy of the open loop controls is strictly dependent of the good quality of the
hydraulic system and particularly of the proportional valve and of the relevant driver.
Axis control is provided through the supply of an input reference signal to a clo-
sed loop axis controller which receive the feedback signal from the actuator tran-
sducer. The controller compares the two signals and the resulting error is then
processed to the proportional valve, in order to align its regulation to the PID con-
trol loop requirements.
The accuracy of the closed loop controls is much better respect to the open loop
ones and it is less influenced by the external environmental disturbances, thanks
to the presence of the feedback.
Anyway the best is the overall quality of the hydraulic system, the best is the
accuracy of the axis control.
