Transfer of Mean Time to Failure (MTTF) data for the given product from Danfoss to the appropriate party.
This Mean Time to Failure (MTTF) data has been compiled by the Business Area engineering team
responsible. These are professionals at Danfoss, who have the authority and technical knowledge to
calculate the MTTF Data for this product based on the standards set in place by both the industry and/or
Danfoss.
The purpose of this document is to assist in the transfer of MTTF data for the given product from Danfoss
to the appropriate party in a way which will result in a clear understanding and documentation on how
we derived it.
This MTTF data is provided to assist in calculating the overall MTTF of a complete or partially complete
piece of machinery. Danfoss cannot be held responsible for the suitability of these calculated MTTF
values for use in the calculation of the overall machinery MTTF values.
The MTTF values are based on a specific machine use, operating environment, and/or duty cycle as stated
by the standards set in place by both the industry and/or Danfoss.

confidence. No information stated in this document or any attachments or supplements may be
reproduced or disclosed in whole or in part without written permission of Danfoss. Further, neither these
documents nor any attachments are a warranty of any sort by Danfoss or a guarantee of machine
suitability for its intended purpose. It remains the responsibility of the machine manufacturer to ensure
overall machine functionality and overall machine safety.
The H1 family of closed circuit variable displacement axial piston pumps is designed for use with all
existing Danfoss hydraulic motors for the control and transfer of hydraulic power. H1 pumps are compact
and high power density where all units utilize an integral electro-hydraulic servo piston assembly that
controls the rate (speed) and direction of the hydraulic flow. H1 pumps are specifically compatible with
the Danfoss family of PLUS+1 microcontrollers for easy Plug-and-Perform installation.
H1 pumps can be used together in combination with other Danfoss pumps and motors in the overall
hydraulic system. Danfoss hydrostatic products are designed with many different displacement, pressure
and load-life capabilities. Go to the Danfoss Power Solutions website or applicable product catalog to
choose the components that are right for your complete closed circuit hydraulic system.
Intended Use
The H1 axial piston variable displacement pumps are of cradle swash plate design and are intended for
closed circuit applications. The flow rate is proportional to the pump input speed and displacement. The
latter is infinitely adjustable between zero and maximum displacement. Flow direction is reversed by
tilting the swash plate to the opposite side of the neutral (zero displacement) position.
Details regarding intended use, such as application examples and operating conditions, are available in
Technical Information documents on our Danfoss Power Solutions web site.
For any intended use other than the above, contact your local Danfoss representative for advice.
Introduction
Results
This technical report states the MTTFd for a H1 pump configuration. The pump configuration is
discriminated between a pump with feedback system and without a feedback system. The calculation of
the MTTFd values of each function is described in the chapter Component Information and Calculations on
page 8.
The following table shows the MTTFd values of pump configurations and special functions.

F1: Safe Controllability (Pump at Demanded Displacement)
An input signal on the control solenoids C1 and C2 will lead to a proportional system flow A/B of the
hydraulic pump. The following table describes the failures and failed parts that can lead to a failure of the
function.
Detailed boundaries to prevent this failure mode:
•
Controls: EDC, NFPE, FDC (Input current is either constant or changes according to the defined
ramps).
•
Control: FNR (Input current/voltage are either switched on or off)
•
Controls: MDC (Provide controlled and limited rotation of MDC input shaft, torque within specified
torque limits). Pump displacement is directly proportional to the MDC input shaft rotation.
•
Controls: AC-1, AC-2:
o Provide demanded displacement signal. Stroking times are controlled by selected ramp time
parameters.
o All AC parameters are set correctly as found with the prototype machine
•
With negative load (e.g. downhill condition), the engine / prime mover needs to have sufficient
braking torque

Hydraulic pressure up to the high pressure relief valve setting is sealed by the pump. The following table
describes the failures and failed parts that can lead to a failure of the function.
Detailed boundaries to prevent this failure mode:
•
Controls: EDC, NFPE (Input current is ramped down below application dependent threshold)
•
Control: FNR (Input current/voltage switched off)
•
Controls: MDC (Provide controlled and limited rotation of MDC input shaft towards neutral). Pump
displacement is directly proportional to the MDC input shaft rotation.
•
Controls: CCO part of NFPE, EDC or MDC (Input current/voltage is switched off, additionally apply
neutral signal to NFPE, EDC or MDC)
•
Control: FDC (Apply ramped current up or down to neutral current as specified in technical
information)
•
Controls: AC-1, AC-2:
o Provide requested displacement signal for neutral and / or deselect current high pressure port
o All AC parameters are set correctly as found with the prototype machine
•
Provide proper timing between park or holding brake engagement and displacement command
according to the application needs
•
Engine / prime mover has sufficient braking torque

speed. It means the block lift will
occur at lower speeds than maximum
allowed speed.
Without an input to the control, the pump must not create a system flow A/B. The following table
describes the failures and failed parts that can lead to a failure of the function.
Detailed boundaries to prevent this failure mode:
• Controls: EDC, NFPE, FNR (Input current for pump is zero)
• Control: FDC (Apply neutral current as specified in technical information)
• Controls: AC-1, AC-2 (No displacement requested)
• Controls: MDC (No force on MDC lever)
• Machine is stand still (zero vehicle speed)
• No differential pressure (machine is e.g. standing on incline); Park brake recommended
• Pump speed zero to max speed

For the pump, this failure is equal to F1: Safe Controllability. The boundaries for the customer are
different. An input signal on the control solenoids C1 and C2 will lead to a proportional system flow A/B
of the hydraulic pump. The following table describes the failures and failed parts that can lead to a failure
of the function.
Detailed boundaries to prevent this failure mode:
•
Controls: EDC, NFPE (Input current is ramped from below threshold)
•
Control: FNR (Input current/voltage is switched on from neutral)
•
Control: FDC (Apply neutral current as specified in technical information)
•
Controls: AC-1, AC-2
o Select requested mode (1, 2, 3, or 4)
o Provide requested displacement signal
o All AC parameters are set correctly as found with the prototype machine
•
Controls: MDC (Provide controlled and limited rotation of MDC input shaft, torque within specified
torque limits)
•
Provide proper timing between park or holding brake release and displacement command according
to the application needs

F6: Safe/Correct Direction of Rotation/Movement (Hydraulic Motor/Cylinder)
This failure can only be influenced by the customer. An example is the wrong wiring of control solenoids,
so the vehicle would drive in the opposite direction as expected. Or wrong outputs that are depending in
the software on the controller.
Detailed boundaries to prevent this failure mode:
•
Controls: EDC, NFPE (Input current is provided to the correct connector / solenoid)
•
Control: FDC (Apply ramped current up or down as specified in technical information)
•
Control: FNR (Input current / voltage is provided to the correct connector / solenoid)
•
Controls: MDC (Provide controlled and limited rotation of MDC input shaft in the correct direction,
torque within specified torque limits). Pump displacement is directly proportional to the MDC input
shaft rotation.
•
Controls: AC-1, AC-2
o Provide correct direction signal (FNR)
o AC output current is provided to the correct connector/solenoid
o All AC parameters are set correctly as found with the prototype machine
