Meter-In Meter-Out – Open Circuit Transmission
The Meter-in Meter-out module is designed primarily
for use with transmission hydraulic motors in e.q.
manlifts or demanding winch applications. The terms
Meter-In and Meter- Out relates to the oil flow being
metered into (Meter-In) and out from (Meter-Out) the
transmission motor by the PVG valve.
With the Meter-in Meter-out module both flows in
and out of the transmission motors are controlled at
the same time.
The Meter-in Meter-out module will ensure a stable,
well controlled movement of application when motor
is pushing (i.e. upwards hill) or motor being pulled
(i.e. downward hill) or horizontal movement.

Application Awareness
•
With the Meter-In Meter-Out module, stability is determined by ensuring that oil flow into the system is always lower than oil flow out
of the system. This is achieved by means of different spring settings in the Meter-In Meter-Out compensators. As an example, this
means that a motor will run faster in Meter-Out mode than in Meter-In mode.
•
Due to the Meter-out compensators, a backpressure valve is needed to avoid cavitations when running in meter-out situations. The
back pressure setting would be application dependent but typical values are between 5-10 bar. Increased back pressure setting
ensures better protection against cavitations but also decrease energy efficiencies. The hydraulic system would be leaking in neutral
when external forces acts on the working ports. To avoid unwanted movements of the applied motors, therefore external brakes are
needed.
•
Dependent on the application type smooth movement could be requested. PVE’s in combination with a controller and joystick could
be useful to add ramps on the spool and delay on the motor brakes so it doesn’t hit the brakes too hard when returning to neutral.
