PVED-CX, Series 4 Electrohydraulic Actuator

General Information

PVED-CX introduction

The Danfoss PVED-CX is a PVE-Series 4 actuator for the PVG 32. CX is an abbreviation for CAN bus communication and eXtended safety. The PVED-CX is intended for markets where a documented extended safety is needed. In particular
cranes, man-lifts and telehandlers are in focus. A PVG with PVED-CX is designed to meet Safety Integrity Level 2 (SIL2). So when performing a Risk and
Hazard Analysis, as mandated by the EU Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC, the Danfoss customer can cut down on external safety systems and easier get an IEC61508 certified system.
A product specific wiring harness is part of the PVED-CX concept as use of the special Danfoss end plate for cranes (PVSK) is.
Certification of the PVED-CX system appliance to the IEC61508 is made by TÜV SÜD, Munich, Germany.

Technical Information
PVED-CX, Series 4 Electrohydraulic Actuator
General Information
Warning
Please work through all warnings before implementing actuators in any application. The list of warnings must not be seen as a full list of potential dangers. Depending on application and use other potential dangers can occur.
Warning
All brands and all types of directional control valves – including proportional valves – can fail and cause serious damage. It is therefore important to analyze all aspects of the application. Because the proportional valves are used in many different operation conditions and applications, the machine builder/ system integrator alone is responsible for making the final selection of the products – and assuring that all performance, safety and Warning requirements of the application are met.

Overview

The PVG is a sectioned spool valve stack with up to 12 individually controlled proportional valves. With the PVED-CX the PVG can operate as one or more control sections. A control section is a group of two to eight PVED-CX connected by one cable kit with mutual monitoring and the feature that any PVED can bring the entire control section to safe state if a fault is found.
The oil flow out of the work section (A- or B-port) can be controlled by a combination of the following:
PVED-CX controlling the spool position using pilot oil pressure.
A handle (PVM) in mechanical interface with the spool.
The oil flow into the PVG can be controlled using an electrically controlled main oil valve (PVSK) as
end cover. The PVED-CX is foreseen as PVSK controller in the Danfoss SIL2 concept. The PVSK can also supply an additional PVG via the High Pressure Carry Over (HPCO) port.

Technical Information
PVED-CX, Series 4 Electrohydraulic Actuator
General Information
5 – Emergency 10 – Set points and feedback
The PVED-CX uses the CANopen protocol, thus following the standard protocol CiA301v402 and the device specific protocol for proportional valves CiA408v151 with a minimum set of vendor specific additions.
The physical layer for CAN communication applies to ISO 11898-2 high speed CAN. The spool is controlled by spool position with 127 positions each direction and dead band compensation.
Monitored manual operation is possible. Electronics and spool control are independently power supplied and the redundant system monitoring
can shut down the whole control section in case of failures. The redundant monitoring continuously evaluates spool position, communication, electronics, memory,
calculations and temperature. To avoid needless power consumption the PVED-CX has the Power Save feature, where power
consumption is reduced by almost 90% when the spool is in neutral.

PVG functionality

PVG functionality

This chapter will give an overview of the PVG functionality.
Valve section with naming - standard mounted - seen from PVP
The PVG valve distributes oil from pump flow to a particular work function in the application via a specific valve section. This is done by moving the spool (PVBS).
Depending on the choice of components the oil work flow enters the PVG through the PVP (proportional valve pump side module) or the PVSK (proportional valve end plate for crane) and enters the PVB (proportional valve basic module) via the P gallery and leaves through the T gallery.
When looking at figure 4 you see the valve section from PVP towards PVSK with the PVM and PVE standard mounted. When PVM and PVE are interchanged it’s called option mounted.
With the spool in neutral, where it is kept by the neutral spring, the connection to the application via ports is blocked.
Moving the spool towards the PVE, as in figure 4, opens a connection between P and A and also between B and T. This is done by either pushing the PVM or sending a retract command to PVED. The PVED move the spool by letting Pilot Oil Pressure (Pp) push on the right end of the PVBS and releasing pressure from the left end. For details on PVG32 please see PVG 32 Proportional valves, Technical information, 520L0334.
Any PVG with PVM can be operated by PVM alone independent of power supply. Any PVG with PVED-CX can monitor PVBS if power and communication conditions are present.

Mounting

The Danfoss PVG concept is based on parts interchangeability. This is also valid for the PVED-CX and makes field retrofitting possible.
PVED can be mounted on both ends of PVB.
Cable kit can be mounted with first or last connector next to PVP.
Cable kit can be delivered with and without CANbus termination.
Warning
Deviation from recommended torque can harm performance and module.

Linear Variable Differential Transducer (LVDT)

The Linear Variable Differential Transducer (LVDT) or position sensor is the interface between the mechanical system (spool) and the electronic system.
Warning
The LVDT must never be mechanically adjusted, bent, damaged or partially blocked as this will lead to incorrect information on spool position.

Spool neutral spring

The PVBS neutral spring is an important safety component as it keeps or moves the PVBS in blocked position when solenoid valves are disabled. The spring will keep the A and B port closed as long as the differential pressure is below 6 bar.

PVED-CX functionality

Hydraulic subsystem

The hydraulic subsystem is used for moving the spool and thereby opening the valve for work flow.
Pilot oil diagram

Electrical and electronic subsystem

The heart of the hydraulic subsystem is the solenoid valve bridge. It consist of four poppet valves, the two upper ones are normally closed (NC-S) with a small bleed, the two lower ones are normally open (NO).
The Pp will work against the PVBS neutral spring when the spool is moved out of blocked (neutral) and together with the spring when going in blocked. This combined with a larger opening in the NO than in the NC-S will give a faster movement towards blocked than out of blocked.
Warning
Obstacles for the Pp can have direct influence on spool control. Reduced pilot pressure will limit spool control. Too high Pp can harm the system.
The PVED-CX is based on the known PVED-CC series 4 technology with the ASIC core controlling the main functionality of the solenoid valves, and a micro-controller system as Module Safety Manager and interface between the analogue ASIC and the CAN bus communication. The micro-controller also monitors its neighbor PVED-CX and has the ability to disable spool actuation for the whole control section.

Optical – LED
Blinking and steady light is implemented to facilitate maintenance and application engineering.
Analogue
Analogue communication is implemented. An analogue signal is sent from active module to monitoring module to enforce redundancy. Module under surveillance is referred to as neighbor module in settings. The operational mode of the module under surveillance (neighbor) decides the behavior of the
monitoring module.
Digital – CANopen
The CANopen communication is the main method. It is used for:
Control of module by master. Master defines state transition and set points.
Reporting from module to master. Module reports spool position and safety violation
Setting in module by master. Some parameters can be changed.
Inquiry from master to module.

Computerized subsystem

CANopen is a communication protocol defined by the society CAN in Automation (CiA). For details in the protocol we refer to CiA.
The PVED-CX operates according to defined Device State Machines (DSM) giving conditions for transition between states. The Communication State Machine (CSM) is pre-condition for the DSM.
State transitions depends on internal conditions e.g. the sanity of the PVED-CX and can also depend on external conditions e.g. application controller commands and changes in preconditions for normal valve operation.
DSM and CSM for PVED-CX

Technical Information
PVED-CX, Series 4 Electrohydraulic Actuator
PVED-CX functionality
When power is applied to the PVED-CX it will initialize components and validate component states and parameter settings. This is the power on self test (POST).
If test is passed the PVED will enter Disabled State and make it self known to the controller as active. Otherwise it will enter Fault mode and if possible also generate a fault message.
When the state is Device Mode Active or Device Mode Disabled module reporting can be trusted when in fault states report validity is related to the fault type.

Operational modes

The PVED-CX has three accessible operational modes for normal operations.
Full operational. Spool position is controlled and monitored. Device Mode Active.
Hand operational. Spool position is monitored. Device Mode Disabled.
Automatic system safety integrity self test. Device Mode Active.
It is not mandatory for all modules in the same Control Section to be in the same Operational Mode. Fault monitoring is active independent of operational mode. See Safety description on page 23 section.

Full operational

In full operational mode the PVED-CX controls the spool and monitors the neighbor spool.
This mode is characterized by:
Set point is received from Master and acted on by the module
Solenoid valves are enabled by local switch if not in Power Save
Neighbor monitoring of set point and spool position is active
Spool position reporting is active
No fault is present
LED green

Hand operational

In hand operational mode the PVED-CX cannot control the spool.
This mode is characterized by:
Spool position is defined by PVM and spool neutral spring
Set point is not calculated. Master module does not have to send
Solenoid valves are disabled by local switch
Neighbor monitoring of spool reporting is active
Spool position reporting is active
No fault is present
LED green.

Automatic system safety integrity self test – ASSIST

The ASSIST is as a tool for end-of-line test and maintenance test especially in connection with parts replacement and system modification.
In the ASSIST the system ability to recognize spool movement as fault and signal incongruence is tested automatically. This also includes the redundancy created by the cable harness.
The following is tested:

Settings

The PVED-CX offers a number of settings for both system information and system operation. The parameters are, as required in CANopen, organized in an Electronic Data Sheet (EDS). The available parameters are both fixed parameters and variable parameters. For details in the protocol we refer to CiA.

Logging

During operation the PVED-CX logs data, that can be accessed at any time.
Error history. A runtime log, cleared by reset and power off, keeps track of error order in a FIFO buffer
Error counts. For each error code an occurrence counter is maintained in the EEPROM
Temperature (current)
Temperature histogram. For every 6 minutes of run time the current temperature is logged
Please find details in the Data section.

Normal operation – self and neighbor supervision concept

The main spool is kept in blocked/neutral position by the neutral spring. By use of the handle (PVM) or the solenoid valves and the Pp the spool can be moved to any position and so open for system pressure to the application.

Spool supervision

Danfoss | Jun 2017 11070179 | BC00000068en-US0503 | 21
The Set Point for the PVED is broadcasted on CAN bus by the System Main Controller/Master. During transmission the signal is evaluated for irregularity by all modules on the bus but only modules programmed for the specific signal will perform further calculations.
Upon reception the micro-controller (relevant module and neighbor) evaluates the validity of the set point.
If the set point is valid, and not blocked when power save is active, a local switch in the ASIC is conected by the microcontroller and the solenoid valves are enabled.
The controller transforms the digital message to a PWM signal and sends it to the ASIC. The ASIC evaluate if the PWM is in the valid range.
At any time the ASIC monitors the spool position via the position sensor (LVDT) feedback. This determines the spool position for the closed loop control. Additionally the spool position is sent from the
Technical Information
PVED-CX, Series 4 Electrohydraulic Actuator
Normal operation – self and neighbor supervision concept
ASIC to the neighbor microcontroller as an analogue signal and the LVDT feedback is also fed to the microcontroller for generation of the CAN message.

Solenoid control

Based on set point and spool position the ASIC performs a closed loop control at a fixed frequency controlling the solenoid bridge.

Position reporting

The PVED-CX sends, when operating as a system configured module, continued spool position reports. This is intended as information for comparison for the application controller and the neighbor module

Neighbor supervision

Microcontroller supervision

ASIC supervision

CAN: Spool position is calculated and broadcasted on the CAN bus with redundant representation of data.
Spool position is reported as blocked when closer to neutral than approx. 0.7 mm. Spool position is reported as not blocked when further from neutral than approx. 0.7 mm. When the spool is further from neutral than software dead-band threshold the spool position is calculated as an averaged value over the last 50 ms.
Analogue: Spool position is sent as an analogue signal to neighbor microcontroller.
The special PVED-CX cable kit ensures that the supervising module has the spool position from the supervised module as an analogue value and also the reported spool position via CAN bus. If supervised module is in Full Operational mode the set point from the controller is also known.
The neighbor microcontroller compares the analogue and the CAN spool position values. In Full Operational Mode the spool position is also compared to the set point. Any deviation will raise an error.
Spool monitoring in PVG, see Cable kit principle.
The microcontroller has mutual watch dog functionality with a PIC giving redundant ability to shut down the ASIC. The PIC can also shut down CAN communication.
The ASIC feeder signal for the LVDT is monitored by the microcontroller.

Temperature supervision

The temperature of the electronic printed circuit board (PCB) is continuously monitored. This has two purposes:
Calculated expected system reaction time must reflect temperature changes in oil viscosity.
Component temperature conditions are within specified values.

Power save

To minimize energy consumption the PVED-CX has a power save functionality. If the set point for the PVED-CX has been blocked for more than 500ms the solenoids will be deactivated by the local switch. This reduces power consumption by 90 %.

Safety description

The Danfoss definition of safe state transition by fault is: Spool is placed in blocked position (neutral). The PVED-CX has Active Fault Reaction, e.g. brings the system into a safe state on fault.
The PVED-CX safety concept is based on three elements:

POST – Power On Self Test

ASSIST – Automatic System Safety Integrity Test

Runtime fault monitoring and reaction
The basic elements for product safety are:
Continuous module monitoring
Fault recognition and reaction
Fault reporting and recording
Fault recovery
POST – Power On Self Test
Passing of the Power On Self Test is a pre condition for Full Operational Mode and ASSIST. The POST evaluates internal signals, memory state, internal settings and neighbor connection.
ASSIST – Automatic System Safety Integrity Test
The Automatic System Safety Integrity Self Test evaluates the electrical wiring connections, module inter communication, spool monitoring and hydraulic spool control.
The ASSIST is an optional test but must be passed in case of:
First time use of PVG
Changes in settings
Cable kit replacement and manipulation
Module replacement

Runtime fault monitoring

The fault monitoring is a part of the continuous self and neighbor monitoring. A number of conditions will force the Device State Machine transition to fault mode. For details see sections: Data section and
Error codes.

Communication fault

Communication faults interrupts application (system) and module cooperation. These faults are mainly connected to wiring faults, disabled controllers and illegal commands.
Loss of communication
Valid communication with invalid data
Communication disturbance
The CAN communication is based on a physical layer applying to ISO 11898-2 high speed CAN. Faults handled by this standard are not considered relevant for this document with recovery from bus off as an exception.

Spool position fault

Spool position faults are directly related to the hydraulic performance of the application. These faults indicate difference between demanded and actual spool position.
The following categories of position faults are recognized:

Technical Information
PVED-CX, Series 4 Electrohydraulic Actuator
Safety description
Spool further out than demanded.
Spool in opposite direction to demanded.
Spool not in neutral: Target window monitoring
The spool position is determined by LVDT contact to spool end. LVDT faults are treated as electrical faults. Spool position is handled with tolerance as stated in Data section with consideration to mechanical delay
and temperature influence.

System data fault

The data handling is depending on the quality of stored data and the range of input data. To avoid faults the following is monitored:
Degradation of EEPROM.
Degradation of FLASH.
Sanity of look up tables
Undefined calculations – division by 0
Interpolation replaced by extrapolation
Unwanted truncation
Interrupted write process - Data mirror
Inconsistency in spool position calculation

Electrical fault

The quality/presence of the following electrical signals is monitored to guarantee behavior within specification.
Reciprocal watch dog signals between PIC and microprocessor
Battery voltage in specified level
LVDT feeder signals from ASIC
Analogue to digital converter ADC
PWM (Pulse width Modulated) signal from micro processor to ASIC

Temperature fault and correction

Electronic component reliability and electronic component life time are influenced by temperature as well as oil viscosity is. Temperature measurements on PCB is used for
Interrupting spool control if PCB temperature is to high
Interrupting spool control if PCB average temperature is to high
Delay spool monitoring time out if PCB temperature is to low
Determine product work hours based on temperature histogram

Test fault

The PVED has two tests with special status.
POST. Power On Self Test for module integrity before operation.
ASSIST. Automatic System Safety Integrity Self Test for module cooperation in control section.

Fault level

The PVED-CX has three fault severity levels.

Safety description
Warning
Critical
Severe
Warning
Warning is entered if the fault is expected to have external origin and the PVED performance is certain not to suffer once the state is passed. Warning has no influence on neighbor modules activity.
Critical
Critical is entered if reliability of a defined element of the system could be threatened. Critical has influence on neighbor modules activity.
Severe
Severe is entered if system reliability could be threatened. Severe has influence on neighbor modules activity.
Threshold not passed
If a fault precondition is present the PVED keeps track but operates as requested until an eventual threshold is passed e.g. spool not at demanded position but only for a short time.
For every fault related to a time or occurrence threshold a counter is established. The counter is started and reset according to a fault depending scheme.

Fault reaction

Fault reporting

The fault reaction has highest priority in the PVED-CX. Depending on the fault the PVED immediately goes into a defined fault state. Any fault of a higher severity will override any present less severe fault.
Warning Local switch is disabled. Solenoid valves disabled.
Critical and Severe
Spool monitoring and reporting still active. Comparison set point-actual position is disabled Fault monitoring still active depending on operation mode. Neighbor monitoring still active
Safety switch is disabled. Solenoid valves disabled in the whole control section. Spool monitoring and reporting still active. Comparison set point-actual position is disabled Fault monitoring still active depending on operation mode. Neighbor monitoring still active
Fault reporting is a part of the communication task and has lower priority than fault reaction.
CAN bus Appropriate emergency messages are sent out according to the CANopen standard.
Error logs Fault is stored in an EDS log in RAM over last 50 errors using a first in first out buffer.
