General information

PVG 16, PVG 32 and Open Circuit Load Sense Example

The pump receives fluid directly from the reservoir through the inlet line. A screen in the inlet line protects the pump from large contaminants. The pump outlet feeds directional control valves such as PVG-32’s, hydraulic integrated circuits (HIC), and other types of control valves. The PVG valve directs and controls pump flow to cylinders, motors and other work functions. A heat exchanger cools the fluid returning from the valve. A filter cleans the fluid before it returns to the reservoir.
Flow in the circuit determines the speed of the actuators. The position of the PVG valve spool determines the flow demand. A hydraulic pressure signal (LS signal) communicates demand to the pump control. The pump control monitors the pressure differential between pump outlet and the LS signal, and regulates servo pressure to control the swashplate angle. Swashplate angle determines pump flow.
Actuator load determines system pressure. The pump control monitors system pressure and will decrease the swashplate angle to reduce flow if system pressure reaches the PC setting. A secondary system relief valve in the PVG valve acts as a back-up to control system pressure.

General information

Load sensing controls

The LS control matches system requirements for both pressure and flow in the circuit regardless of the working pressure. Used with a closed center control valve, the pump remains in low-pressure standby mode with zero flow until the valve is opened. The LS setting determines standby pressure.
Typical operating curve
Most load sensing systems use parallel, closed center, control valves with special porting that allows the highest work function pressure (LS signal) to feed back to the LS control.
Margin pressure is the difference between system pressure and the LS signal pressure. The LS control monitors margin pressure to read system demand. A drop in margin pressure means the system needs more flow. A rise in margin pressure tells the LS control to decrease flow.

LS control with bleed orifice (do not use with PVG valves)

The load sense signal line requires a bleed orifice to prevent high-pressure lockup of the pump control. Most load-sensing control valves include this orifice. An optional internal bleed orifice is available, for use with control valves that do not internally bleed the LS signal to tank.
Load sensing circuit

Integral PC function

The LS control also performs as a PC control, decreasing pump flow when system pressure reaches the PC setting. The pressure compensating function has priority over the load sensing function.
For additional system protection, install a relief valve in the pump outlet line.

Load sensing system characteristics:

Variable pressure and flow
Low pressure standby mode when flow is not needed
System flow adjusted to meet system requirements
Lower torque requirements during engine start-up
Single pump can supply flow and regulate pressure for multiple circuits
Quick response to system flow and pressure requirements

General information

PVBS, main spools with pressure compensated control

The PC control maintains constant system pressure in the hydraulic circuit by varying the output flow of the pump. Used with a closed center control valve, the pump remains in high pressure standby mode at the PC setting with zero flow until the function is actuated.
Typical operating curve
Simple closed center circuit
Once the closed center valve is opened, the PC control senses the immediate drop in system pressure and increases pump flow by increasing the swashplate angle.
The pump continues to increase flow until system pressure reaches the PC setting. If system pressure exceeds the PC setting, the PC control reduces the swashplate angle to maintain
system pressure by reducing flow. The PC control continues to monitor system pressure and changes swashplate angle to match the output flow with the work function pressure requirements.
If the demand for flow exceeds the capacity of the pump, the PC control directs the pump to maximum displacement. In this condition, actual system pressure depends on the actuator load.
For additional system protection, install a relief valve in the pump outlet line.

General information

Remote pressure compensated controls

The remote PC control is a two-stage control that allows multiple PC settings. Remote PC controls are commonly used in applications requiring low and high pressure PC operation.
Typical operating curve
The remote PC control uses a pilot line connected to an external hydraulic valve. The external valve changes pressure in the pilot line, causing the PC control to operate at a lower pressure. When the pilot line is vented to reservoir, the pump maintains pressure at the load sense setting.
When pilot flow is blocked, the pump maintains pressure at the PC setting. An on-off solenoid valve can be used in the pilot line to create a low-pressure standby mode. A proportional solenoid valve, coupled with a microprocessor control, can produce an infinite range of operating pressures between the low pressure standby setting and the PC setting.
Size the external valve and plumbing for a pilot flow of 3.8 l/min [1 US gal/min]. For additional system protection, install a relief valve in the pump outlet line.

Open center PVP

Description of the example: PVG 32 with open center PVP (fixed displacement pump) and PVB with flow control spool.
When the pump is started and the main spools in the individual basic modules (11) are in the neutral position, oil flows from the pump, through connection P, across the pressure adjustment spool (6) to tank. The oil flow led across the pressure adjustment spool determines the pump pressure (stand-by pressure).
When one or more of the main spools are actuated, the highest load pressure is fed through the shuttle valve circuit (10) to the spring chamber behind the pressure adjustment spool (6), and completely or partially closes the connection to tank to maintain pump pressure. Pump pressure is applied to the right­hand side of the pressure adjustment spool.
The pressure relief valve (1) will open when the load pressure exceed the set value, diverting pump flow back to tank.
In a pressure-compensated basic module the compensator (14) maintains a constant pressure drop across the main spool – both when the load changes and when a module with a higher load pressure is actuated.
With a non pressure-compensated basic module incorporating a load drop check valve (18) in channel P, the check valve prevents return oil flow.
The basic module can be supplied without the load drop check valve in channel P for functions with over­center valves.
The shock valves PVLP (13) with fixed setting and the suction valves PVLA (17) on ports A and B are used for the protection of the individual working function against overload and/or cavitation.
An adjustable LS pressure limiting valve (12) can be built into the A and B ports of pressure-compensated basic modules to limit the pressure from the individual working functions. The LS pressure limiting valves save energy compared with:
PVLP all the oil flow to the working function will be led across the combined shock and suction valves
to tank if the pressure exceeds the fixed setting. LS pressure limiting valves an oil flow of about 2 l/min [0.5 US gal/min] will be led across the LS
pressure limiting valve to tank if the pressure exceeds the valve setting.
Please see the sectional drawing Sectional view on page 12 for better understanding of this example.

Closed center PVP

Description of the example: PVG 32 with closed center PVP (variable displacement pump) and PVB with flow control spool.
In the closed center version of PVP an orifice (5) and a plug (7) have been fitted instead of the plug (4). This means that the pressure adjustment spool (6) will open to tank when the pressure in channel P exceeds the set value of the pressure relief valve (1). The pressure relief valve in PVP should be set at a pressure of approx. 30 bar [435 psi] above maximum system pressure (set on the pump or external pressure relief valve).
In load sensing systems the load pressure is led to the pump control via the LS connection (8). In the neutral position the pump load sense control sets the displacement so that leakage in the system is compensated, to maintain the set stand-by pressure. When a main spool is actuated the pump load sense control will adjust the displacement so that the set differential pressure (margin) between P and LS is maintained.
Please see the sectional drawing Sectional view on page 12 for better understanding of this example.

Safety in Application

All types of control valves (incl. proportional valves) can fail, thus the necessary protection against the serious consequences of function failure should always be built into the system. For each application an assessment should be made for the consequences of pressure failure and uncontrolled or blocked movements.
To determine the degree of protection that is required to be built into the application, system tools such an FMEA (Failure Mode and Effect Analysis) and Hazard and Risk Analysis can be used.
FMEA – IEC EN 61508
FMEA (Failure Mode and Effect Analysis) is a tool used for analyzing potential risks. This analytical technique is utilized to define, identify, and prioritize the elimination or reduction of known and/or potential failures from a given system before it is released for production. Please refer to the standard IEC FMEA 61508.
Hazard and risk analysis ISO 12100-1/14121
This analysis is a tool used in new applications as it will indicate whether there are special safety considerations to be met according to the machine directives EN 13849. Dependent on the determined levels conformity this analysis will detirmine if any extra requirements for the product design, development process, production process or maintenance, example the complete product life cycle.
Warning
All brands and all types of directional control or proportional valves, which are used in many different operation conditions and applications, can fail and cause serious damage. Analyze all aspects of the application. 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. The process of choosing the control system and safety levels is governed by the machine directives EN 13849 (Safety related requirements for control systems).

Assembly instructions

PVG 16 and 32 general conditions

The specification sheet is compiled by the sales department for assembly of a new PVG 16 and PVG 32 valve groups.
1. Before, during and after the assembly/disassembly of new PVG groups, absolute cleanliness and care
must be observed with regard to internal and external parts of the units concerned.
2. Use non-volatile, petroleum based solutions for cleaning valves and/or modules.
3. Replace all parts considered likely to cause malfunction during subsequent testing.
4. Replace all loose O-rings (without exceptions) with new O-rings.
5. Lubricate all moving parts with hydraulic oil before assembly.
6. Lubricate all O-rings with petroleum jelly.
Refer to Service Manual 520L0515 for module designations, item and spare parts numbers.

Assembly

The basic assembly sequence for PVG 16 and PVG 32 group is as follows:
1. Starting from the end plate place the module with (PVS, PVSP, PVSK ) the tie rod bolts with the long threaded end pointing upwards ready for mounting of PVB modules.
2. Place all lubricated O-rings in their respective grooves in the different modules.
3. Locate the basic modules (PVB) against the PVP (PVS, PVSP, PVSK) using the tie rod bolts for
alignment between the PVP and the PVB modules making sure the LS shuttle valve is able to move freely.
4. Place the PVP (the PVS if a valve group has midinlet, or HIC) as the last module and place the washers and nuts in position and hand tighten the valve.
5. Place the valve on a plain and level surface and tighten the assembly to a torque of 28 ±2 N•m (247.8 ±17 lbf•in) using a 13 mm socket. Max. level tolerance is 0.5 mm per section e.g. this means with 8 PVB sections max. allowable height difference between the mounting holes would be 4 mm (this would also be seen as a twist in the valve group assembly).
The valve assembly is to be assembled in accordance with the specification sheet.
6. Install the spools (PVBS) into the PVB’s. The assembled spool is marked with two four-digit numbers
The number in the end of the spool where the plug is fitted, “B”, is the drawing number of the spool and indicates that this end must face towards the “B” port of the valve.
The other number, stamped on the side the PVBS pull rod “A”, is the module number of the assembled main spool.
For spool assemblies with remote hydraulic spools, the centering spring is different. The standard spring has a wire diameter of 1.9 mm. The remote hydraulic spring (5-15 bar) has a wire diameter of
2.8 mm.

PVG 16 and PVG 32 are symmetrical, which allows for valve groups to be “option mounted” This can be one by inserting the spools from the “B” port side and mounting the PVM’s on the “B” port side of the PVB assembly.
7. Assemble the mechanical actuators to the valve (see the figure below). Before fitting the PVM into
engagement with the PVBS tension rod, the driver arm must be pushed towards the PVB before engagement will occur. Once the driver arm is engaged, rotate the mechanical actuator while pressing the PVM until the PVM is flush against the PVB housing.
Tighten the four (4) mounting screws to a torque of 0.8 +0/-0.5 N•m [70 +0/-4.5 lbf•in] using a 5 mm hex driver.

PVG 16 and 32 leak test

After all components have been assembled and tightened to the proper specifications, a leak test with compressed air must be performed.
1. Block off all “A” and “B” ports with steel plugs.
2. Block off the “P” port with a steel plug in the PVP. Screw the compressed air connection into the “T”
port. (see the figure below).
Block diagram
3. Apply compressed air at 6.9 bar [100 psi] for 5 minutes. At the same time, activate all PVM control
levers in order to fill fill all channels, chambers and cavities with an air.
4. Shut off the compressed air so that pressure is confined in the entire valve.
The permissible pressure drop in the valve is 0.5 bar [7 psi] per minute maximum. Small leaks can be traced by pouring a small amount of oil onto the place where the leak is thought to be present.
5. Try correcting small leaks by retightening the assembly. Large leaks usually indicate forgotten or
squeezed O-rings.

Pressure setting after assembly

All relief valves must be set with a gauge located in the gauge port of the PVP.
Groups with CLOSED CENTER PVP’S can be tested as assembled for all pressure relief settings.
Groups with OPEN CENTER PVP’S and PVB’S with shock valves (PVLP) and LSA/LSB valves with opening
pressure lower than the pressure setting in the PVP. The PVP must be modified temporarily to CLOSED CENTER. After the relief settings are made, the PVP must be corrected to OPEN CENTER. All other with OPEN CENTER PVP’S can be tested as assembled.
The PVP and LSA/LSB pressure relief valves must be set by applying oil pressure on the “P” port in the
PVP. The “T” port must be connected to tank. All “A” and “B” ports must be blocked off with steel plugs.
The quantity of oil supplied to the valve assembly must be at least 15 +/- 2 L/min [4 +/- 0.45 US gal/
min]. The CLOSED CENTER PVP module can be set by applying pressure to the “P” port.
The OPEN CENTER PVP module can be set by applying pressure to the “P” port and activating the
spool in the A or B direction dead headeding the A or B port. It is assumed that the PVP module has a higher setting than the LSA/LSB valves. LSA/LSB valves must
be set one at a time by activating the spool in the PVB section in the direction of the LS valve to be adjusted.
Adjustment of the relief valve is accomplished by using a 4 mm hex wrench.

PVG 16 and 32 function testing

Function testing insures the correct dynamic manual and electrical operation of the PVG 16 and PVG 32 valve assembly. This test should be performed after completing the pressure adjustments. Each section of the assembly must be tested:
1. With the pump connected, remove the plugs from the section to be tested as described in the
Pressure setting after assembly on page 22 section. Connect the “A” port of the valve to the rod end of
the cylinder and the “B” port to the base end of the cylinder (see the figure below).

2. Shift the control lever of the tested section towards the valve and observe cylinder retraction. Shift
the same control lever away from the valve and observe cylinder extension. Repeat several times. On valve groups with PVM’s on the “B” side, the cylinder movement will be opposite when shifting the handle in the same direction.
3. Check the spool travel smoothness in both directions.

Testing
4. Check the metering of the spool in both directions. Can you control the speed of the cylinder/motor,
slow/fast?
5. Check to see if the LS signal at the PVP drops off, when the spool is in the neutral position. This signal
also should not build up pressure in the neutral position.
6. Shift the spool to one direction manually and let go of the control lever. The valve should center itself.
If the control lever sticks in any position, check for binding of the spool. This is to be checked in both directions.
7. Utilizing a controller package, connect the EL-PLUG connector to the PVE. Set the controller to the
corresponding PVE. Insure that the proper voltage and joystick are being used. Similar to manual testing of the valve, eclectically shift the valve to allow flow out the “A” port.
Check to see if the PVM control level shifts in the correct direction. This should also be done in the “B” direction. Check to insure that once the controller is not activated the valve centers itself. Observe that the spool responds to any change in the signal from the joystick. Any change in position of the joystick should relate to a change in the PVM control lever. Check the metering of the PVEM/H’s.
8. After all sections have been tested, insure that all relief valves are adjusted correctly. Refer to the
section Pressure setting after assembly on page 22 for any adjustments.
9. Remove all steel plugs, fittings and hoses. Drain the oil from the valve group. Install plastic plugs in all
ports & rubber cap (155L6377) over all pressure adjustments.
10. A certified PVG valve test report must be completed & accompany every valve, e.g. see PVG 32 Test
report on page 25 on the next page.
Sections with open ported spools will experience cylinder extension in the neutral position.
