OPERATING RECOMMENDATIONS
OIL TYPE
Hydraulic oils with anti-wear, anti-foam and demulsifiers are recommended for systems incorporating Danfoss motors. Straight oils can be used but may require VI (viscosity index) improvers depending on the operating temperature range of the system. Other water based and environmentally friendly oils may be used, but service life of the motor and other components in the system may be significantly shortened. Before using any type of fluid, consult the fluid requirements for all components in the system for compatibility. Testing under actual operating conditions is the only way to determine if acceptable service life will be achieved.
FLUID VISCOSITY & FILTRATION
Fluids with a viscosity between 20 - 43 cSt [100 - 200 S.U.S.] at operating temperature is recommended. Fluid temperature should also be maintained below 85°C [180° F]. It is also suggested that the type of pump and its operating specifications be taken into account when choosing a fluid for the system. Fluids with high viscosity can cause cavitation at the inlet side of the pump. Systems that operate over a wide range of temperatures may require viscosity improvers to provide acceptable fluid performance.
Danfoss recommends maintaining an oil cleanliness level of ISO 17-14 or better.
INSTALLATION & START-UP
When installing a Danfoss motor it is important that the mounting flange of the motor makes full contact with the mounting surface of the application. Mounting hardware of the appropriate grade and size must be used. Hubs, pulleys, sprockets and couplings must be properly aligned to avoid inducing excessive thrust or radial loads. Although the output device must fit the shaft snug, a hammer should never be used to install any type of output device onto the shaft. The port plugs should only be removed from the motor when the system connections are ready to be made. To avoid contamination, remove all matter from around the ports of the motor and the threads of the fittings. Once all system connections are made, it is recommended that the motor be run-in for 15-30 minutes at no load and half speed to remove air from the hydraulic system.
MOTOR PROTECTION
Over-pressurization of a motor is one of the primary causes of motor failure. To prevent these situations, it is necessary to provide adequate relief protection for a motor based on the pressure ratings for that particular model. For systems that may experience overrunning conditions, special precautions must be taken. In an overrunning condition, the motor functions as a pump and attempts to convert kinetic energy into hydraulic energy. Unless the system is properly
configured for this condition, damage to the motor or system can occur. To protect against this condition a counterbalance valve or relief cartridge must be incorporated into the circuit to reduce the risk of overpressurization. If a relief cartridge is used, it must be installed upline of the motor, if not in the motor, to relieve the pressure created by the over-running motor. To provide proper motor protection for an over-running load application, the pressure setting of the pressure relief valve must not exceed the intermittent rating of the motor.
HYDRAULIC MOTOR SAFETY PRECAUTION
A hydraulic motor must not be used to hold a suspended load. Due to the necessary internal tolerances, all hydraulic motors will experience some degree of creep when a load induced torque is applied to a motor at rest. All applications that require a load to be held must use some form of mechanical brake designed for that purpose.
MOTOR/BRAKE PRECAUTION
Caution! - Danfoss motor/brakes are intended to operate as static or parking brakes. System circuitry must be designed to bring the load to a stop before applying the brake.
Caution! - Because it is possible for some large displacement motors to overpower the brake, it is critical that the maximum system pressure be limited for these applications. Failure to do so could cause serious injury or death. When choosing a motor/brake for an application, consult the performance chart for the series and displacement chosen for the application to verify that the maximum operating pressure of the system will not allow the motor to produce more torque than the maximum rating of the brake. Also, it is vital that the system relief be set low enough to insure that the motor is not able to overpower the brake.
To ensure proper operation of the brake, a separate case drain back to tank must be used. Use of the internal drain option is not recommended due to the possibility of return line pressure spikes.Asimple schematic of a system utilizing a motor/brake is shown on page 4. Although maximum brake release pressure may be used for an application, a
34 bar [500 psi] pressure reducing valve is recommended to promote maximum life for the brake release piston seals.
However, if a pressure reducing valve is used in a system which has case drain back pressure, the pressure reducing valve should be set to 34 bar [500 psi] over the expected case pressure to ensure full brake release. To achieve proper brake release operation, it is necessary to bleed out any trapped air and fill brake release cavity and hoses before all connections are tightened. To facilitate this operation, all motor/brakes feature two release ports. One or both of these ports may be used to release the brake in the

unit. Motor/brakes should be configured so that the release ports are near the top of the unit in the installed position.
TYPICAL MOTOR/BRAKE SCHEMATIC
Once all system connections are made, one release port must be opened to atmosphere and the brake release line carefully charged with fluid until all air is removed from the line and motor/brake release cavity. When this has been accomplished the port plug or secondary release line must be reinstalled. In the event of a pump or battery failure, an external pressure source may be connected to the brake release port to release the brake, allowing the machine to be moved.
MOTOR CIRCUITS
There are two common types of circuits used for connecting multiple numbers of motors – series connection and parallel connection.
SERIES CONNECTION
When motors are connected in series, the outlet of one motor is connected to the inlet of the next motor. This allows the full pump flow to go through each motor and provide maximum speed. Pressure and torque are distributed between the motors based on the load each motor is subjected to. The maximum system pressure must be no greater than the maximum inlet pressure of the first motor.The allowable back pressure rating for a motor must also be considered. In some series circuits the motors must have an external case drain connected. A series connection is desirable when it is important for all the motors to run the same speed such as on a long line conveyor.
SERIES CIRCUIT
PARALLEL CONNECTION
In a parallel connection all of the motor inlets are connected.
This makes the maximum system pressure available to each motor allowing each motor to produce full torque at that pressure. The pump flow is split between the individual motors according to their loads and displacements. If one motor has no load, the oil will take the path of least resistance and all the flow will go to that one motor. The others will not turn. If this condition can occur, a flow divider is recommended to distribute the oil and act as a differential.
NOTE: It is vital that all operating recommendations be followed. Failure to do so could result in injury or death.
SERIES CIRCUIT
NOTE: The motor circuits shown above are for illustration purposes only. Components and circuitry for actual applications may vary greatly and should be chosen based on the application.

PRODUCT TESTING
Performance testing is the critical measure of a motor’s ability to convert flow and pressure into speed and torque. All product testing is conducted using Danfoss state of the art test facility. This facility utilizes fully automated test equipment and custom designed software to provide accurate, reliable test data. Test routines are standardized, including test stand calibration and stabilization of fluid temperature and viscosity, to provide consistent data. The example below provides an explanation of the values pertaining to each heading on the performance chart.

ALLOWABLE BEARING & SHAFT LOADING
This catalog provides curves showing allowable radial loads at points along the longitudinal axis of the motor. They are dimensioned from the mounting flange. Two capacity curves for the shaft and bearings are shown.Avertical line through the centerline of the load drawn to intersect the x-axis intersects the curves at the load capacity of the shaft and of the bearing.
In the example below the maximum radial load bearing rating is between the internal roller bearings illustrated with a solid line. The allowable shaft rating is shown with a dotted line.
The bearing curves for each model are based on labratory analysis and testing results constructed at Danfoss. The shaft loading is based on a 3:1 safety factor and 330 Kpsi tensile strength. The allowable load is the lower of the curves at a given point. For instance, one inch in front of the mounting flange the bearing capacity is lower than the shaft capacity.
In this case, the bearing is the limiting load. The motor user needs to determine which series of motor to use based on their application knowledge.
ISO 281 RATINGS VS. MANUFACTURERS RATINGS
Published bearing curves can come from more than one type of analysis. The ISO 281 bearing rating is an international standard for the dynamic load rating of roller bearings. The rating is for a set load at a speed of 33 1/3 RPM for 500 hours (1 million revolutions). The standard was established to allow consistent comparisons of similar bearings between manufacturers. The ISO 281 bearing ratings are based solely on the physical characteristics of the bearings, removing any manufacturers specific safety factors or empirical data that influences the ratings.
Manufacturers’ ratings are adjusted by diverse and systematic laboratory investigations, checked constantly with feedback from practical experience. Factors taken into account that affect bearing life are material, lubrication, cleanliness of the lubrication, speed, temperature, magnitude of the load and the bearing type.
The operating life of a bearing is the actual life achieved by the bearing and can be significantly different from the calculated life. Comparison with similar applications is the most accurate method for bearing life estimations.

VEHICLE DRIVE CALCULATIONS
When selecting a wheel drive motor for a mobile vehicle, a number of factors concerning the vehicle must be taken into consideration to determine the required maximum motor RPM, the maximum torque required and the maximum load each motor must support. The following sections contain the necessary equations to determine this criteria. An example is provided to illustrate the process.

To determine maximum torque requirement of motor
To choose a motor(s) capable of producing enough torque to propel the vehicle, it is necessary to determine the Total Tractive Effort (TE) requirement for the vehicle. To determine the total tractive effort, the following equation must be used:
TE = RR + GR + FA + DP (lbs or N)
Where:
TE |
= Total tractive effort |
RR |
= Force necessary to overcome rolling resistance |
GR |
= Force required to climb a grade |
FA |
= Force required to accelerate |
DP |
= Drawbar pull required |
The components for this equation may be determined using the following steps:
Step One: Determine Rolling Resistance
Rolling Resistance (RR) is the force necessary to propel a vehicle over a particular surface. It is recommended that the worst possible surface type to be encountered by the vehicle be factored into the equation.
RR = |
GVW x R (lb or N) |
|
1000 |
Where:
GVW= gross (loaded) vehicle weight (lb or kg)
R= surface friction (value from Table 1) Example RR = 15001000 x 22 lbs = 33 lbs

Step Two: Determine Grade Resistance
Grade Resistance (GR) is the amount of force necessary to move a vehicle up a hill or “grade.” This calculation must be made using the maximum grade the vehicle will be expected to climb in normal operation.
To convert incline degrees to % Grade:
% Grade = [tan of angle (degrees)] x 100
GR = |

VEHICLE DRIVE CALCULATIONS
Step Three: Determine Acceleration Force
Acceleration Force (FA) is the force necessary to accelerate from a stop to maximum speed in a desired time.
FA = |
MPH x GVW (lb) |
FA = |
KPH x GVW (N) |
|
22 x t |
|
35.32 x t |
Where:
t = time to maximum speed (seconds)
Example FA = |
5 x 1500 lbs |
= 34 lbs |
|
22 x 10 |
|
Step Four: Determine Drawbar Pull
Drawbar Pull (DP) is the additional force, if any, the vehicle will be required to generate if it is to be used to tow other equipment. If additional towing capacity is required for the equipment, repeat steps one through three for the towable equipment and sum the totals to determine DP.
Step Five: Determine Total Tractive Effort
The Tractive Effort (TE) is the sum of the forces calculated in steps one through three above. On low speed vehicles, wind resistance can typically be neglected.
However, friction in drive components may warrant the addition of 10% to the total tractive effort to insure acceptable vehicle performance.
Step Seven: Determine Wheel Slip
To verify that the vehicle will perform as designed in regards to tractive effort and acceleration, it is necessary to calculate wheel slip (TS) for the vehicle. In special cases, wheel slip may actually be desirable to prevent hydraulic system overheating and component breakage should the vehicle become stalled.
TS = |
W x f x ri |
TS = |
W x f x rm |
|
G |
|
G |
(lb-in per motor) |
(N-m per motor) |
Where:
f= coefficient of friction (see table 2)
W = loaded vehicle weight over driven wheel (lb or N)
Example TS = 425 x .06 x 16 lb-in/motor = 4080 lbs 1
Table 2

Rubber tire on dirt................................. |
0.5 |
Rubber tire on a hard surface....... |
0.6 - 0.8 |
Rubber tire on cement........................... |
0.7 |
TE = RR + GR + FA + DP (lb or N)
Example TE = 33 + 300 + 34 + 0 (lbs) = 367 lbs
Step Six: Determine Motor Torque
The Motor Torque (T) required per motor is the Total Tractive Effort divided by the number of motors used on the machine. Gear reduction is also factored into account in this equation.
T = |
TE x ri |
lb-in per motor |
T = |
TE x rm |
Nm per motor |
|
M x G |
|
|
M x G |
|
Where:
M = number of driving motors
Example T = 367 x 16 lb-in/motor = 2936 lb-in 2 x 1
To determine radial load capacity requirement of motor
When a motor used to drive a vehicle has the wheel or hub attached directly to the motor shaft, it is critical that the radial load capabilities of the motor are sufficient to support the vehicle. After calculating the Total Radial Load (RL) acting on the motors, the result must be
compared to the bearing/shaft load charts for the chosen motor to determine if the motor will provide acceptable load capacity and life.
RL = W2 + ( riT )2 |
lb |
RL = W2 + ( |
T |
)2 kg |
rm |
||||
Example RL = |
4252 + ( 293616 )2 = 463 lbs |
Once the maximum motor RPM, maximum torque requirement, and the maximum load each motor must support have been determined, these figures may then be compared to the motor performance charts and to the bearing load curves to choose a series and displacement to fulfill the motor requirements for the application.

INDUCED SIDE LOAD
In many cases, pulleys or sprockets may be used to transmit the torque produced by the motor. Use of these components will create a torque induced side load on the motor shaft and bearings. It is important that this load be taken into consideration when choosing a motor with sufficient bearing and shaft capacity for the application.

To determine the side load, the motor torque and pulley or sprocket radius must be known. Side load may be calculated using the formula below. The distance from the pulley/sprocket centerline to the mounting flange of the motor must also be determined. These two figures may then be compared to the bearing and shaft load curve of the desired motor to determine if the side load falls within acceptable load ranges.

SPEED SENSORS
Danfoss offers both single and dual element speed sensor options providing a number of benefits to users by incorporating the latest advancements in sensing technology and materials. The 700 & 800 series motors single element sensors provide 60 pulses per revolution with the dual element providing 120 pulses per revolution, with all other series providing 50 & 100 pulses respectively. Higher resolution is especially beneficial for slow speed applications, where more information is needed for smooth and accurate control. The dual sensor option also provides a direction signal allowing end-users to monitor the direction of shaft rotation .
Unlike competitive designs that breach the high pressure area of the motor to add the sensor, the Danfoss speed sensor option utilizes an add-on flange to locate all sensor components outside the high pressure operating environment. This eliminates the potential leak point common to competitive designs. Many improvements were made to the sensor flange including changing the material from cast iron to acetal resin, incorporating a Buna-N shaft seal internal to the flange, and providing a grease zerk, which allows the user to fill the sensor cavity with grease. These improvements enable the flange to withstand the rigors of harsh environments.
Another important feature of the new sensor flange is that it is self-centering, which allows it to remain concentric to the magnet rotor. This produces a consistent mounting location for the new sensor module, eliminating the need to adjust
the air gap between the sensor and magnet rotor. The o- ring sealed sensor module attaches to the sensor flange with two small screws, allowing the sensor to be serviced or upgraded in the field in under one minute. This feature is especially valuable for mobile applications where machine downtime is costly. The sensor may also be serviced without exposing the hydraulic circuit to the atmosphere. Another advantage of the self-centering flange is that it allows users to rotate the sensor to a location best suited to their application. This feature is not available on competitive designs, which fix the sensor in one location in relationship to the motor mounting flange.
