1. INTRODUCTION
This manual provides instructions and procedures necessary to install,
operate and troubleshoot the Moog 760 Series Industrial Servovalve.
Troubleshooting instructions are outlined so that only the specific component(s)
suspected of failure may be identified.
2. OPERATION
The Moog 760 Series Industrial Servovalve consists of a polarized electrical
torque motor and two stages of hydraulic power amplification .The motor
armature extends into the air gaps of the magnetic flux circuit and is supported
in this position by a flexure tube member.The flexure tube acts as a seal
between the electromagnetic and hydraulic sections of the valve.The two motor
coils surround the armature, one on each side of the flexure tube.
760 Series Installation and
Operation Instruction
Electrohydraulic Servovalve
The flapper of the first stage hydraulic amplifier is rigidly attached to the
midpoint of the armature.The flapper extends through the flexure tube and
passes between two nozzles, creating two variable orifices between the nozzle
tips and the flapper.The pressure controlled by the flapper and nozzle variable
orifice is fed to the end areas of the second stage spool.
The second stage is a conventional 4-way spool design in which output
flow from the valve, at a fixed valve pressure drop, is proportional to spool
displacement from the null position.A cantilever feedback spring is fixed to the
flapper and engages a slot at the center of the spool. Displacement of the spool
deflects the feedback spring which creates a force on the armature/flapper
assembly.
Input signal induces a magnetic charge in the armature and causes a
deflection of the armature and flapper.This assembly pivots about the flexure
tube and increases the size of one nozzle orifice and decreases the size of the
other.
This action creates a differential pressure from one end of the spool to the
other and results in spool displacement.The spool displacement causes a force in
the feedback wire which opposes the original input signal torque. Spool
movement continues until the feedback wire force equals the input signal force.

DISASSEMBLY, MAINTENANCE, OR REPAIR OTHER THAN IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE

3. HYDRAULIC SYSTEM PREPARATION
To prolong servovalve operational life and to reduce hydraulic system
maintenance, it is recommended that the hydraulic fluid be kept at a cleanliness
level of ISO DIS 4406 Code 16/13 maximum, 14/11 recommended.The most
effective filtration scheme incorporates the use of a kidney loop or “off-line”
filtration as one of the major filtration components.The filter for the “off-line”
filtration scheme should be a B3≥75 filter for maximum effectiveness.
Upon system startup, and prior to mounting the servovalve, the entire
hydraulic system should be purged of built-in contaminating particles by an
adequate flushing.The servovalve should be replaced by a flushing manifold and
the hydraulic circuit powered up under conditions of fluid temperature and fluid
velocity reasonably simulating normal operating conditions. New system filters
are installed during the flushing process whenever the pressure drop across the
filter element becomes excessive.The flushing processes should turn over the
fluid in the reservoir between fifty to one hundred times.
To maintain a clean hydraulic system, the filters must be replaced on a
periodic basis. It is best to monitor the pressure drop across the filter assembly
and replace the filter element when the pressure drop becomes excessive. In
addition to other filters that are installed in the hydraulic circuit, it is
recommended that a large capacity, low pressure ß3≥75 filter be installed in the
return line. This filter will increase the interval between filter element
replacement and greatly reduce the system contamination level.
4. INSTALLATION
The Moog 760 Series Industrial Servovalve may be mounted in any
position, provided the servovalve pressure, piston, and return ports match
respective manifold ports.
The mounting pattern and port location of the servovalve is shown on
figure 4.The servo-valve should be mounted with 5/16-18 x 1.75 inch long,
socket head cap screws.Apply a light film of oil to the screw threads and torque
to 96 inch pounds.
Wire mating connector for desired coil configuration and polarity. Thread
connector to valve.
Adjustment Procedure
Using a 3/8inch offset box wrench, loosen the self-locking fitting until the
null adjustor pin can be rotated. (This should usually be less than 1/2 turn).
DO NOT remove self-locking fitting. Insert a 3/32inch Allen wrench in null
adjustor pin. Use the 3/32Allen wrench to rotate the mechanical null adjustor
pin to obtain desired flow null.Torque self-locking fitting to 57 inch lbs.
Note:
Clockwise rotation of null adjustor pin produces open loop flow from port B to port A.

5. MECHANICAL NULL ADJUSTMENT
It is often desirable to adjust the flow null of a servovalve independent of
other system parameters.The “mechanical null adjustment” on the Moog 760
Series servovalve allows at least ±20% adjustment of flow null.
The “mechanical null adjustor” is an eccentric bushing retainer pin, located
above the “return” port designation on the valve body (see Figure 2) which,
when rotated, provides control of the bushing position. Mechanical feedback
elements position the spool relative to the valve body for a given input signal.
Therefore, a movement of the bushing relative to the body changes the flow null.

6.GENERAL SERVICING RECOMMENDATIONS
a. Disconnect the electrical lead to the servovalve.
b. Relieve the hydraulic system of residual pressure.
c. Remove the servovalve.
7.TROUBLESHOOTING CHART
The following troubleshooting chart list potential troubles encountered, probable causes, and remedies.
Potential Trouble
Servovalve does not follow input command
signal. (Actuator or components are
stationary or creeping slowly).
High threshold. (Jerky, possible oscillatory
or "hunting" motion in closed loop system).
Poor response. (Servovalve output lags
electrical command signal).
High Null Bias, (High input current required
to maintain hydraulic cylinder or motor
stationary).

8. FILTER ASSEMBLY REPLACEMENT
a. Remove eight socket head cap screws and lockwashers using a 5/32inch
Allen wrench. Remove end caps.
b. Remove O-Rings from end caps.
c. Remove filter plug and inlet orifice assembly from both sides of body.
Note: 2-56 screw threads into the filter plug and inlet orifice assembly.
Remove filter.The inlet orifice assemblies are matched to each other and
are therefore interchangeable.
Note: These assemblies seat in body and cannot go through bore during
removal.
d. Remove O-Rings from filter plugs and O-Rings from inlet orifice
assemblies.
e. Visually inspect filter orifice assemblies for damage or foreign matter.
f. Discard O-Rings and filters.
g. Install O-Rings on filter plugs, and O-Rings on inlet orifices.
h. Install filter, inlet orifice assembly, and a filter plug in body. Inlet
orifice assembly pilots into filter. Install the other inlet orifice assembly and
filter plug into other end of filter. Inlet orifice assemblies are
interchangeable.
i. Install O-Rings on end caps.
j. Install end caps on body and install eight socket head cap screws and
lockwashers.Torque the screws to 57 inch-pounds.
9. FUNCTIONAL CHECKOUT AND CENTERING
a. Install servovalve on hydraulic system or test fixture, but do not connect
electrical lead.
b. Apply required system pressure to servovalve and visually examine for
evidence of external leakage. If leakage is present and cannot be rectified
by replacing O-Rings, remove the discrepant component and return for
repair or replacement.
Note: If the system components are drifting or hardover, adjust
the mechanical null of the servovalve.
c. Connect electrical lead to servovalve and check phasing in accordance
with system requirements.
10. AUTHORIZED REPAIR FACILITIES
Moog does not authorize any facilities other than Moog or Moog subsidiaries to
repair its servovalves. It is recommended you contact Moog at (716) 652-2000
to locate your closest Moog repair facility. Repair by an independent
(unauthorized) repair house will result in voiding the Moog warranty and could
lead to performance degradation or safety problems.
