Electrical Connection

The electrical connection of the valve takes place
by one common cable, which is coupled to the
integrated electronic driver by a central connector
assembly.

The connection Code 0 as well as Code 7 requires
a 6 + PE female connector EN 175201-804.

The female connector has to be ordered

separately under article nr. 5004072.

A female connector with metal housing is
required! Plastic made models may create
function problems due to insufficient EMC-

characteristics.
The connecting cable has to comply to the follow­ing specification:

Cable type control cable, flexible,
7 conductors, overall braid
shield
Cross section min. AWG16
Outer dimension 8...12 mm
Cable length max. 50 m

For cable lengths > 50 m consult Parker.

The connection cable is coupled to the female
connector by solder joints.

Skinning lengths for the connecting cable:

The connection Code 5 requires a 11 + PE female
connector EN 175201-804.

The female connector has to be ordered

separately under article nr. 5004711.

A female connector with metal housing is
required! Plastic made models may create
function problems due to insufficient EMC­characteristics.

The connecting cable has to comply to the follow­ing specification:

Cable type control cable, flexible,
8 conductors, overall braid
shield
Cross section min. AWG16
Outer dimension 12...15 mm
Cable length max. 50 m

For cable lengths > 50 m consult Parker.

The connection cable is coupled to the female
connector by crimp contacts.

Skinning lengths for the connecting cable:

For the workmanlike termination of the crimp
contacts the tool # 932 507-001 – supplier:
Hirschmann – is required.

Do not disconnect cable socket under tension!

D_1FE 5715-688 UK CM 18.01.2019

The shielding has to be assembled according the
outline below:

9

Parker Hannifin Corporation

Operation Manual

Pilot Operated Proportional DC Valve

Series D*1FE

The backshell nut of the cable gland has to be
tighten with a suitable tool. The target value for the
tightening torque is 4 Nm. Tighten the cap nut with
a torque of approx. 5 Nm after attaching the female
connector on the socket outlet.

Incomplete tightening of backshell nut resp.

cap nut may result in automatic release of the
connection as well as degradation of the
water tightness.

Follow the “instructions for use“ for instal-

lation of female connectors made by other
kind of brands!

The cable connection to the female connector

has to take place by qualified personnel! A
short between individual conductors resp. to
the connector housing , bad soldering as well
as improper shield connection may result in
malfunction and breakdown of the valve.

The mounting surface of the valve has to be

carefully tied to the earth grounded machine
frame. The earth ground wire from the valve
connecting cable as well as the cable shield
have to be tied to the protective earth termi­nal within the control unit. It is necessary to
use a low ohmic potential connection between
control unit and machine frame to prevent
earth loops (cross section AWG 6).

Electrical Interfacing

Supply Voltage

The supply voltage for the valve has to cover the
range of 22...30 V. The residual ripple may not
exceed 5% eff.

The applied power supply must comply to the
relevant regulations (DIN EN 61558) and must
carry a CE-mark. The operating voltage for
the valve must be free of inductive surges.
Do not exceed the max. value of 30V! Non­observance of this rule may result in perma­nent damaging of the valve.

The increased inrush current of the valve
should be considered when selecting the
power supply. A stabilized power supply with
overcurrent limiting feature should not be
used. Due to the inrush current of the valve
the current limit circuit may respond prema­turely and create problems during energizing
of the supply voltage.

The operation of the valve is blocked if the
supply voltage polarity is interchanged.

Each valve requires a separate pre-fuse of 4
Amp time lag. Non-observance of this instruc­tion may create irreparable damage of valve
resp. incorporated system parts.

Operation Manual

Pilot Operated Proportional DC Valve

Series D*1FE

Enable input (only for Code 5 / 11+PE as well
as Code 7 / 6+PE)

A signal voltage enables the actuator drive of the
valve. Continuous operation of the valve requires a
permanent voltage 5...30 V (i.e. the supply voltage).
In case of disabling the signal the valve will reach its
power down position spring-actuated independently
from the command signal value.

The enable function represents no safety ar-

rangement against unwanted valve opera-tion
in terms of rules for accident prevention! To
block the valve function under all conditions,
more advanced steps are necessary, i.e. the
installation of additional safety check valves.

Command signal input

The spool stroke behaves proportional to the com­mand signal amplitude.

The command input signal needs to be filtered

as well as free of inductive surges and modu­lations. Due to the sensitivity of the valve a
high signal quality is recommended, this will
prevent malfunction.

Incorrect signal amplitude levels may disturb

the functionality and can damage the valve.

The option 4...20 mA uses the “3.6 mA“ condi-

tion as breakdown-information. This means
the presence of an evaluable failure informa­tion if the input signal line is interrupted. In
this case the actuator drive will be switched
off. The drive will switch on when the input
signal reaches a value of 3.8 mA, it switches
off when the command falls below 3.6 mA.
This determination follows the NAMUR­specification NE43.

NAMUR is an association of users of process
control technology.

Diagnostics output

A diagnostics signal is available. Its voltage repre­sents the operating condition of the valve.

The output may drive a load of max. 5 mA.

Exceeding of this limit leads to malfunction.

5. Operating Instructions

Preferred Hydraulic Initial State

For valves with zero lap spools, distinction

must be made between hydraulic neutral
position and power-down position. Neutral
position is taken at neutral input signal, cor­responding to zero position of the hydraulic
symbol. When the valve is switched off – no
supply voltage, no enable, current signal
(code S) < 3,8 mA – zero lap valves take the
power down position (approx. 10 % opening)
according to the ordering code. For valves with
overlap spools, neutral position and power
down position are the same (zero position).

Supply pressure must be ensured before valve

is energized.

Solenoid Current Monitoring

If the actuator current time interval exceeds 10
seconds, the actuator is switched off to prevent
overheating. For normal operating conditions this
state will not reached, but it may occur with a con­taminated sluggish valve.

In this case the reason for the contamination

should be repaired (hydraulic fluid exchange,

filtration review, valve flushing).

The overcurrent shutoff condition may be resetted
by the actions below:

Code 0: Temporary disconnection of the supply
voltage.

Code 5: Temporary disconnection of the enable
signal.

Code 7: Temporary disconnection of the enable
signal.

The shutoff of the VCD actuator due to over-

load will be signaled via the diagnostics

output.

ProPxD parameterizing software

The ProPxD software permits comfortable param­eter setting for the module electronic. Via the clearly
arranged entry mask the parameters can be noticed
and modified. Storage of complete parameter sets
is possible as well as printout or record as a text
file for further documentation.

See www.parker.com/isde section “Support” for
free software download. Please check periodical
for updates.

Program installation

Please check before installation if the above hard­ware requirements are met. If your PC has already
stored an older version of the “ProPxD” program,
it has to be deinstalled by using the Windows® ­system control feature.

Program installation sequence:

• terminate the execution of other programs

• execute the file “setup.exe”

• follow the instructions on the screen

Answer the question, if an older version should be
overwritten, with “ok”. During the installation you
may change destination drive resp. installation
path, if needed.

Please answer “ok” if at the end of the installation
the program reports any system information. After
successful installation the desktop display shows
the ProPxD icon for starting the program.

Software Operating

Brief instruction for first startup:

• Connect the valve electronic to the supply volt­age.

• Connect the valve electronic to a PC via the
parametrizing cable.

• Start the operating program.

• After displaying the program resp. data base ver­sion a program window opens and the connected
valve will be automatically identified (possibly a
manual identification via the button “Receive all”
is necessary).

• Select the desired version via the menu “Op­tions/Optionen” with the menu item “Language/
Sprache”.

• The valve specific default parameters are already
available within the parameter table.

• Parameter changes are possible via mouse or
the arrow buttons on the bottom left within the
program screen, also the parameter values may
be edited via the keyboard.

• Modified parameters will be stored via the “Enter”
key or via the button “Update list”.

• Parameters have to be nonvolatile stored on the
valve via the button “save parameter”.

• The chosen parameters may be optionally stored
on the PC via the “File”-menu with the menu item
“Save as”, data retrieving is always possible via
the function “Load file”

D_1FE 5715-688 UK CM 18.01.2019

Extended functions:

The user software is shared into 2 parameter
ranges:

• basic mode

• expert mode

For normal startup the basic mode is sufficient. It
permits the setting of all application specific pa­rameters to match the valve function with the task
setting.

In case of special applications the valve parameters
may be adapted via the expert mode. The operating
mode may be selected from the “Options”- menu
and remains after terminating and re-start of the
program.

Changing of expert parameters is only permit-

ted for qualified personnel. Incorrect settings
may lead to malfunction! In case of parameter

changes shut the drive down!
To prevent an unauthorized access for the expert
mode, a pass word is requested. The name is
“parker” and cannot be changed. Thus additionally
to the button “Default” for loading of the default
parameters, the button “Send parameter” appears
in the “Expert”-operating mode. This button trans­mits only the setting of one single parameter to
the connected valve. Thus a quick tuning of single
parameters is permitted during the setup.

A horizontal bar graph readout between

the communication buttons shows the data

transfer state.

Because the ProPxD program has also

without connection to the valve functionality,

a manual pre-selection of the parameters is

possible. After selection of the valve type via

the menu “Options” the parameters may be

set and stored for later transmission.
Note the design series while selection of the

valve!
The “File” menu provides the functions “Printer
setup”, “Print preview” and “Print”. The print pre­view includes the option for parameter set storage
as text file (format.txt) prior to further processing.
The “Options” menu provides also the selection of
the RS232 interface port via the menu item “Port”.
Via the menu item “Load file” previously stored
parameter sets may be loaded.

During parameter loading from the electronics memory the preset
parameters from the left hand screen display may be rejected or
maintained.

In principle, parameters dedicated to a type which deviates from
the connected valve may be edited. However, for data transmitting
the correct valve has to be connected. If parameters will be loaded
from a valve which deviates from the selected one, the parame­ters from the left hand side screen display of the program will be
overwritten.

The wrong valve type has been selected from the database, afte­rwards the function “send all” has been executed.

Air Bleeding of Hydraulic System

During initial startup, after an oil change as well as
after the opening of lines or valves the hydraulic
system must be air bleeded.

Filter

The function and lifetime of the valve are strongly
affected by the cleanliness of the fluid.

purity level class of 18/16/13 acc. ISO4406 is
required.

Flushing

It is recommended to flush the pipelines by short
circuiting the pressure and return lines. This prevents
the installation dirt from entering the valve.

6. Trouble Shooting

Basis of troubleshooting is always a systematic
approach.

For suspect of a sluggish spool the valve may

be flushed with clean pressure fluid.

malfunction at hydraulic load runtime

- generally no function

- high frequent oscillation

- low frequent oscillation

- one way operation only

- speed variations at unchanging command

- different speeds depending on travel direction

- speed too low

- drifting without command

- poor dynamic
