KVEB

Electrical Displacement Control

For Series 90 - PV
BLN-95-9060-4 Issued: November 2003

DESCRIPTION

The KVEB Electrical Displacement Control (EDC) is a two-stage

electrohydraulic pump stroke control which uses mechanical feedback to
establish closed loop control of the swashplate angle of Sauer-Danfoss Series
90 Pumps.

The first stage, the MCV116 Pressure Control Pilot (PCP) is a torque-motor
actuated, double-nozzle flapper valve that produces a differential output
pressure proportional to the applied electrical signal. The second stage uses
the differential pressure to drive its unique spool arrangement and port oil to
the pump servo cylinders. The second-stage spool configuration allows a
null deadband (for machine safety) in the pumps output
while maintaining optimum dynamic response to
control commands.

THEORY OF OPERATION

 APPLICATION
Advantages of the KVE are;
Reduction in deceleration rollout characteristics
Optional input currents (part number specific)
Uses no loctite, which eases repair and internal parts
replacement
The KVE is intended as a direct replacement for the MCV111.
But when 2 or more EDC are used in a vehicle propel
application they should all be of one type or the other, don't
mix them for reasons as described in this application section.
The KVE and MCV use a torque-motor based electrical
actuator scheme that is designed to work with a current (dc
mA) signal, i.e., 75 mA will produce the same pump flow
every time. However, the KVE and MCV have different
electrical coil arrangements, resulting in the following pre-
cautions:
Both are dual coil, but have different coil values (KVE 16
and 20 /MCV 25 and 25 ). This may cause
problems in applications where there is a mix of KVE and
MCV, they are controlled simultaneous and electrically
tied together in a parallel arrangement. In those parallel
circuits the KVE pump will be stroked ahead of the MCV
by approximately 25%. Therefore to ensure that KVE and
MCV pumps stroke at the same rate use a series electri-
cal connection, which will ensure that all EDCs receive
the same electrical current.
The MCV coils are arranged on a T-bar-style armature.
This allows the coils to be physically separated by a small
air gap. The KVE coils are arranged on a stand-up style
armature (which is the same used on all other dual coil
EDCs and servovalves) and they are stacked one atop
the other. In some rare instances, this may induce current
changes resulting from the magnetic effects of one coil on
another (see Precautions When Driving Dual Coil PCPs
With A PWM Drive). Contact Sauer-Danfoss for applica-
tions concerns.
KVEBXXXXX REPLACES KVEAXXXXX
The new control will be identified by a new letter in the control
part number. The control will be designated KVEB, whereas
the previous control p/n was designated as KVEA.
When servicing the new EDC, a different pilot valve part
number will be required (as compared to the existing EDC)
when replacement is necessary.
As a product improvement, design changes to the Series 90
Electric Displacement Control have been made:
1. Improvements in the area of the control spool and feed-
back mechanism.
2. Revisions in the nozzle area/clearance with related parts
of the pilot valve.
BLN-95-9060-4
These changes will not affect form or fit. In nearly all cases,
function is not affected. There is one exception: When one
side of the pilot valve is tapped to utilize the absolute pressure
to pilot external devices such as a one line motor control (see
details below).
1. Abnormal case drain pressures.
2. Oil cleanliness.
This change went into effect January 1, 1999. Various pump
frame sizes may incorporate this change at different times
dependent upon the manufacturing location and initial con-
trol availability.
One line motor controls: It is always best to use a two line
motor control when phasing a variable motor hydraulically
with a Series 90 pumps (via the X1 and X2 ports). Applica-
tions using only a one line hydraulic control rely on controlling
the variable motor with pressure from only one of the EDC
ports, either X1 or X2, but not both. The pump phasing in
these applications will be adversely affected by this EDC
change. Although the delta pressure (X1 - X2) versus coil
current is not affected by this change, the individual gage
pressures at X1 and X2 are significantly reduced. Depending
on fluid temperature and viscosity, and the pump charge
pressure setting, this reduction in gage pressures will be in
the range of 60 - 80 psig (current range of 120 - 160 psig).
If no change is made to the motor control threshold, and/or
ramp in a one-line controlled motor, the motor shift will not
occur until coil current reaches much higher levels. In fact, it
may not even be possible to fully shift the motor with any coil
current level. Therefore, any applications phasing a one-line
hydraulically controlled motor with a Series 90 pump with one
of the above controls, the motor threshold and/or ramp levels
must be changed, and coordinated with the timing of the
Series 90 pump EDC change. In the case of Series 51 motors
with one line controls, the threshold setting, and likely the
threshold spring and ramp spring will have to be changed.
Please contact Sauer-Danfoss Applications Engineering for
assistance in determining the new motor specifications re-
quired.
Since the delta pressure versus coil current relationship is not
affected by this nozzle change, the phasing of motors with
two line controls (controls which change motor displacement
based on the difference between X1 and X2) are not affected.

 CONTROL OPTIONS
In the many industrial processes where flammable materials are handled, any leak or spillage may lead to an explosive
atmosphere. To protect both property and personnel, precautions must be taken to ensure that this atmosphere cannot be
ignited. The areas at risk are known as hazardous areas and the materials that are commonly involved include crude oil and
its derivatives, alcohol, natural and synthetic process starch, grain, fibers and flyings.

Intrinsic safety is based on the principle of restricting the electrical energy available in hazardous-area circuits such that any
sparks or hot surfaces that may occur as a result of electrical faults are too weak to cause ignition. Factory mutual Research
(FM) has approved the following model listed below for use in Class I, II, or III, Division 1, Group C, D, F, and G hazardous
locations as defined by the National Electrical code, NFPA-70 when used with approved barriers. This device is also factory
Mutual certified for use in Division 2, Group C, D, F, G. If a given application requires only Division 2 approval, an inline barrier
may bot be required.

A suppression circuit is incorporated in the PCP torque motor cover but by itself does not insure intrinsic safety. An additional
suppression circuit (Zener barrier) must be connected in series with the valve coils. The Zener barrier and electrical controller
must be isolated from the hazardous area either through use of a purge enclosure or mounted in a safe area. The intrinsically
safe device enclosure grounding terminal is shown in the illustration of the KVEBS 1499 on the first page. Electrical connections

(typically by as much as 50%), thus altering the re-

duty cycle, both peak and average current into the driven
coil may strongly affect the coil's L/R (inductance/resis-
tance) time constant, potentially reducing both accuracy
and linearity. The effects vary considerably with valve
type and with temperature and are quite different be-
tween Sauer-Danfoss MCV116 and MCV110. PWM
drivers often require "current feedback" to maintain
sufficient accuracy as the temperature varies over the
operating range.

2. Strip back the insulation 5,5 millimeters on both wires.
3. Push a ribbed cable seal over each of the wires with the
smaller diameter shoulder of the seals toward the wire
tip. Select the pair of seals that fits tightly over the wires.
The distance from the tip of the wires of the first (nearest)
rib should be 9.5 millimeters. Thus the insulation should
just protrude beyond the seal.
4. Select the larger of the two sets of pins, as measured at
Dimension A (see the Dimension A drawing), if using
14-16 gauge wire. Choose the smaller if using 18-20
gauge. Place the wire into the socket so that the seal
edge is pushed through and extends slightly beyond the
circular tabs that hold it in place. Crimp in the locations
shown in the Packard Connector Crimp drawing with a
Packard 12014254 crimp tool. The distance from the
back of the tangs to the furthest rib may not exceed
19,5 mm.
WIRING (continued)

5. Manually insert the assembled wires into the back end
(large hole) of the plastic housing. Push until the wire
detents with an audible click, then pull back slightly to
ensure proper seating (Observe the proper phasing of
the wires when installing: Black wire to A hole, Red
wire to B, Black to C and Red to D). Terminals may
be removed from the connector bodies with a Packard
12014012 removal tool.
7. Plug the shroud connector from the valve into the tower
connector just constructed. They are sealed with a
quadruple plug seal over the quadruple barrel of the
tower assembly. The two connector halves should
detent into each other. See the Packard Connector
Parts drawing.

6. Swing the holder down into the detented position to trap

the wires in the housing. The third rib should be sealed
into the housing.

Exercise care when placing the valve on a surface before
mounting on a transmission. Dropping or otherwise force-
fully setting the valve down may damage the pin.
Before mounting the KVEB, remove the manual control or the
blanking plate that comes with the pump. First thoroughly
clean all external surfaces of the pump with steam or solvent.
Then remove the six hex head cap screws from the housing
using a 5 mm internal hex wrench. Lift the manual control or
plate from the pump.
Before the new control is installed it is recommended that a
new mounting gasket be installed. If going from a manual
control to an EDC the same mounting bolts can be used. If
going from a blanking plate to an EDC new mounting bolts are
required because of the different lengths. To help avoid a
mounting problem it may be necessary to order an EDC
mounting kit. See Ordering Information.

The KVEB EDC cannot be hydraulically connected with
another device through the servo ports (X1 and X2). Do
not disconnect the SAE servo port fittings for this pur-
pose. Doing so may cause the EDC to go on stroke. The
fittings are to be used only for troubleshooting purposes.
When hydraulic connections are required, such as for a
staging function, the MCV114S must be used. Also an
orifice (Sauer-Danfoss orifice fitting part number
9002875-0039) must be located in each of the hydraulic
connections. See Ames Bulletin No. 9104 for details.

TO INSTALL THE NEW CONTROL
1. Place a new gasket on the pump housing. If a charge
pressure control orifice is used ensure that the orifice
and spring are in the proper position in the control.
2. While setting the control into position, engage the pin on
the control linkage into the mating hole in the link
attached to the pump swashplate.
3. With the control in position against the pump housing,
pin engagement can be check by one of two methods:
a. Move control assembly left and right from center
position, slight resistance will be noted if properly
engaged.
b. Place a finger under the control connector and lift
away form pump housing.
If control tilts away more than approximately 1/4 to 3/8 of
an inch,, the pin is not engaged.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 in case of non engagement.

To adjust neutral requires operating the pump. Take the
necessary safety precautions, such as having
unnecessary personnel stand away from the machine.
Maximum system pressure may occur upon start-up,
and the machine may move. Ensure that the operator is
not in a position to be injured should the machine move.
5. Warm the system up for several minutes to bleed air.
6. Slowly increase the prime mover speed to rated rpm.
7. If the transmission operates as indicated by motor shaft
rotation, reduce speed to idle. Using a 4 mm internal hex
wrench, slowly turn the null adjustment screw clockwise
or counterclockwise until the transmission does not
operate. Repeat step 6. Note that charge pressure
should drop with forward or reverse stroking of the pump
swashplate due to the shifting of the shuttle valve in the
motor manifold. Slowly turn the null adjustment screw
clockwise until charge pressure decreases.

going into stroke).
7. If the transmission operates as indicated by motor shaft
rotation, reduce speed to idle. Using a 3 mm internal hex
wrench, slowly turn the null adjustment screw clockwise
or counterclockwise until the transmission does not
operate. Repeat step 6. Note that charge pressure

adjustment screw counterclockwise, observing the
wrench angle rotation, until charge pressure decreases
again (charge pressure will rise in neutral and drop when
going into stroke).
9. Turn the adjustment screw clockwise half the amount of
the turn observed in step 8. This should be the center of
neutral.
10. Hold the adjustment screw and securely tighten the hex
lock nut on the adjustment screw to 14-18 foot-pounds.
Note that if a motor is used that does not have a manifold,
neutral should be adjusted (steps 8 - 10) by observing
the motor shaft rotation without a load.
11. Stop the prime mover.
12. Reconnect the electrical signal source.
13. Run the system briefly to ensure that it operates
proportionally on both sides of null. Swashplate
movement can be verified by watching motor shaft
rotation without a load.

6. Verify that wire to pin connections are correct before
soldering wires. Also ensure that the connector gasket
(Item 3) is in place before soldering.
7a. For the MS style connector, ensure that the cups have
sufficient solder (approximately level). If additional
solder is required, place solder iron against the base of
the cup and add solder. While solder is still liquid, place
wire in the cup, remove iron and let cool for several
seconds while holding wire firmly.
7b. For the Packard style connector, the wire should extend
around and contact the terminal post for at least 180 (1/
2 wrap to a maximum of 270). When ready to solder,
heat the terminal and add solder, remove iron, and let
cool for several seconds while holding wire firmly.
8. After soldering, ensure that terminals and wires do not
contact one another.
9. If silicone oil is to be added, do so at this step with the
connector not yet attached to cover. Tilt cover upward
and add 45-cc of oil from container. The container (P/N
K21436) holds enough for 3 fills.
10. Before attaching the connector to the cover, rotate
connector CW two turns. This will bundle the wires
together, finishing with the notch up when viewed from
the outward side of the MS connector, and lead wires
down for Packard connector (see page 11). Insert
connector screws and torque to 8-10 inlb (11-13 Nm).

2. Loosen the null adjust lock nut using 13-mm wrench.
3. With a 4-mm internal hex wrench, turn the null adjustment
screw CCW 10 turns.
4. Move the link arm back and forth to eliminate any
binding. Using a bladed type screw driver, place it under
the main adjust and lift up until the 3-pin link/main adjust
assembly lifts away from the housing.
5. Note the 1-pin link, barrel, and guide shaft are also
removed at this time if changing them is required. When
installing, ensure that the ball detents of the barrel align
with the internal spool sections. Then tighten guide shaft
holddown screws to 30 3 in lbs.
6. Before installing the new link assembly, ensure that it is
the correct one for the pump frame size. The link arm
should be stamped per its frame size.
7. Installing the link/main adjust assembly requires the
large spring to be installed at the same time. Ensure
engagement of the link pin into the 1-pin link and that the
spring is properly seated.
8. Turn the null adjustment screw CW the same number of
turns from Step 3. To help ensure a positive EDC null,
the 3-pin link should be aligned approximately with the
neutral adjust screw as shown in the drawing. While
holding the null adjustment screw firmly, tighten the lock
nut.
9. Check for any binding by moving the 3-pin link back and
forth several times.
