EFX Electronic Controllers and IO Modules

Eaton EFX electronic controllers and IO modules provide a full range of electronic control solutions. With an array of controller options and IO modules, an EFX system can be created to address any application need. All EFX products are IP67 rated and are built for the harsh mobile and industrial application environment. The EFX line is programmed and configured using the intuitive CONTROL F(x) programming software. Applications: Excavators, forestry, telehandlers, utility vehicles, cranes, ag machinery, paving, and other specialty machines. Specifications: 4 different EFX controllers and 3 IO expansion modules provide analog, digital, and frequency inputs as well as digital, PWM, and currentcontrolled outputs. Each EFX controller has both CANopen and J1939 interfaces.

VFX Display Controllers and LCDs

Eatons VFX controllers provide an operator interface solution for electro-hydraulic systems. The VFX 1000 controller is used for dedicated display control, while the VFX 2000 also provides digital IO for additional controls. The VFX controllers are built for the harsh mobile and industrial application environment and are programmed and configured using the intuitive CONTROL F(x) programming software. There are two LCD display options available for use in conjunction with the VFX controllers. Applications: Excavators, forestry, telehandlers, utility vehicles, cranes, ag machinery, paving, and other specialty machines. Specifications: VFX 1000 & 2000 are used for electronic display control and networked via CAN into electro-hydraulic systems. The VFX 2000 provides an additional 50 digital IO. Two LCD displays, 6.5 in. and 10.4 in. are used in conjunction with either of the VFX controllers for a complete operator interface solution.

SFX High Performance Controllers

The SFX high performance controllers are designed to address applications where control loop times are critical. Whether its a precise closed-loop control or a safety-critical application, the SFX controllers are built to address the demands of complex applications. The SFX controllers are built for the harsh mobile and industrial application environment and is programmed and configured using the intuitive CONTROL F(x) programming software. Applications: Excavators, forestry, telehandlers, utility vehicles, cranes, ag machinery, paving, and other specialty machines. Specifications: The SFX controllers have multiple I/O for analog, digital, and frequency inputs, and digital, PWM, and analog outputs. They also contain a 32 bit processor, a CAN interface and the SFX 2000 has a Time-Triggered Protocol controller for SIL3 safety-critical applications.
