Electronics for Hydraulic Systems – Frequently Asked Questions

What are electronic components for hydraulic systems and what main functions do they perform?

Electronic components for hydraulic systems are controllers and electronic tools for precise, efficient regulation of hydraulic equipment. They control hydraulic actuators such as valves and pumps, convert control commands into electrical signals, and thus enable exact regulation of movements and forces.

What specific types of electronic components are used in hydraulic systems?

  • Steering column switches: e.g. direction selectors (forward/neutral/reverse) for off-road vehicles, often with IP67.
  • Setpoint modules: Programmable specification of control variables with up to 16 setpoints and ramp times.
  • Pump controllers: Swashplate angle, pressure, and power control; optimized control functions and advanced fault diagnostics.
  • Power amplifiers: Actuation of proportional valves; digital, reproducible settings; free parameterization of ramps/frequencies; robust housings.
  • Positioning controllers: Digital units with integrated power stage, analog feedback signals, and freely definable motion profiles.
  • Hour meters: Digital LCD devices for operating time recording, specifically for off-road vehicles.
  • Radio remote controls: Wireless operation of hydraulic power units over defined ranges.

In which application areas are these hydraulic electronic components typically used?

Typical areas of use are off-road vehicles, agricultural and forestry machinery, municipal vehicles, telehandlers, as well as other mobile and stationary hydraulic systems.

  • Direction control
  • Proportional hydraulic functions
  • Stepless adjustment of attachments
  • Automated motion sequences

What advantages do modern electronic components for hydraulic systems offer?

  • High precision & repeatability thanks to digital control and programmable setpoints.
  • Flexibility through parameterizable ramp times and adaptable input variables.
  • Robustness via weatherproof housings with high protection classes (e.g. IP67).
  • Easy commissioning & diagnostics with parameterization software (e.g. WPC-300) and extended functional checks.
  • Integration capability into CAN-Bus, LIN-Bus structures.
  • Optimized control functions for performance and efficiency.

How are these electronic components designed and manufactured to meet the demands of harsh environments?

The components are housed in weatherproof mobile enclosures and use robust connectors (e.g. DEUTSCH). PCBs are designed for EMC protection and high electrical load capacity. Manufacturing meets high quality standards for applications with dust, moisture, and vibrations (off-road/agriculture).

What maintenance recommendations exist for electronic components in hydraulic systems?

  • Regular visual and functional inspections.
  • Checking connectors and power supply.
  • Use of integrated fault diagnostics/functional checks for fast troubleshooting.
  • Software updates & re-parameterization via parameterization software.

What influences the service life of these components and how can it be maximized?

Service life is primarily determined by vibrations, environmental influences, voltage fluctuations, and load. High-quality components with IP67 and robust connectors achieve several thousand operating hours in mobile use. Careful selection and consistent maintenance maximize service life.

What should be considered when selecting the right electronic components for a hydraulic system?

  • Application area: Off-road, agriculture, municipal technology, etc.
  • Protection class: Suitable for the environment (e.g. IP67).
  • Electrical specifications: Appropriate voltage and current consumption for the vehicle/machine system.
  • Control functions: Number of driving positions, programmable setpoints, input signals.
  • Compatibility: With existing controllers and hydraulic components.
  • User convenience & diagnostics: Availability of software tools for easy operation and troubleshooting.
