Power Amplifier for Flow Valves

Series ET101

Installation Manual
Electronic module for the control of proportional
throttle valves. The valve opening and its changes
are achieved by command and ramp potentiometers. The measured value (Volts) on the
module is indirectly proportional with the throttle
opening or alternatively the resulting volume flow
Q (l/min).

Features
Modulated output signals to the control solenoid
through four selectable commands and ramp
potentiometers, adjustable
from 0 to 100%.
DIP switch from internal ramp generation to
external ramp setting.
Pulsed low loss amplifier power stage with
supporting constant current control for constant, temperature-independant, solenoid
forces.
Dither generator with applied frequency to
improve static characteristics.
Diagnosis by means of diagnostic sockets as
well as LEDs for indicating working conditions.

Installation Manual

INSTALLATION GUIDE TO ELECTRONIC MODULES

TO PROVISION OF ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY.
Power Supply
The utilized power supply has to comply with the EMC-standards (CE-sign, certificate of conformity).
Parker is offering the following power supplies:
EX00-N01
EX00-N04
EX00-N08

( 2.5 Amp.)
( 5.0 Amp.)
(10.0 Amp.)

Relais and solenoids operating from the same supply circuit as the valve electronics have to be fitted
by surge protection elements.

Wiring Cable
The wires between the installation site of the module and the peripheral units, as power supply, valve
solenoids, command signal source have to be shielded. The following wire sizes must be reached:
power supply AWG 16, other connections AWG 20. The capacity should not exceed a value of approx.
130 pF/m (wire/wire). The maximum cable length is 50 m. No power current lines may be placed within
the wired shielded cables to the electronic module. The cable shield has to be connected to ground
at both ends (see also chapter Grounding). Please be aware of ground loops.

Installation
The module has to be mounted within a conductive, shielded enclosure. Usable is i.e. an EMCapproved control cabinet. A perfect grounding of the enclosure is mandatory (see also chapter
"Grounding).

Grounding
The mounting plate of the valve has to be connected to the grounded metal machine frame. The cable
shields must be tied to ground at the control cabinet. A low-ohmic potential compensation wire has
to be provided between the control cabinet and the machine frame (cable wire >AWG 7 cross section)
to prevent ground loops.
