Hitachi Energy 560NMD01 Managed Layer 2 Switch

Applications

The 560NMD01 Top Hat DIN-Rail Appliance is a managed Layer 2 switch.

It provides four Fast Ethernet RJ45 ports with automatic MDI/X (Automatic Cross Detection and Correction) and a 2-wire SDSL interface.

The SDSL interface can be used to connect sites with distances of up to 20 km (copper cable, 0.8 mm diameter).

Thanks to the (fast) Spanning Tree Protocol, the switch enables a redundant topology.

For documentation purposes, Ethernet ports are labelled with numbers 1-4. There are no special uplink ports. All ports are functionally identical.

The SDSL ports are externally www.cniacs.com connected via backplane or expansion connectors. The connection (link) and speed status of all Ethernet and SDSL ports is indicated by LEDs on the front panel.

The switch “learns” Ethernet addresses by analysing received frames.

The addresses learned in this way are stored in the address table (up to 2048 entries) and are used to forward the frames to the correct interface.

Frames are forwarded to all interfaces only if they are received with a wide or multicast address, or if the destination address is not found in the address table.

If an entry in the address table is not acknowledged by the corresponding received frame, it is deleted after a maximum of 304 seconds (default).

IEEE 802.1Q-compliant VLAN configuration is supported. Frames can be transparently forwarded or assigned to (access or trunk) VLANs.

The switch can support quality of service if IEEE 802.1p-compliant frame formats are used. The switch can divide outbound frames into up to four priority-controlled queues.

The device has a wide-range power supply, requiring a voltage between 24 and 60 V. The switch can be used with a wide range of power supplies.

The Ethernet interface, SDSL, RS232 (Con 0) and the expansion bus interface (Ext) can be plugged in during operation (hot-swap).

MOOG Dual PWM Amplifier G123-814

Application Notes

Scope

These application notes are a guide to applying the G123-814 Dual PWM Amplifier. They show you how to install, connect and adjust the PWM amplifier.

They do not cover how to select a proportional valve or how to design a closed-loop system.

Instructions

The G123-814 Dual PWM Amplifier is used to drive two coils of a three position 24V solenoid proportional valve.

It is designed for low-end closed-loop www.cniacs.com applications. It allows the use of very low cost proportional valves where much more expensive servo valves would normally be required.

Using it with the companion servo amplifier G122-824 and a proportional valve produces an economical closed loop solution.

Applicability

The G123-814-001 has a closed loop configuration and is used with Hydrolux WP series proportional valves.

Important specifications considered include 24V @ 800mA coil and 12% spool overlap.

Output current is 25% higher than rated to ensure that maximum flow is not unduly affected by valve production tolerances and spool Bernoulli forces.

Deadband compensation circuitry to eliminate spool overlap has been optimised for flow bench and field applications. Deadband compensation is not user adjustable. Applying this amplifier

Apply this amplifier to other valves with the same specifications to obtain the same performance as Hydrolux valves.

The G12-814 is not suitable for conventional open-loop proportional valve applications. A zero flow condition is highly unlikely as the deadband compensation circuit cancels out spool overlap.

Zero flow conditions are unlikely with zero coil current as the deadband compensation circuit cancels out spool overlap.

Mounting

Installation consists of mounting a horizontal DIN rail to the vertical rear surface of an industrial steel enclosure.

The rail release clips on the G123-814 should face downward to allow front panel and terminal markings to be clearly readable and to allow cooling airflow to the internal electronics.

An important consideration for module placement is electromagnetic interference (EMI) from other equipment in the enclosure.

For example, VFs and AC servo drives generate high levels of EMI. be sure to check other equipment for EMC compliance before placing it near the G123-814.

Cooling

Vents at the top and bottom of the G123-814 chassis provide cooling for internal electronic equipment. These vents should be kept clear.

It is important to ensure that the equipment below does not generate hot exhaust gases that could heat the G123-814.

Electrohydraulic operation

Hydraulic pilot spool with coil Proportional electrohydraulic control is usually generated by a controller or electronic actuator.

The controller or electronic actuator regulates the current supplied to the valve’s solenoid coil based on a reference signal from an input device.

The current produces a magnetic field that moves the armature, which in turn moves the hydraulic spool or spool of the pilot section, or in some cases acts directly on the spool.

The coils all have resistance, which usually varies with temperature. For good electro-hydraulic control, it is necessary to be able to regulate the current to accommodate temperature/resistance variations.

PWM

The proportional control of a valve depends on the use of a PWM signal. The frequency used is constant and usually depends on the design of the valve.

The percentage of time that the output is high or “on” during each frequency cycle is called the modulation ratio (MR).

If the output is “on” 50% of the time during each cycle, the modulation ratio is 50%.

The apparent voltage is approximately half of the system voltage, which drives a certain amount of current through the coil, resulting in hydraulic pressure and flow.

The system voltage and coil resistance affect the current through the coil. The higher the apparent voltage, the higher the current through the fixed resistance.

As the temperature of the coil increases, so does its resistance.

Since coil resistance varies with temperature, the current through the coil varies with temperature even if the voltage remains constant.

The EH valve has three key parameters:

Minimum Current – The current that passes through the coil when hydraulic fluid begins to flow. When the current is less than the minimum current, no oil will flow through the valve.

Valve.

Maximum Current – The current through the coil at which maximum flow of oil through the valve is achieved.

Deadband – The amount of change in the corresponding input before a flow command is sent to the output of the valve.
