This compact and inexpensive power amplifier has been developed to control directional valves with two magnets. This amplifier in connector housing is mounted directly on the valves.

The device is designed for a typical input signal of 0 … 10 V (optionally 4 … 20 mA).

The output current is regulated and therefore independent of the supply voltage and the solenoid resistance.

The parameters can be set via the PC interface and the ULA-310 programming adapter or optionally via a USB type Mini 2.0 socket integrated in the device.

The power output stage of this module can be adapted to proportional valves from different manufacturers.

The output current is regulated and therefore independent of the power supply and the solenoid resistance. The output stage is monitored for cable breaks, is short-circuit proof and switches the power output stage off in the event of a fault.

RAMP, MIN and MAX, the DITHER (frequency and amplitude) and the PWM frequency can be programmed. In addition, the valve characteristic curve can be linearized using 10 corner points. For example, in pressure valves a linear behavior between input signal and output pressure can be achieved.

This module is used to control one directional control valve with two solenoids or up to two valves with one solenoid. The functionality corresponds to the standard PAM-199-P, with the difference that the analog interfaces are omitted and the module is controlled directly via IO-Link.

The advantage of this coupling lies in the simpler integration into the machine control system, better diagnostics options, cabling, automatic parameterisation in the event of device replacement and significantly lower overall costs (analog and digital IOs can be omitted on the control system side).

In addition to the power amplifier function, two optional analog inputs are available whose signals are transmitted to the PLC via IO-Link.

This power amplifier has been developed to control proportional valves with one solenoid. This compact solution is mounted in an inexpensive IP 65 housing.

The power plug is designed for digital communication via an IO-LINK interface. The setpoints, the parameterization and the diagnostics are completely realized via this simple interface. Their advantage is the simple and inexpensive cabling and the use of universal tools for parameterization. Via the free parameterization of the power output stage, this module can be adapted to proportional valves from different manufacturers. The output current is closed loop controlled and thus independent of the supply voltage and the solenoid resistance.

Together with the IOA-312 adapter, the module can also be used without a PLC.

This module is used for the control of one directional valve with two solenoids or one/two independent pressure or throttle valves with one solenoid each. Various adjustable parameters allow for an optimized adaptation to the respective valve. The integrated power amplifier with a short cycle time of 0,125 ms for the current loop is an inexpensive and space-saving solution.
