The EDC-1 connector is a digital amplifier controlling open loop


proportional valves. The unit supplies a variable current
proportionally to the reference signal and independently of
temperature variations or load impedance, with a resolution of 1%
on 2600 mA (the full scale value).
The PWM stage on the solenoid power supply makes it possible to
reduce the valve hysteresis thus optimising control precision. The
connector is customizable with different maximum current sizes and
switching frequencies (PWM), optimized according to the valve to
be controlled.
Setting is possible by buttons and display inside the case, or with a
notebook by RS232 with the software EDC-PC, (see par. 6.2)

Switching frequency (PWM):


1 = 100 Hz
2 = 200 Hz
3 = 300 Hz
4 = 400 Hz
5 = 500 Hz

2.3 - Reference signal


The connector accepts voltage reference signals with 0 10V and
0 5V, in 4 20 mA current, from an external generator (PLC, CNC)
or external potentiometer.
See paragraph 7 for electric connections referring to the different
connector versions.

2 - FUNCTIONALSPECIFICATIONS
Electric power supply
The connector requires a power supply of 10 30 V DC (terminals
1 and 2).

3 - SIGNALS

NOTE: The value of the power supply voltage on the connector


must be higher than the rated working voltage of the solenoid
to be controlled.

3.1 - POWER ON (Power supply)

The power supply voltage must be rectified and filtered, with


maximum admissible ripple within the above voltage range.

4 - ADJUSTMENTS

The power required by the connector depends on the power supply


voltage and on the maximum value of the supplied current (it is
determined by the card version). In general a conservative value of
the required power can be considered as the product of V x I.
Example: a connector with a maximum current = 800 mA and a
power supply voltage of 24 V DC requires a power of about 20W. In
case of a card with a maximum current =1600 mA and a power
supply voltage of 24 V DC the used power is equal to 38.5 W.
2.2 - Electrical protection
The connector is protected against overvoltage and polarity
inversion.
On the output a protection against any short circuit is foreseen.

There are two way adjustments: variables view and parameters


editing. The first one enables the real time monitoring of the control
values, for both required and read current, on both channels. The
second modality enables the operating parameters view and
editing.
4.1 - Variablesview
The card is switched on at the variables view modality, and it shows
the first variable value, that is the U1 parameter (reference signal).
Pushing button (1) the current to solenoid is displayed. By means of
(1) key, the different variables can be selected. Each time a variable
is selected, its short name appears for approximately one second.
By briefly pressing the keys, the current variable name appears for
approximately one second.

The variables that can be selected are:


U1:

Reference signal:
0 + 10V
0 + 5V
4 20mA (displayed as 2 10)

C1:

current required according to the applied


reference signal, expressed in ampere, ranging
between 0 and 2.6 A

All the mentioned parameters can be viewed on the two digits


display, located on the connector front panel.
The selected value has to be read as follows (example for EDC15*/10E* card):

d1: RampDn decreasing ramp time, expressed in seconds.


It sets the current decreasing time, for a variation from 100% to
0 of the input reference. It is used to slow down the valve
response time in the case of a sudden variation of the
reference signal.
Default value = 00 sec.
Range = 00 50 sec.
Fr: PWM frequency, in Hertz.
It sets the PWM frequency, which is the pulsating frequency of
the control current. The PWM decrease improves the valve
accuracy, decreasing the regulation stability. The PWM
increase improves the regulation stability, causing a higher
hysteresis.
Default value = PWM (according to version card)
Range = 50 500Hz

4.2 - PARAMETERS EDITING


To access the parameter editing, press the key (2) for at least 3
seconds.
The first parameter displayed is G1. To modify it, press the key (1) for
two seconds, until the display starts blinking. Use the key (2) to
increase the value and the key (1) to decrease it. To save the new
value, press both the keys. The display stops blinking.
Pressing the key (2) again is possible to scroll all the parameters. To
modify some parameters, repeat the steps above-mentioned for the
G1 parameter.

u1: RampUp increasing ramp time, expressed in seconds.
It sets the current increasing time, for a variation from 0 to

6 - START UP, CONTROL SETTINGS AND SIGNAL


MEASUREMENT

The connector type electronic unit is suitable for direct assembly on


the solenoid of the relative proportional valve. The 4-core
connection cable (0,5 mm2 individual wire section) is supplied prewired and in a standard length of 2.5 m (DIN 47100 standard).

6.1 - Set up
Settings can be changed by either acting on the (1) and (2) keys
located on the card front panel, or using the EDC-PC hardware and
software kit.

NOTE 1
To observe EMC requirements its important that the control unit
electrical connection is in compliance with the wiring diagram of
chapter 7. As a general rule, the valve and the electronic unit
connection wires must be kept as far as possible from interference
sources (e.g. power wires, electrical motors, inverters and electrical
switches).

6.2 - EDC-PC Software


The relevant hardware and software kit (to be ordered separately)
allows to read the values and to set the connector easily.
The software communicates, through a flat cable, to the relevant
connector placed in the EDC-1 panel, behind the protecting gate.
The EDC-PC software compatibility is guaranteed only on Windows
2000 and Windows XP operating systems.

In environments where there are critical electromagnetic


interferences, a complete protection of the connection wires
can be requested.
