Description and Advantages
Steering Control Units
SERIES 5
(291-XXXX-XXX, 292-XXXX-XXX, 293-XXXX-XXX, 294-XXXX-XXX)
The steering control unit (SCU) is fully fluid linked. This means there is no mechanical connection between the steering unit, the pump and the steering cylinders. The unit consists of a manually operated directional control servo valve and feedback meter element in a single body. It is used principally for fluid linked power steering systems but it can be used for some servo-type applications or any application where visual positioning is required. The close coupled, rotary action valve performs all necessary fluid directing functions with a small number of moving parts. The manually actuated valve is coupled with the mechanical drive to the meter gear. The control is lubricated and protected by the power fluid in the system and can operate in many environments.
Char-Lynn power steering control units offer the following advantages: Minimizes steering linkagereduces cost, provides flexibility in design. Provides complete isolation of load forces from the control stationprovides operator comfort. Provides continuous, unlimited control action with very low input torque. Provides a wide selection of control circuits and meter sizes. Can work with many kinds of power steering pumps or fluid supply.

Hydraulic Circuit Explanation Neutral Circuits: Open Center and Open Center Power Beyond
Open Center
Simplest, most economical system Uses a fixed displacement pump In neutral position pump and tank are connected Most suitable on smaller type vehicles
Open Center Power Beyond
The following special considerations should be addressed when applying power beyond steering: Auxiliary valves (connected to PB) must be open center type. Slight bump or kick may be felt in steering wheel when auxiliary functions are activated during steering operations. Pump flow not used for steering is available at power beyond (PB) outlet, except at steering stops where total pump flow goes over the system relief valve. Avoid auxiliary functions that require constant flow while steering. Flow is only directed to the tank port when steering is operated. Avoid systems where return flow from tank port is used for auxiliary functions. Inlet pressure to the steering unit will be the higher of steering system pressure or auxiliary valve pressure. Generally avoid systems where heavy use of auxiliary functions occur while steering.
Applications
L Gerotor
The power beyond steering control unit supplies steering and auxiliary valve functions. The power beyond unit is used on medium pressure, open center (fixed displacement pump) systems. When not steering, the power beyond unit directs all inlet flow to the auxiliary circuit. However once steering is initiated, part of the auxiliary flow is diverted to steering. Since steering has priority, all flow, if required, will be diverted to steering. The tank port of the steering unit has flow only when steering is operated. Thus, flow out of the auxiliary (PB) port and the tank port will fluctuate or stop depending on steering input.

Typical applications where neutral bleed is required are: Remote steering position from power source. Extended engine idle operation when vehicle is parked. High duty cycle operation sharing a common reservoir with the steering circuit.
Applications
Closed Center Steering Control Units are available with and without neutral bleed feature. Most applications may not require the bleed feature, however, the maximum temperature differential between components within the steering circuit must not exceed specification (50 F or 28 C). Order unit with the bleed feature if the temperature differential may exceed this limit. The neutral bleed feature allows a small flow of fluid to pass through the unit when in neutral to reduce the thermal differential.

Hydraulic Circuit Explanation Neutral Circuits: Load Sensing

Load Sensing Circuits
Char-Lynn load sensing power steering uses conventional or load sensing power supplies to achieve load sensing steering. The use of a load sensing steering unit and a priority valve in a normal power steering circuit offers the following advantages: Provides smooth pressure compensated steering because load variations in the steering circuit do not affect axle response or maximum steering rate. Provides true power beyond system capability by splitting the system into two independent circuits. Pressure transients are isolated in each circuit. Only the flow required by the steering maneuver goes to the steering circuit. Flow not required for steering is available for use in the auxiliary circuits. Provides reliable operation because the steering circuit always has flow and pressure priority. Char-Lynn load sensing steering control units and priority valves can be used with open center, closed center or load sensing systems. Use in an open center system with a fixed displacement pump or a closed center system with a pressure compensated pump, offers many of the features of a load sensing system. Excess flow is available for auxiliary circuits. Listed below are the components of a typical load sensing control circuit and a brief application description. PumpMay be fixed displacement, pressure compensated, or flow and pressure compensated design.

Priority ValveSized for design pressure drop at maximum pump output flow rate and priority flow requirements. The minimum control pressure must assure adequate steering flow rate and must be matched with the steering control unit. A dynamic signal priority valve must be used with a dynamic signal steering control unit. Steering Control Unit Designed for specific rated flows and control pressures. It must be matched with a control pressure in the priority valve to obtain maximum steering rates. Higher flow rates require higher control pressures. Neutral internal bleed assures component temperature equalization. LS LineA LS line is always needed to sense pressure downstream from the variable control orifice in the steering control unit. This is balanced by an internal passage to the opposite side of the priority control spool. The total system performance depends on careful consideration of the control pressure chosen and pressure drop in the CF line. Steering Relief Valve Must be factory set at least 10 bar [145 PSl] above the maximum steering cylinder pressure requirement. Most of the flow will be directed to the auxiliary circuit (EF) when the relief setting is exceeded. System Main Relief ValveA pressure relief valve for the auxiliary circuit and/or a main safety valve for the protection of the pump is recommended and sized for the maximum pump output flow rate. If a main relief valve is used, it must be set above the priority circuit steering relief valve pressure setting.

Hydraulic Circuit Explanation Work Circuits: Non-Load Reaction and Load Reaction
Non-Load Reaction
A non-load reaction steering unit blocks the cylinder ports in neutral, holding the axle position whenever the operator releases the steering wheel.
P Steering Control Unit Pressure and Flow Compensated Pump
Closed Center System Non-Load Reaction Circuit

Load Reaction
A load reaction steering unit couples the cylinder ports internally (in the neutral position) with the meter gear set. Axle forces are then allowed to return the steering wheel to its approximate original position. Comparable to automobile steering, gradually releasing the wheel mid turn will allow the steering wheel to spin back as the vehicle straightens.
The cylinder system used with load reaction units must have equal oil volume displaced in both directions. The cylinders should be a parallel pair (as shown) or one double rod end unit. Do not use with a single unequal area cylinder system.

Steering Units with Integral Valves
Integral valves are available for the Char-Lynn steering control unit. Included are: Inlet Relief Valve, Cylinder Port Shock Valves, LS-Relief Valve, and Anti-Cavitation Valves for cylinder ports. In addition, a Manual Steering Check Valve for limited manual steering is included. The integral valves eliminate the need for a separate valve block, and provides versatility to meet any steering circuit standard.
Valve Description:
1 Anti-cavitation check valve for cylinder ports (R & L) protects steering circuit against vacuum (cavitation) conditions. 2 Cylinder Port Relief Valves(R & L) protects hoses against pressure surge created by ground forces on the steered axle. 3 Manual Steering Check Valveconverts unit to a hand operated pump for limited manual steering. Included in all units except Series 20, 25, and 40.** 4 Inlet Relief Valvelimits maximum pressure drop across the steering unit protecting the steering circuit. 5 Inlet Check Valve prevents oil from returning through the steering unit when pressure on the cylinder side is greater than pressure on the inlet side to prevent steering wheel kick. 6 LS-Relief ValveLimits maximum pressure in the steering circuit (LS units only)
**Steering units with displacements larger than 185 cm 3/r [11.3 in3/r] may require a separate power source for limited operation.

Special Features and Application Manual Steering
Description
Use of Graph
The steering control unit can provide steering flow when the pump or engine fails. It will pump oil through the meter (gerotor) as the operator applies input or torque to the steering wheel which provides limited manual steering. This feature is available in all steering models except for Series 25 and 40.

Special Features and Application 2-Speed
Description
Eatons 2-Speed technology offers two operatorselectable metered modes at any time, with the touch of a button or the flip of a switch, and provides the operator flexibility to significantly improve the overall steering experience. 2-Speed technology is available on the Series 10 Steering Control Unit (SCU).
Dual Steering Modes
Typically, the gerotor between the SCU housing and the shift valve is the smaller gerotor (first gerotor). The shift valve is activated by the operator, which allows or prevents flow to the second gerotor. A separate solenoid valve provides the pressure pilot signal to shift the aforementioned valve. The OEM will define and provide the operator switch to activate the solenoid valve.
Metered Steering Mode 1 The steering unit operates the same as a traditional hydrostatic steering control unit. Steering (flow) is a function of steering wheel rotations (rpm). Metered (gerotor) steering provides precise, responsive, and smooth steering. All the flow is metered by the first gerotor, resulting in a greater number of turns lock-to-lock. In case of pressure loss, the shift valve automatically prevents flow to the second gerotor and emergency steering is available via the first gerotor.
Metered Steering Mode 2 The steering unit operates the same as a traditional hydrostatic steering control unit, except the flow is metered for a combined displacement of two gerotors. As with Mode 1, steering (flow) is a function of steering wheel rotations. As the total displacement per rotation is the sum of the two gerotor displacements, the number of turns lock-to-lock may be significantly decreased. Operator effort is greatly reduced during the work cycle. The number of turns lock-to-lock could go down to 0.5, where the ratio of the two gerotor displacements could vary from 1:1 to as high as 5:1, providing great flexibility in the design.
Benefits
Manual steering capability in unpowered mode (emergency steering) Steering flow is always proportional to steering speed Allows for excellent roadability and operator selectable quick-steer for work cycles

Special Features and Application Dual Displacement
Description
The dual displacement steering control unit allows manufacturers of off road vehicles to retain manual steering capabilities while reducing the number of components in their system. By using two displacements in one unit we offer a better solution to manually steer a vehicle in an unpowered mode without the need of a back-up power system resulting in a more economical machine. The dual displacement steering unit uses two gerotors and a pressure controlled logic valve. The logic valve switches between two displacements, one displacement for manual steering and the total of both displacements for powered operation. The logic valve is spring returned to the smaller manual displacement when inlet pressure falls below 8 bar [120 psi]. Above 8 bar [120 psi] the logic valve connects both gerotors to provide full powered displacement.
Manual steering capabilities in unpowered mode
Eliminates the need of a back-up emergency system. Engages the small displacement in an unpowered mode and allows manual steering. Allows vehicles to meet ISO/TUV road regulations without the need of the currently used emergency system.
Performance in powered mode
Both gerotors are engaged to steer the vehicle. Same performance as other Char-Lynn steering units.

Eaton Patented Technologies Q-Amp (Flow Amplification) for Load Sensing Circuits
Description
Q-Amp steering units have built in variable orifices that provide flow directly to the cylinder without going through the gerotor section. The orifices do not open until after the gerotor begins to rotate and then gradually open until the desired flow is achieved which is
proportional to the flow going through the gerotor. A typical Q-Amp unit has a ratio of 1.6 : 1 which means the flow of the cylinder is 1.6 times the flow going through the gerotor when turning the steering wheel at medium to fast speeds. (See model code for available ratios.)

Manual Steering Steering a vehicle with loss of engine power may not be possible with a large displacement steering control unit (SCU). Q-Amp with manual feature has the smaller displacement required for manual steering and has the additional flow requirement of the larger displacement SCU for power steering. Single Cylinder (Unequal area)
16
On vehicles with one single unequal area cylinder the steering wheel turns lock to lock are more in one direction than the other. When extending the rod one would get more turns than when retracting it. A different Q-Amp ratio while turning in one direction versus the other can be used to give an equal number of turns lock to lock in each direction.

Eaton Patented Technologies Q-Amp (Flow Amplification) for Load Sensing Circuits
Applications
Articulated vehicles such as wheel loaders, log skidders, scrapers, trucks, and similar vehicles can benefit from this feature.
While roading, a slow movement of the steering wheel (input speed), will not overcorrect steering. Increasing input speed will produce the additional steering flow required to quickly change the vehicles direction.
For example, operating log skidders in the woods requires very quick steering. This same log skidder on the road would be extremely difficult to steer a straight normal course. The variable ratio feature provides good steering in both conditions.
Combines, row crop tractors, and large articulated agricultural tractors also can benefit from this feature when traveling down a field. It will be easier to follow rows or furrows, and still be able to make fast turns at the end of the rows.

Eaton Patented Technologies Wide Angle
Description
Benefits
Steering units with wide angle features have been developed to significantly reduce or eliminate the jerky motion of vehicles with articulated steering systems. This has been accomplished by increasing the maximum deflection of the spool relative to the sleeve. Increasing the deflection reduces the gain. This in turn reduces acceleration and jerk levels and provides overall smoother vehicle performance. The steering still responds fast enough so the operator does not notice the reduced gain.
Minimizes jerking motion on medium and large articulated vehicles. Jerk reducing valves and accumulators can be eliminated on most vehicles. Avaliable on Series 10, Series 20 (standard), and Series 25. Eliminates need for cushion valves

Eaton Patented Technologies Cylinder Damping
Description
Features
Flow Amplification without Cylinder Damping
Cylinder damping can help smooth the steering action of large articulated vehicles such as loaders, scrapers, and skidders. These vehicles have overhanging weight with high inertial loads. This energy is dissipated by the cylinder damping orifices which bleed a small amount of flow from the cylinder port to tank. Cylinder Damping has 3 different levels of application. The number of levels equal to the number of Cylinder Damping (CD) orifices. This technology is available on Series 10, Series 20, Series 25, and Series 40. Not all SCUs come with all 3 levels.
Three levels engineered to fit your application.

Benefits
Reduces jerking motion on medium and large articulated vehicles. Available on the following steering control units (Series 10, 20, 25, 40). Damps or stabilizes unstable systems.

Series 10 VersaSteer Series 20 VersaSteer
Metered Steering The steering unit operates the same as a traditional hydrostatic steering control unit. Steering (flow) is a function of steering wheel rotations (rpm). Metered (gerotor) steering provides precise, responsive, and smooth steering. Quick Steering Gerotorless (quick) steering provides a much different effect, enabling the operator to put the vehicle in full lock while only turning the steering wheel a few degrees. This is achieved by hydraulically blocking the flow of oil to the gerotor with a shift valve. Full steering flow can be obtained by deflecting the steering wheel 45 for a Series 10 and 50 for a Series 20. Operator effort is greatly reduced during the work cycle.

Option 2:
Round Housing (Mount) Unit with End Ports In addition to the installation flexibility provided by the two options above, this new family of products has bestin-class steering feel and provides crisp centering. These units also have better efficiency (lower pressure drop) than competitive units. Power Beyond Models Optional power beyond steering control units supply steering and flow to auxiliary valve functions. The power beyond unit is used in open center (fixed displacement pump) systems in the medium pressure range. When not steering, the power beyond unit directs all inlet flow to the excess flow port (power beyond) for use in the auxiliary circuit. Once steering is initiated, and since steering has priority, inlet flow will be diverted to the steering circuit as required. Flow out the excess flow port (power beyond) and tank port will vary or stop depending upon the steering requirement. The tank port of the steering unit has flow only when steering is operating.

The new Series 10 SCU has an unprecedented, continuous pressure rating of 275 bar (4000 psi), making it ideal for heavy-duty equipment, such as construction and agricultural machinery. Its high-pressure rating reduces overall equipment costs, since smaller cylinder sizes can be assigned into the system. The new Series 10 incorporates proven Eaton technologies.

Steering Control Units Series 20 Product Description
The Series 20 steering control unit continues Eatons tradition of innovative design and high quality that began with the first fluid linked power steering system. You can count on this steering unit to provide the same smooth, predictable steering as the Char-Lynn steering units that provide dependable, trouble-free steering on applications around the world. Provides much smoother steering function by minimizing jerky motion on articulated vehicles. Jerk-reducing valves and accumulators can be eliminated on most vehicles, providing customer savings through fewer components required and reduced system cost. Symmetrical valving provides passageways and valving that are equally placed, and pressure areas that are staged for minimum internal leakage. This results in balance, precise servo response and uniform left or right steering action. Eatons high capacity gerotor provides ample fluid displacement from an even more compact unit than was previously offered.
A thicker sleeve design provides stability, especially during pressure and thermal transient conditions. The seal and centering spring designs provide positive, low-effort steering feel to ensure excellent vehicle control, an important feature for the vehicles for which these steering control units were designed.

Torque Generator Product Description
Char-Lynn torque generators have been completely redesigned to meet the needs of the changing marketplace. These torque generators provide power assist for steering, eliminating the large hand wheels on gate valves, and provide powerful rotary motion with effortless manual rotary input on numerous other applications.
Features
Load Sensing
Char-Lynn load sensing torque generators use conventional or load sensing power supplies to achieve load sensing steering. The use of a load sensing torque generator and a priority valve in a normal power steering circuit offers the following advantages: Provides smooth pressure compensated steering because load variations in the steering circuit do not affect axle response or maximum steering rate. beyond system capability by splitting the system into two independent circuits. Only the flow required by the steering maneuver goes to the steering circuit. Flow not required for steering is available for use in the auxiliary circuits. because the steering circuit always has flow and pressure priority. Char-Lynn load sensing torque generators and priority valves can be used with open center, closed center or load sensing systems. Used either in an open center system with a fixed displacement pump or a closed center system with a pressure compensated pump, these torque generators offer many of the features of a load sensing system. Excess flow is available for auxiliary circuits.
Todays market includes power steering on electric lift trucks. Char-Lynn torque generators have been designed with features that greatly improve the operators comfort as well as the vehicles performance. The increase in port surface area allows for the additional port requirement for units with the following features:

This version has three ports: Inlet (IN), Tank (OUT), and Excess Flow (EF). In the power beyond configuration, flow not used for priority steering exits the EF port and is available for the downstream reach function. Flow used for steering will exit the (OUT) port to tank, and cannot be used for auxiliary functions.

Torque Generator Product Description Continued
Open Center with Case Drain
Anti-Friction Needle Bearings
Load Sensing
This high pressure open center torque generator allows the exit flow from the Torque Generator to operate another function (for example reach/tilt function of a fork lift vehicle). An external case drain is needed to protect seals and to allow for adequate recentering of spool and sleeve. The flow out the case drain is internal leakage only. This is a series circuit with some special characteristics that should be noted: A relief valve is required in the down stream circuit as well as a relief valve protecting the torque generator. The pressures in this circuit are additive. If it takes 41 bar [600 PSI] for steering and 55 bar [800 PSI] for the reach circuit, the pump will see 96 bar [1400 PSI]. The relief valve for steering must always be set higher than the relief valve on the downstream function (reach). The margin between the two must be enough to provide adequate steering in the worst case (fork lift stationary and unloaded).
Torque generators are available with anti-friction needle bearings at the power end to allow for direct mount sprockets or pinions when compactness of application does not allow for outboard bearings.
Gerotor or Geroler Element
Direct Mechanical Link In LS
This is a fluid displacement element, consisting of an outer ring gear and an internal star. Manual low torque input actuates the spool of the spring centered spool and sleeve valve, allowing high pressure oil to turn the internal star. This star is coupled with a splined drive to the output shaft and also the sleeve of the spool and sleeve valve. High pressure oil turning the star in this gerotor or Geroler element is generating high output torque. The Geroler elements have not been offered on torque generators in the past. These Gerolers have rolls incorporated into the outer ring, and the rolls provide rolling contact with the star point, minimizing friction and improving efficiency.

Steering System Components Antijerk Valves
Description
Antijerk Valves provide smoother steering on articulated vehicles, such as Wheel Loaders. This is achieved by a pressure sequence valve mounted on a block. Patent pending. (For more information see Vickers Screw-in Cartridge Valves Cat. V-VLOV-MC001-E2.)
Features
occurs a small amount of damping flow is allowed across the turn ports. Unlike accumulators this valve will not have a negative affect on roading performance, and it is more cost effective than cushion valves.
Applications
Steering Control Unit Electric Pump M LS L Emergency Steer Pump Supply LS2 L2 Anti Jerk Valve CF1 LS1 L1 CF Priority Valve LS P PFC Pump Steer Cylinders R1 R R2 Anti Jerk Manifold
Dramatically reduces jerk when steering is stopped quickly and while making aggressive changes in direction. The valve works by monitoring the margin pressure acting on the steering valve. Margin spikes when steering wheel speed is reduced aggressively. When this
CF1 is supply from the pump or priority valve, CF2 should connect to the steering valve UPSTREAM of any check valves, LS1 & LS2 are the steering valve load-sense connection, R&L are pass through ports for the turn lines. The setting of the valve needs to be higher than the normal difference in pressures between CF and LS, i.e. if CF-LS is 150PSI then a good setting to start with is 200PSI.

Steering System Components EH Proportional Loadsensing Steer Valves
Description
Features / Applications
EH proportional steer valves are commonly used for GPS steering, joystick steering, and autoguidance. This is achieved by a manifold containing a shuttle valve, a counterbalance valve, and a KDG proportional control valve.
features counterbalance valves on the turn ports to minimize leakage and improve stability. The counter balance valves make it particularly suitable for articulated machines and machines with hydraulic Tie Rods - such as sprayers. The valve also features a load sense drain and shuttle checks to resolve the load signal with the steering Orbitrol, making it suitable for use in Dynamic or Static signal systems.

Steering System Components Brake Valve
Eaton Hydraulics loadsensing brake valve makes power brakes an economical and efficient feature on lift trucks. While power brakes in lift trucks can aid productivity, incorporating them into lift trucks has traditionally been expensive. The need for additional flow meant extra plumbing, plus the addition of a dedicated pump or a high pressure accumulator for the brake circuit. The increased system size also meant extra demand on the engine, resulting in reduced fuel economy. The Eaton brake valve provides a better solution. Used in conjunction with load-sense steering and a priority valve, it can work with an existing system. A dedicated flow source is not required. It also ensures that brakes and steering have priority over the hoist circuit. Eatons new brake valve has a shuttle in the sensing port which allows the priority valve to determine whether brakes or steering require higher pressure. The priority valve then shifts to provide adequate flow and pressure for the function with the greatest needs. An integral pressurecompensated flow limiter provides low flow for brake modulation. This feature of the brake valve allows simultaneous braking and steering without steering interruption or pedal kick.
The design of the circuit also increases efficiency. The control flow line of the circuit is connected in parallel to both the brake valve and the steering unit. Thus, brake and steering pressures are not additive during simultaneous operation. The existing steering pressure is usually enough to provide full power braking. Another feature of the Eaton brake valve is that it accommodates dead engine braking. The valve contains a large internally cored area that acts as a reservoir, providing oil for brake actuation in the manual mode. The valve design allows the volume and pressure required for manual braking to be generated without excessive pedal force. Thus, the load-sensing brake valve offers the benefits of powered brakes and manual brakes in a single package, eliminating the need for an accumulator.

If the steered axle is power driven, double this value to approximate the additional dynamic loads. r = Effective radius arm about the kingpin axis at which the cylinder force is applied. The effective radius is the minimum distance from kingpin to the axis of the cylinder not the actual length of the arm.

Before proceeding further, a decision must be made as to the number of steering wheel revolutions desired for the application to steer the axle from full one side to the other. Depending on vehicle usage, this will vary, normally 2 1/2 to 5 1/2 with 4 being a good typical value Displ. = V N V = Volume full stroke N = number of steering wheel revolutions lock to lock Once this calculation is complete, select the closest standard steering unit displacement from the catalog information. Now the number of steering wheel revolutions should be recalculated. V N = displ. displ. = Steering unit displacement per revolution. Note: for different cylinder applications, the cylinder volume will be different for right and left turns and the value N will vary accordingly.
Pump sizing is important to assure adequate power for steering under all operating conditions. The required pump flow can be calculated by the following equation. QP = Rmax. x displ. QP (L/min): Required pump flow. Rmax = Max. steering wheel input of steering control unit (SCU). displ. = Displacement of steering control unit per revolution. Before proceeding to evaluation required pump flow the maximum required steering wheel speed must be determined. Typically 120 revolutions per minute (RPM) is used for Rmax. It is important at engine low idle condition that the maximum steering wheel speed should be more than 60 rpm. For engine normal idle condition, maximum steering wheel speed should be more than 100 rpm if possible. When using open center SCU connected with pump directly, maximum pump flow should be less than 1.4 times of SCU rated flow. Higher flow into SCU increases pressure-loss of the steering system. If higher flow is unavoidable, install a flow divider valve into the system or use a load sensing system.

Sizing and Application Articulated Type Steering
Eatons Hydraulic Division has developed a computer program to assist articulated vehicle designers with a steering system analysis. This analysis can provide basic system sizing, pressure requirements or a complete system analysis including dynamic characteristics.
This analysis is intended to be used as a guide only and is not to be used solely as the final determination of system design. Other factors and variables will have to be considered.
To receive output from this program, provide the required information by using the form on the following page.
