This document provides technical documentation for the PEXT3 integrated power amplifier module used in ME5 series modules. The PEXT3 module contains two power stages rated at 1A, 1.6A, or 2.6A for controlling proportional valves without position feedback using PWM signals. It integrates into control modules simply with a separate 10-30VDC power supply for safety. The document describes ordering codes, inputs/outputs, specifications, wiring, parameters and default settings.

Ordering code
The integrated power amplifiers are ordered by the extension P (standard is A for +/- 10 V output)
Example:
POS-123P
POS-123PL

(instead of POS-123A)
(L for reduced output current; 50 % of the standard current)

General description
This power stage was developed to control proportional valves without spool position feedback. The current is continuously controlled by the microcontroller of the main module with a PWM signal. A cycle time
of 0,167 ms is supplying a good dynamic.
Internal parameters are used for optimal static and dynamic adjustments. The separate power input of the
power stage supplies expanded possibilities for safety relevant applications. Diagnostics of the control
function by deenergized power stages.
Integration in a closed module concept guarantees a simple and fast installation.
Control modules with optional power stage:
DSG 111, POS 121, POS 122, POS-123, POS-127, POS-128, MDR 133, CSC 151 and CSC 152
Directional- , throttle- pressure- and flow control valves of the manufactures: REXROTH, BOSCH,
EATON, PARKER, FLUID TEAM, ATOS ...

Characteristics

Two power stages of 1 A, 1,6 A or 2,6 A

Adjustable PWM-frequency , dither frequency and dither amplitude

High current resolution

For one directional valve, two throttle valves or


pressure valves

Separate power input for safety relevant applications

Integrated in basic modules, no extra wiring is


necessary

Power supply
This module is designed for 10 30 VDC (typical 24 V) of a power supply. This power supply must correspond to the actual EMC standards.
All inductivities at the same power supply (relays, valves ) must be provided with an over voltage protection (varistors, free-wheel diodes ).
It is recommended to use a regulated power supply (linear or switching mode) for the supply of the module and the sensors. These power supplies have a clearly lower internal resistance in comparison with
non regulated power supplies and therefore a better spurious rejection.

External protection:

10 30 VDC, incl. ripple


100 mA
5 A medium lag

ATTENTION: Without an external fuse and in case of a continual short-circuit the module
can be destroyed in spite of all internal protections.

Digital PWM output


The digital PWM outputs are closed loop current controlled. Measurements should be made only in current mode.
All outputs are protected with suppressor diodes and RC-filters against transient overshoots.
Output current: depending on the current range, 1 A, 1,6 A or 2,6 A

ATTENTION: Plugs with free wheel diodes or LEDs should not be used with closed loop
current controlled power stages. The current loop is disturbed and the power stage can be
damaged.

ATTENTION: The dither amplitude must be optimized after
that.

The standard parameterization is used at many proportional valves of different manufactures. Without
special requirements on the application, this parameterization is almost sufficient.
