1.3 About proportional electrohydraulics
1.3.1 Electrohydraulics : hydraulics plus electronics
Atos is a leading manufacturer of electrohydraulic components & systems: the advanced technology that
integrates hydraulics and electronics to improve performances and flexibility of the modern machinery.
Electrohydraulic proportional controls modulate hydraulic parameters according to the electronic reference
signals; they are the ideal interface between hydraulic and electronic systems to perform fast, smooth and
accurate motions required by todays modern machines and plants.
Operating principle
The core of electrohydraulic controls is the proportional valve that modulates pressure or flow according to
the electronic input signal (standard: external analog signal 10 VDC).
The force of the solenoid is proportional to the reference signal, thus properly moving the spool against areturn spring to modulate hydraulic parameters
When electrical failure occurs, the spring
restores the neutral position according to the
valve configuration.
Proportional valves are available with
different neutral position to achieve the
required fail-safe configuration.
The wide range of Atos proportional valves is
available with or without integral feedback
transducer.
The sketch at side shows a proportional
directional valve with spool feedback
transducer.
1.3.2 Control loops
Open loop con trols
Control is provided through the modulation ofcurrent supplied to valve solenoid without the
effective result of the regulating loop being
verified.
R reference inputD digital driverV proportional valveM valves main stageT valves transducerL main stage transducerO actuator
Closed loop controls
Feedback transducers continuously verify the
effective result of regulation thus the closed
loop control compensates environmental
disturbances.

1.3.3 Digital proportional controls
Atos offers today one of the most advanced lines of proportional valves which allow performances close to
servovalves still maintaining the typical benefits of proportional electrohydraulics: less sensitivity, low
filtration requirements, intrinsic stability, easier servicing and lower cost.
The wide range of Atos proportional electrohydraulics is available in different executions to match the
specific application requirements and to allow simple upgrade of machine performances:
ZO-A
Open loop proportional valves to control direction/flow, pressure or flow with
pressure compensation; separate electronic drivers are required.
ZO-AES
As ZO-A execution plus digital integral electronic driver, factory preset to
ensure fine functionality, valve-to-valve interchangeability and easier set-up.
ZO-TES; ZO-LES
Closed loop proportional valves to control direction/flow or flow with pressure
compensation.
Digital integral electronic driver (factory preset) and integral spool position
transducers (1 for ZO-TES, 2 for ZO-LES) assure valve-to-valve
interchangeability, easier set-up and high response dynamics.
SP/SF/SL options add pressure/force control with alternated control selection
logic.
ZO-TERS; ZO-AERS
Closed loop proportional valves to control maximum relieved or reduced
pressure.
Digital integral electronic driver (factory preset) and integral pressure
transducer (ZO-TERS) assure valve-to-valve interchangeability, easier set-up
and high response dynamics; valves with remote pressure transducer (ZO-
AERS) allow more precise regulation and application flexibility.
ZO-PES
Variable displacement pumps with digital integral electronic driver, control inclosed loop flow and pressure; a dedicated algorithm selects which control
(flow/pressure) is active time by time.
Digital integral electronic driver (factory preset) and integral pump
displacement/pressure transducers assure pump-to-pump interchangeability,
easier set-up and high response dynamics.
ZA-**
Ex-proof executions equipped with specific solenoids certified to ATEX
94/9/CE and IECEX, available with and without integral ex-proof driver andtransducer.

1.3.4 Digital electronic drivers
Atos electronics include analog or digital drivers both in separate or integral-to-valve format.
They supply proportional valve solenoid with current to align the valve regulation and the reference signal
thus obtaining an ideal interface between hydraulic and electronic systems of modern machine and plants.
Digital electronics add variable plus to
proportional electrohydraulics:
better performances: hysteresis, response
time, linearity
software setting of hydraulic parameters:
scale, bias, ramp, non-linearity
diagnostics and computer assisted
maintenance
high immunity to electromagnetic noise
easy interfacing to fieldbus systems
1.3.5 Fieldbus systems
Atos digital electronics allow to integrate hydraulic components into machines equipped with the digital
communication system commonly known as fieldbus( i.e. CANopen, PROFIBUS DP, etc).
Up to now the connection and the control of hydraulic valves were mainly done by point-to-point analog
connections with expensive wiring and starting-up costs.
Thanks to the fieldbus systems it is possible to interface reference, monitor and diagnostic signals with
proportional valves by means of cheap 2-wire cables.
Atos digital electronics is available as standard with Serial communication interface to a notebook or
desktop PC (driver with PS execution):
option BC allows integration into CANopen fieldbus systems
option BP allows integration into PROFIBUS DP fieldbus systems

4 Valve Installation
E-MAN-RI-TERS/E-14 21Driver Operating Manual
4 Valve Installation
4.1 General prescriptions
The following instructions are general indications and procedures for the correct installation andcommissioning of proportional valves in modern electrohydraulic systems.
Hydraulic fluid
The hydraulic fluid is used to transmit power and to provide components lubrication in hydraulic systems.
To extend system reliability select high quality fluid with high viscosity index, with antifoaming and
antioxidant additives according to the international standards: DIN 51524 and 51535
Oil viscosity rating depends on the installed pumps/motors characteristics and on the working temperature.
Use lower viscosities with low system pressure to limit pressure drops and higher viscosities for high
system pressure to limit internal leakage:
High viscosities can cause air-emulsion in the oil and therefore cavitation and noise problems in
continuous operation; start-up problems may also at ambient temperature with pumps that require
viscosities higher than 290 365 cSt.
Low viscosities decreased system efficiency and affect the dynamic lubrication.
HLP mineral oil according to DIN 51524 - part 2 are recommended (viscosity range: 15 100 mm2/sec at
40C).
Oil must be periodically controlled and normally changed every 2000 hours (see Circuit cleaning, filling and
flushing)
Fluid temperature cond itioning
A high-performance system must be properly conditioned to maintain the fluid temperature within specific
range (generically between 40 and 50C) thus obtaining a constant fluid viscosity during the operation.
The machine working cycle should start once the recommended temperature has been reached.
Fluid temperatures higher that 60C, require components with Viton seals (option /PE).
Fluid temperature must not exceed 80C.
Fluid filtration
An efficient fluid filtration prevents breakdowns of the system by protecting the components from solid
particle contamination that may affect hydraulic fluid. Cleanliness class must be equal or better than ISO
18/15, NAS 1632 class 9, by fitting in line filters of 10m and 10=75.In line pressure filters must be mounted, if possible, immediately before the proportional valve and should
be of high pressure type; clogging electrical indicator without by-pass valve are recommended.
Additional warnings have to be considered: make sure that the filters are properly sized to ensure
efficiency; one of the main sources of contamination is air exchange into the tank: proper breather filters on
the power unit tank have to be always provided; filter the fluid when filling the power unit tank (new fluids
are always contaminated) through filtration Group GL-15 or similar (see technical table S150 on
www.scoda.it).
During system working operation the frequent cleaning or replacing of filters cartridges are required.
Circuit cleaning, filling and flushingPower unit tank has to be accurately cleaned before filling it by removing all the contaminants and any
extraneous object; piping has to be cold bended and pickled.

4 Valve Installation
22 E-MAN-RI-TERS/E-14Driver Operating Manual
Once assembled, an accurate washing of the whole circuit (flushing) has to be performed to eliminate the
contaminants:
replace proportional valves with appropriate by-pass plates or with on-off valves
by-pass the actuator user ports by means flexible pipes
shutoff the accumulators from the other parts of the circuit
replace filters cartridge after flushing procedures
Hydraulic connections
The flexible hoses on pressure line must be shielded and secured by using proper restrain devices to
prevent damages of machine, system and injuries to the operator.
The proportional valve must be installed as close as possible to the actuator to ensure the maximum
stiffness of the circuit and the best dynamic performances.
Hydraulic return and drains lines
Return lines must be connected to the tank with low counterpressures in order to not affect the components
regulation: return lines from proportional valve to tank must be properly sized to limit counterpressures tomax 5 bar.
High flow regulation may require drain connections to realize separate piping to the tank and to maintain
proper components functionality: external drain connection port is available as standard on servocylinders
rod side, piloted directional valves and pressure reducing valves (use option /Y valves when drain port is
not available as standard).
Pilot ing pressures
Standard configuration of piloted valves is with piloting line internally connected to line pressure.
use option /E valve with external pilot connection when line pressure is less than 30 bar
For directional control valve or throttle cartridge: use option /G valve with integral pressure reducing valve when line pressure is greater than 100 bar
Air bleeds
The air in the hydraulic circuits affects the hydraulic stiffness and it causes malfunctioning: air bleeds are
provided for both proportional valves and servocylinders (cylinder rod side); in addition proper air bleed
valves should be also installed in the hydraulic system points where the air could remains trapped.
Additional warn ings at fir st start -up or af ter maintenance of the system
Unscrew all the air bleeds to allow the complete removal of air
Untight piping connections
Use a check valve on the main return line to tank maintain to avoid the self emptying of the pipes
following a long service stop
4.2 Mounting
Once removed valve packaging take care to protect valve port, connectors and cables
Do not pull valve integral transducer cables
Removed valve ports plastic protection before mounting the valve into the system
Do not touch any electric components when handling the valve
Tighten valves to the manifold without exceeding the recommended max torque (see tab.T242-1)

5 Driver Electrical connections
5.1 General prescript ions
Switch-off power supply before any wirings operation
During the system start-up, check the immunity of the reference signals from interferences and electrical
noise
Use recommended cable size: at least 1 mm2
for power supply and 0.14 mm2for other signals
It is recommended to use current signals options for distance longer than 20m (/I option for reference/
and monitor signals, and /C option for remote transducer signal)
Cable shielding and earthing
Use Shielded wirings to avoid electromagnetic noise: it is an essential part of the EMC protection from thenoises that could otherwise bring disturbance through the signal and power supply connections.
To avoid any interference, the driver cables must be separated from system power cables (connected to
transformers, electrical motors, drivers, etc.) and must be correctly shielded (see below scheme):
Connect cable shield at PLC/machine side and leave the other end (driver side) open to prevent ground
loops
If possible, connect shields to a protected earth (a noise-free connection with a different path from
safety earth and power supply ground); it is just designed to connect command signals ground, cables
shields and all other noise sensitive devices
If protected earthis not available, use the power supply ground
Verify that all the ground/earth points are equipotential otherwise position and dimension of the
connections must be checked
Earth connection of the drivers is available on the main connector; take care to the correct earthing also
the valve
In case of high noise levels, use additional shields and filters to allow the correct working of the
electronic driver

5 Driver Electrical connections
E-MAN-RI-TERS/E-14 25Driver Operating Manual
5.2.1 Power supply (pin A,B - pin 1,2)
The power supply +24 VDC(maximum range 20 32 VDC) must be appropriately stabilized or rectified and
filtered (maximum ripple 10% VPP) and must grant at least 50W for each connected driver:
apply at least a 10000 F/40 V capacitance near the driver in case of single phase rectifiers
apply at least a 4700 F/40 V capacitance near the driver in case of three phase rectifiers
2,5A safety fuse is required in series to each driver power supply.
A minimum time of 270 to 590 ms has to be considered between the driver energizing with the 24VDCpower supply and when the valve is ready to operate. During this time the current to the valve
coils is switched to zero.
5.2.2 Reference input signal (pin D,E - pin 4,5)
The driver is designed to receive one analog reference input (pin D,E differential mode input); the reference
is referred to the common mode signal zero (pin 5).
The inputs range and polarity are software selectable within the 10 VDCmaximum range; default setting is 0 10 VDC.
Option /I
The reference input signal is software selectable within 20 mA maximum range; default range is
4 20 mA and allows cable break detection (see9 and15.3).
Option /Z
The reference input signal is available in common mode (pin 4 referred to pin 5) instead of the standard
differential mode
Do not use power supply ground (V0) as reference for input signals: the absorbed current of thedrivers power stage can affect analog signal quality.
Small values of input range settings can be more affected by electrical noise.
Drivers with fieldbus interface (-BC or -BP) can be software set to receive reference values directlyby the machine control unit (fieldbus master).
In this case the analog reference input signals can be used for start-up and maintenance operations;
if not used always connect references to AGND (pin5).
5.2.3 Monitor output signal (pin F,C - pin 6,5)
The driver generates one analog output signal to monitor the actual pressure measured on the system by
the transducer integral to valve (TERS execution) or remote to valve (AERS execution); the monitor output
signal (pin F/6 referred to pin C/5) can be software set to show other signals available in the driver (e.g.
analog or fieldbus reference).
The output polarity is software selectable within 10 VDCmaximum range (see11.8).Option /I
The maximum range of monitor output signal is 4 20 mA
Do not use power supply ground (V0) as reference for input signals: the absorbed current of thedrivers power stage can affect analog signal quality.
5.2.4 Enable input signal (pin 3,2) - only for /Z opt ion
To enable the driver, supply a +24 VDCon pin 3 referred to pin 2: when the Enable signal is set to zero the
valve functioning is disabled but the driver current output stage is still active (see15.4.2, to verify this
condition with the E-SW software). This condition is useful to maintain active the serial/fieldbus
communication and the other driver functions when the hydraulic regulation of the valve must be disabled.

26 E-MAN-RI-TERS/E-14Driver Operating Manual
5.2.5 Fault output (pin 11, 2) - only for /Z opt ion
Fault output signal indicates fault conditions of the driver (solenoid short circuits/not connected, reference
signal cable broken for 4 20 mA input, valve pressure transducers cable broken, etc; fault presence
corresponds to 0 VDC, normal working corresponds to 24 VDC(pin 11 referred to pin2); see15
Fault status is not affected by the status of the Enable input signal.
5.2.6 Double Power (pin 9, 10) - only for /Z option
Separate power supply for the solenoid and for the digital electronic circuits (pin 9,10).
Cutting solenoid power supply (pin 1,2) allows to interrupt the valve functioning but keeping energized the
digital electronics thus avoiding fault conditions of the machine fieldbus controller.
Pin 2 and 10 (zero Volt) are connected together inside the electronics; see 9.1 for power suppliesrequirements.
5.3 Remote transducer connection (AERS drivers)
Remote pressure transducer installed into the systems must be directly connected to AERS driver using
the dedicated M8 connector.
The input range and polarity are software selectable within the 10 VDCmaximum range; default setting is
0 +10 VDC(see11.2).
Option /C
The transducer input range is software selectable within 20 mA maximum range; default range is
4 20 mA and allows cable break detection (see15.3).
Proper selection and installation of the remote transducer is essential to obtain the bestperformances from pressure control system.
Small values of input range settings can be more affected by electrical noise.
Refer to technical table G465 for Atos E-ATR-7 pressure transducer characteristics.

5.4 Communication connection
Proper communication cables and USB adapter (see1.4.4)must be used to connect the driver to the PC
where E-SW software is installed (see QUICKSTART-** manuals for installation details).
5.4.1 Fieldbus communication connector
When the driver is connected to the main machine fieldbus network (see 1.3.5), always verify proper
wirings as described by the relevant standardization (see E-MAN-BC or E-MAN-BP manuals for further
details).
No master device must be active in a PROFIBUS DP fieldbus when using E-SW software tocommunicated with connected valve/drivers.
5.4.2 Hardware Node assignment
Driver node, unique identification in the fieldbus, can be set manually using a dip switch.
Remove the driver rear cover positioned on the programming connector side and set the node number
using the dip switch (binary coded).
Switch Switch on value Default

6 Driver parameters operation
To operate correctly E-RI-TER(AER)S drivers with the E-SW-** programming software you must always
consider how the driver and the software parameters are managed:
6.1 Parameters operation scheme
Driver Store operations (see6.2.3):
1) Store User Parameters
Driver Restore operations (see6.2.4):
2) Restore User Parameters
3) Restore Preset Parameters
Passing from OFF-LINE to ON-LINE (see6.3.1):
4) Upload Parameters5) Download Parameters
PC Setting File operations (see12):
6) Save setting file
7) Load setting file
6.2 Driver parameters
Two types of parameters are present into the driver (permanent and non-permanent) and store/restore
operations allow to define how they must be used:
6.2.1 Actual Parameters (non-permanent memory)
The driver functionality and regulation depend on its Actual Parameters that:
are automatically loaded at each power-on from the permanent memory of the driver
are lost when the driver is turned-off (non-permanent parameters)
can be displayed and modified using the E-SW software
6.2.2 Driver Preset/User/Emergency Parameters (permanent memory)
When the driver is turned-on, one of the following parameter sets is copied from this section to the Actual
Parameters (non-permanent memory) to define the driver functionalities:
PresetThis parameters set allows to start-up the driver with the factory setting
defined by Atos
User
This parameters set allows to start-up of the driver with the customized
values defined and stored by the user using E-SW software (as default
User Parameters and Preset Parameters are the same)
EmergencyThis parameters set allow to start-up the driver when Preset Parameters
and User Parameters contain corrupted data

E-MAN-RI-TERS/E-14 29Driver Operating Manual
If permanent memory is corrupted, the driver try to load alternative set:
Preset are loaded automatically in case of invalid User parameters
Emergency are loaded automatically in case of invalid Preset parameters
When invalid parameters are detected at power-on or driver restart (see9.3.4)the driver goes into
Fault condition; please contact Atos Technical Sales [email protected].
6.2.3 Store Driver Parameters
Store User This operation allows to store the driver Actual Parameters (non-
permanent) into the User Parameters (permanent) set;
At power-on the drive will automatically load the User Parameter settings
During the store/restore operations of the driver permanent memory:- power supply must be not turned off (driver parameter lose may occur) and the driver must be
disabled or in hydraulic null regulation
- current to valve solenoid is switched off, is best to operate store/restore with no active valve
regulation in the system
6.2.4 Restore Driv er Parameters
Two operations are available to select which parameters set has to be loaded into Actual parameters at
the next driver power-on:
Restore Preset
Preset Parameters will be load at next driver power-on Restore User User Parameters will be load at next driver power-on
During the restoring operations of the driver permanent memory: power supply must be not turned-off(driver parameter lose may occur) and the driver must be disabled or in null hydraulic regulation
6.3 E-SW parameters
6.3.1 E-SW Actual Parameters (non-permanent memory)
The Actual Parameters of E-SW programming software is the set of parameters displayed in the software
graphic interface.
The Actual Parameters values, depend on the communication status between the software and the driver:
ON-LINE
(communication active)
Actual Parameters of both software and driver are linked (every
change in the software is applied in the driver and vice versa)
OFF-LINE
(communication not active)Actual Parameters of the software are not linked to the driver (theycan be changed but this is not applied to the driver)

When passing from off-line to on-line mode, it is possible to select which Actual Parameters have to be
maintained between the software and the driver:
Upload Actual Parameters of the driver are maintained and are copied into
the software
Download Actual Parameters of the software are maintained and are copied
into the driver
To perform Download operation the Actual Parameters of the driver and the software must becompatible: if Driver Code parameter (see10.2) is not the same a message will display an error
condition.
During Download operation the valve/driver goes into a Disable state; after it check if thedownloaded parameter are valid. If the parameter are invalid the driver remain in Disable state and
return Invalid Download error (see9.2.3).
6.3.2 E-SW Setting Files (permanent memory)
E-SW and driver Actual Parameters can be stored or restored from the PC hard-disk as a Setting File
(see12): in any time it will be possible to restore these data into the Actual Parameter of the software and
of the driver.
Setting File can be used efficiently as a starting point when executing repetitive installation of thesame driver.

8 Main Window Communication area
In the bottom area of the Main window, it is possible to verify and change the status of communication
between the E-SW-** software and the E-RI-TER(AER)S-** drivers (see13.2).
8.1 ON-LINE/OFF-LINE mode
The indicator allows the user to verify the actual status of the communication between the E-SW
software and the connected driver (see6):
ON-LINE
(communication active)
Actual Parameters of both software and driver are linked (every
change in the software is applied in the driver and vice versa)
In this status the OFF-LINE button allows to disconnect the driver
from E-SW and to pass in OFF-LINE mode.
At start-up the E-SW software always tries to pass in ON-LINEmode if a valve/driver is properly connected.
Always use this communication mode to completely operate
and verify the connected driver.
OFF-LINE
(communication not active)
Actual Parameters of the software are not linked to the driver (they can
be changed but this is not applied to the driver)
In this status theON-LINE button allows to connect the driver from
E-SW and to switch in ON-LINE mode.

In ON-LINE mode displayed information are updated automatically.
In OFF-LINE mode displayed information remain frozen to the last status before disconnection
9.1 Working signals
This part of the Diagnostic area is dedicated to:
set and/or verify the reference signal used to control the proportional valve
verify the valve response to the commands (Feedback and PID out signals)
9.1.1 Reference Type
The control allows the user to select the source for the reference signal:
External Analog input signal (default selection) is used as reference signal; see11.1 to
modify the default input signal range
Internal Reference signal value is directly set by E-SW software (see 9.1.2); use this
setting to simply tuning or maintenance operations, and to evaluate the effect of
noise level on the analog reference signal.
Fieldbus Reference signal value is set by machine central unit using the fieldbus
communication (this selection is available only for BC and BP driver executions)

9.1.2 Reference Actual
The indicator allows the user to read the value of the reference signal
that actually selected (see9.1.1):Min -100%
Max 100%
External: the numerical value is in % of the maximum valve regulation and corresponds to the external
analog reference signal as defined by the range setting of the analog input signal (see 11.1)
Internal: the indicator becomes a control and allows to set the desired % of valve regulation
Whenever the driver power supply is switched off, the internal reference value is reset to 0%
Fieldbus: the numerical value is in % of the maximum valve regulation
9.1.3 Reference Demanded
The indicator allows the user to verify the % of the demanded valve
regulation once the actual reference signal has been elaborated by
Bias/Scale (see 11.3 and 11.4), Ramps (see 11.5) and Linearization
functions (see11.6).
Min -100%
Max 100%
9.1.4 Feedback
The indicator allows the user to verify the % of the real valve
regulation as readout by the relevant integral/remote transducer.Min 0%
Max 200%
Feedback values exceeding +100% can be displayed during dynamic conditions; in static workingconditions, reference and feedback must correspond
9.1.5 PID Out
This indicator allows the user to verify the % output of the closed loop
control action.
Min -200%
Max 200%
Control actions that reach the maximum/minimum output limits (see11.7), are possible indication ofanomalous working conditions (see9.2.1).

9.2 Driver status and warnings
This part of the Diagnostic area shows the actual valve/driver working conditions:
9.2.1 Driver status
The indicator displays in which status the driver is controlling the valve:
Active the driver is working normally
Disable the driver is disabled and no current is supplied to the solenoid.
Use enable pin (see 5.2.4)or fieldbus communication (see11.12) to
enable/disable the driver
Fault The driver is disabled due to the presence of fault conditions; no current is
supplied to the solenoid
To identify and solve the fault conditions use the Last Error description (see 9.2.1) or the moredetailed information of the Extended Diagnostic window (see15).
9.2.2 Alarm
The indicator allows the user to verify the presence of alarm conditions that has to be verified.
Alarm conditions always correspond also to the presence of a 0V on the digital output fault pin of the
main connector (see5.2.5)To identify and solve the alarm conditions use the Last Error description or the more detailedinformation of the Extended Diagnostic window (see15).
As default the driver automatically returns to Active state when no error is present (see15.3.1 Fault
Acknowledge)

This part of the Diagnostic area allow the user to verify/set which of the permanent parameter set stored
into the driver memory has been loaded at power-on into driver Actual Parameters (see6).
9.3.1 Requested
The indicator allows the user to verify which parameter set will be loaded at next power-on: use
store/restore operations (see9.3.3 and15.5.3)to change these settings.
9.3.2 Loaded
The indicator allows the user to verify which parameter set has been loaded at last power-on.
If Requested and Loaded indicators contain different value after power-on, Last error displaysInvalid parameters message and the driver is disabled (see9.2.3):
[Loaded = Preset and Requested = User] Atos factory parameters have been loaded andUser contains invalid data.
[Loaded = Emergency and Requested = User or Preset] both driver parameters contain
invalid parameters, please contact Atos service for troubleshooting
9.3.3 Store User Parameters
This button allows the user to store the driver Actual parameters into the User parameters
permanent memory (see6.1).
During parameters storing operations, power supply to the valve solenoid is switched-off: do not usethis function during system normal working.
Never switch-off the drivers power supply during storing operations: permanent parameters storedinto the driver may result invalid!
