Principles of Structure and Function

Core structure: composed of valve body (including servo grade valve core/sleeve), control electromagnet with position sensor, integrated electronic components (OBE), reset spring, optional damping plate and electronic protective film.

Working principle: Integrated electronic components (OBE) compare command signals with actual position signals of the valve core, drive electromagnets to adjust valve core displacement, and achieve proportional control of flow/direction; When the power is cut off, the reset spring pushes the valve core to the safe failure position to ensure system safety.

safety function

Fault protection: When the power supply voltage is below the threshold (15V) and the command signal is abnormal (such as F1 interface<2mA), the electromagnet loses power and the valve core resets.

IO Link shutdown: Cut off the power supply (Class B port) through the IO Link master station, switch the valve core to the safe position, and meet the Cat3 PL d safety level.

Installation and maintenance specifications

Installation requirements

Installation surface: Surface roughness Rzmax 4, flatness 0.01/100mm, requires the use of specified M6 × 40 installation screws, tightening torque 12.5Nm (Rexroth original screws) or 15.5Nm (universal screws).

Cable connection: 6-core+PE cable (wire diameter 0.75~1.0mm ²), up to 40m; IO Link interface uses M12-5 core A code cable (up to 20m, wire diameter ≥ 0.34mm ²).

Maintenance points

Oil maintenance: Maintain oil cleanliness at ISO 18/16/13 level, regularly replace filters to avoid impurities causing valve core jamming.

Electrical maintenance: It is prohibited to modify the factory preset potentiometer; Check the integrity of the cable sheath and replace it promptly if it is damaged.

Special maintenance: Electronic protective film (-967) is required for high humidity/temperature cycling environments; Optional damping plate (D) for vibration frequency>300Hz scenarios.
