The PROP CAN valve controller with CAN bus regulates the flow rate of a proportional valve. It can be used in many hydraulic applications. CAN high speed or CAN low speed (alternatively RS485) can be used to communicate with other modules and supports easy integration into existing systems.
Function
The microcontroller-based current regulator provides a constant output current proportional to the set point value 0 - 10 Volt or 0 - 20 mA. Control and data download via CAN bus interface is supported. Supply voltage and temperature fluctuations are compensated which ensures constant flow rates. To counteract stiction and hysteresis effects a dither frequency can be adjusted (superimposed small rectangular ripple frequency). Please refer to the section housings and base plates for additional housing options.
