13 Axial piston variable motor | A6VM series 71
EP – Proportional electric control
EP – Proportional electric control
The proportional electric control provides infinite setting of
the displacement. Control is proportional to the electric
control current applied to the solenoid.

Note
The control oil is internally taken out of the high pressure
side of the motor (A or B). For reliable control, an operating
pressure of at least 435psi (30bar) is necessary in A (B).
If a control operation is performed at an operating pressure
<435psi (30bar), an auxiliary pressure of at least 435psi
(30bar) must be applied at port G using an external check
valve. For lower pressures, please contact us.
Please note that pressures up to 7250psi (500bar) can
occur at port G.
Response time damping
The response time damping is influencing the stroke char-
acteristics of the motor and thus the reaction speed of the
machine.
