3.7.3 Cleaning, storage, transport
The product should only be transported and stored in the original packaging to ensure suitable protection against
mechanical damage as well as electrostatic discharge.
• Keep the amplifier card away from moisture and dust
• Observe the allowed storage and transportation temperature range
• If it should be necessary to clean the amplifier, we recommend sending it back to the manufacturer or any distributor
and partner:
See □ Chapter "3.7.1 Inquiries and ordering", page 10
Unpacking and handling should be left to suitably trained personnel.
Beware of damaging the amplifier by electrostatic discharge
3.7.4 Delivery state (default setting)
The product is shipped in a ready-to-use state (default settings). After correct installation and setting of all parameters
relevant for the application, the digital amplifier and controller card is ready for use.
3.8 Introduction
The digital amplifier and controller card DAC-4x(A) features leading edge technology. This electronic device meets the
industrial standards for EMC. This ensures a high interference security and low interference emission.
The performance characteristics are possible through the use of the most current microprocessor technology (32-bit
floating-point CPU) combined with other state of the art components. In addition to all control functions, the
microprocessor also handles closed-loop control. The system features are essentially determined by the software and
provide reserve capacity for further developments and adaptations.
The following features distinguish the DAC-4x(A) series:
• Fully digitized amplifier card with the advantage of
• no on-board potentiometer
• no jumper settings required
• digital setting and display of all parameters by means of PC with HCSTool
• user safety during parameterization
• flexible and reliable system:
• use of a modern 32-Bit floating point µC
• high performance and yet power reserve
• high reliability and safety through the use of a integrated watch-dog and reset function
• variable settings for magnetic systems making high flexibility possible
• functional use of the interface:
• change of selected parameters “on-the-fly” without interference or interruptions of the working cycle
• analyzing of system performance through selection of display parameters with the PC and by using the 4-channel
oscilloscope function included in HCSTool
• bus interfaces available (PROFIBUS/PROFIDRIVE, PROFINET, ETHERNET/IP, CAN-OPEN)
3.9 General Applications
The amplifier card DAC-4x(A) is used for:
• With or without electrical feedback transducers
• proportional directional valves direct and pilot operated
• proportional flow control valves
• proportional pressure reducing valves
• proportional pressure regulating valves
• cartridge valves
• servo valves with torque motors
• Controlling of hydraulic motors, - installations and – systems, e.g.:
• position
• speed
• pressure
• revolutions per minute
