Main Pump Control Proportional Valves (Main Pumps 1-4 -3Y1) (Main Pumps 5-8 -4Y1)

The purpose of the main pump control proportional valves is to regulate the main pump flow in relation to the demand of the operator (Joystick).
The flow is also controlled in relation to the Engine RPM (Engine load) to ensure the engine is not overloaded.
In case of to high temperatures in the hydraulic system (hydraulic oil tank) or the engine (coolant / intake manifold) the pump flow is reduced to 80%.

Travel Proportional Valves

The travel proportional valves are supplied by 35 bar servo pressure. They are controlled by the foot pedal deflection (CanBus).
The servo controller box coverts this signal into a current (70-650mA) which is active on the coil of the valve.
The valve outlets (0-35bar) are connected to the travel main valves and control the position of the valve spool.

Swing Proportional Valves:

The swing proportional valves (Left -2Y15, Right -2Y16) are supplied by 35 bar servo pressure. They are controlled by the joystick deflection
(CanBus). The servo controller box coverts this signal into a current (70-650mA) which is active on the coil of the valve. The valve outlets (0-22bar) are
connected to the swing balance valve and the variable pressure controls the position of the big spool inside the valve.

Swing Pressure Adjustment

This reducing valve is adjusted to ~ 22 bar. It limits the swing pressure to max 352 bar. (16*22 bar)

Swing Balance Valve

The swing balance valve is supplied by 35 bar pressure and controls the flow direction inside the swing pump in relation to the demand of the joystick
and the pressure in the swing system. The valve has a big spool in the middle and two small spools on the sides. The ratio is 16:1.

Swing Flushing Valve

The valve flushes a controlled amount of oil out of the closed swing circuit.
This allows fresh, cold oil to enter the system over the charge pump.

SIL Solenoid Valves (X1 = -2Y30) (X2 = -2Y31)

The purpose of these solenoids is to switch of the swing pump control pressure (X1 + X2 connected to tank) to induce a brake effect in case of a fault
occurs to the swing system. The swing movement is braked due to the swing pump controller piston moves to the neutral position.

Swing Balance Valve Supply - 35 bar

This Valves reduces the 60 bar servo Pressure to 35 bar as supply on the p-port of the swing balance valve.

2nd speed travelling – 50 bar

When the operator shifts the switch in the cab from 'low speed' (turtle) to 'high speed’ (rabbit), the pressure in the line to the travel park brake
and travel motor regulator is increased to 50 bar and the regulators are shifted to low displacement.
The 50 bar overcomes the 30 bar at the shuttle valve on the rotary joint and the 2nd speed is active. (Solenoid -2Y22)

Travel Park Brake – 30 bar

The travel park brake is spring applied and hydraulically released. The brake is released fully, if we use a pressure of 30 bar.
The solenoid valve -2Y17 is energized and oil enters the travel park brake piston via the rotary joint. They are released and held in the released position.
The pressure is reduced to 30 bar to be sure that the brake is open.

Swing Park Brake - 50 bar

The swing park brake is spring applied and hydraulically released. In the de-energized position of solenoid -2Y23, the swing brake is connected to tank.
=> Brakes are applied.
When the swing brake is released, -2Y23 is energized and 50 bar is supplied to the swing brakes, overcoming the spring tension => brakes are released.
Note: You must not stop the swing movement by using the swing park brake!!! This will occur heavy demolition on the brake disks!

Pump regulation – 50 bar

This valves supplies 50 bar pressure to the pump control proportional valve.

Pilot Pressure 60 bar

This relief valve limits the incoming pressure from Servo Pump 1+4 to 60 bar.

Servo On/Off (Solenoid -2Y18 - 35 bar)

This solenoid is operated by the seat switch and switches the 35 bar Pressure supply to the consumers on or off.

P-Port on Main Pumps

This outlet is used to supply the main pumps with an initial pressure on the p-Port of each main pump. (X2 Port on older pumps).

Servo On/Off (Solenoid -2Y18 - 50 bar)

This solenoid is operated by the seat switch and switches the 50 bar Pressure supply to the consumers on or off.

Travel Boost (Solenoid -2Y24 - 40 bar)

The solenoid valve (-2Y24) operates the pressure cut-off valves of main pumps 1 + 7 / 2 + 8 so that the pressure is increased to 320bar + 40bar = 360 bar

.
Track Tensioning (Solenoid -2Y120 – (80 bar)

This valve increases the track tensioning pressure from 50bar to 80 bar. This causes a pressure release in the track tensioning system.

Clam Boost (Solenoid -2Y27 – 40 bar)

The solenoid (-2Y27) operates the pressure cut-off valves of the main pumps 2 + 8, so that the clam pressure is increased to 320bar + 40bar = 360 bar
The clam boost function is only connected if necessary, machines with upgraded clam cylinders do not use this function!

80 bar Outlet Port

This outlet is used to supply the hydraulic ladder, the service arm and the automatic lubrication system.
