 S42 Electrical Displacement Control (EDC)
Product Electrical Installation Technical Information
Product Overview

Description/ The Electrical Displacement Control (EDC) uses an electrohydraulic Pressure Control
Theory of Operation Pilot (PCP) stage to provide a differential pilot pressure. The PCP stage converts an
electrical input signal to a hydraulic input signal to operate a spring centered sensing
piston. The sensing piston produces a mechanical input to the servo control valve which
ports hydraulic pressure to either side of the servo piston. The servo piston operates the
swashplate varying the pump’s displacement and flow direction.

The position of the swashplate is proportional to the electrical input signal. The control
has mechanical feedback that regulates the servo valve in relation to swashplate
position to maintain displacement at the commanded level regardless of changes in
system pressure. Any swashplate position error is fed back to the servo valve for instant
correction.

The servo control valve has variable geometry porting to regulate swashplate response
relative to input command. The control performs small displacement change commands
with maximum controllability throughout the entire stroking range of the pump. It
completes large displacement change commands with rapid swashplate response.
Optional servo supply and drain orifices are available for special response needs.

WWarning
Unintended vehicle or machine movement hazard.
The loss of hydrostatic drive line power, in any mode of operation (forward, neutral, or
reverse) may cause the system to lose hydrostatic braking capacity. You must provide a
braking system, redundant to the hydrostatic transmission, sufficient to stop and hold
the vehicle or machine in the event of hydrostatic drive power loss.
