The Hydraforce 4204800 (4204800) is a state-of-the-art, microprocessor-based valve driver specifically designed for hydraulic proportional valve applications. This compact, plug-in style device efficiently drives a single coil according to a user-defined metering profile, which can be either a straight-line or multi-sloped output. Configurations are easily managed through HFImpulse, a user-friendly software tool provided by Hydraforce. The EVDRA model is adept at receiving input from various analog or digital operator interface devices such as joysticks, potentiometers, and sensors. The input signal directly influences the output current to enable precise and proportional metering of the hydraulic valve. This responsiveness ensures optimal system performance as changes in input lead to corresponding adjustments in output following the preset metering profile. Built-in diagnostics enhance the EVDRA's functionality by detecting faults and automatically shifting to a safe mode where the valve remains off if any input falls below 0.5 Vdc. It also identifies and responds to short or open circuit conditions by deactivating the output until the issue is resolved, at which point it reverts to standard operation. Additionally, this model comes with an LED output indicator on its front panel for real-time status updates. The EVDRA offers versatility through multiple personalities that cater to different applications, making it an essential tool for general-purpose valve driving needs.
