HCY controller

Availability
In stock
The HCY is a universal control device for mobile hydraulic applications. It is based on the proven Völkel platform, which contains two decades of experience in control system engineering. Safety features and a CAN network make it possible to use the HCY control system in a versatile manner and for complex tasks. The user can adopt the HCY to the requested control functions by software, supported by the PC software tool ConDoc.
The HCY Hardware is also available as programmable logic controller. In this way the advantages of a controller tested in rough environment complement with the benefits of free programming according to the international standard IEC 61131-3. Integrated current drivers for proportional solenoids, analogue inputs, frequency and switch inputs effect quick programming.
Highlights
  • Robust aluminum housing for outdoor use, equipped with a ventilation membrane and a status LED, protection category IP65, IP69K
  • Two microcontrollers XC167CI / 40 MHz and C505CA / 4 MHz for reciprocal monitoring, each with voltage regulation, cycle generation and watchdog
  • Six configurable switch inputs
  • Four configurable frequency inputs
  • One rotary frequency sensor input, pickup
  • One clamp W, frequency input
  • Eight configurable analogue inputs
  • Four switch outputs
  • Six proportional solenoid outputs
  • One safety relay for safety cut off
  • One power supply output for Namur sensors and potentiometers
  • Power supply: 8 VDC to 32 VDC
  • Two CAN interfaces (29-bit CAN-IDs) for communication, expansion, connection
  • Use of CAN network variables via standard CAN (11-bit ID) and extended CAN (29-bit ID) for easy information exchange between two or more controllers
    Adjustable CAN end resistors (110 Ω)
  • One RS-232 interface for communication with programming software ConDoc
  • Reverse pole and overvoltage protection
  • Flexible use of inputs and outputs due to parameter setting for selected functions
  • Additional means of switching off using a safety relay according to the principle of closed circuit current
  • Monitoring the current supply and reverse measurement of all outputs
  • Various possibilities for monitoring inputs and outputs (e.g. recognition of cable breaks and short circuits).
  • Plausibility checks for safety-critical parameters by logic operation and limit value monitoring
