Controls and Radio Remote Controls for AMI Electrical Directional Control Valves

Description

General Overview of Control Systems

The integration of advanced control systems within hydraulic circuits is essential to ensure operational precision and safety. The range of Controls and radio remote controls for AMI electrical directional control valves offers a complete set of interfaces for managing hydraulic flows, supporting both proportional and ON-OFF actuation. Engineered by Oleodinamica AMI, these devices are designed to interface directly and optimally with a wide variety of electrical directional control valves, ensuring rapid response and accurate control of operating machinery and industrial plants.

Control Types and Available Versions

The flexibility of the series makes it possible to select the most suitable control interface based on circuit complexity and operator ergonomic requirements. The technical catalogue includes four primary configurations, each dedicated to specific hydraulic applications:

• CONS…F Series: Console for proportional electrical control. Configurable from 1 to 6 functions, this unit is specifically dedicated to pairing with VPF systems. It enables continuous and precise modulation, which is essential for movements requiring smoothness and accurate flow rate control.
• COM…F Series: Control box for ON-OFF electrical directional control valves. Designed for standard directional operations, this unit is available with a variable number of levers from 1 to 6, enabling centralized management of multiple directional valve sections.
• COM…J Series: Control box with integrated joystick for ON-OFF electrical control. Powered at 12/24 Vdc, it delivers ergonomic multi-axis control, ideal for mobile machinery and control stations where joystick actuation provides higher operating efficiency compared to conventional levers.
• RXVE Series: Radio remote control for directional control valves with ON-OFF electrical control. The system comes complete with a receiver unit and a transmitter unit. This solution removes the constraint of physical wiring between operator and valve, significantly enhancing safety and visibility during remote operations.

Compatibility and Supported Series

A technical aspect of prime importance for Controls and radio remote controls for AMI electrical directional control valves is the high standardization of connections, which guarantees coupling across multiple brand directional valve families. The control units (CONS…F, COM…F, COM…J, RXVE) are fully compatible with the following directional valve series: AMI 3, AMI 4, AMI 21R, AMI 250, AMI 300, AMI 130, AMI 700, AMI 012, AMI 013, AMI 5C (SC), AMI 42C, and AMI 12C. This broad interchangeability reduces the need for customized adapters and simplifies retrofitting or maintenance procedures on existing systems.

Construction and Electrical Features

All control modules feature a compact industrial layout designed to withstand typical hydraulic application environments. Wiring and connectors are sized to ensure optimal signal continuity. Specifically, joystick versions (COM…J) operate at low direct voltage (12/24 Vdc), ensuring direct compatibility with the electrical standards of industrial vehicles and earth-moving machinery. The modular approach (from 1 to 6 functions) allows the control system to be scaled to match the exact number of working sections on the slave hydraulic directional control valve.
