MOD10 Electro-Hydraulic Remote Control System

It can be used for four typical proportional functions, e.g.

-Slewing (rotation of crane)
-Main lift
-Jib
-Extension
-Grab open/close
-Rotator

You can also choose a different function as below:

Extremely easy to use, safe, fast, and precise; its electronic core, based on advanced microprocessor technology, is highly configurable.

If you have a crane with a valve manually controlled by levers, this kit is for you. Extremely easy to use, safe, fast, and precise; its electronic core, based on advanced microprocessor technology, is highly configurable.

With this kit, you can retain your existing hydraulic valve and control the crane remotely using a radio.

However, the kit is complete and does not need such a high-quality valve. This kit comes with a servo unit that connects to the con rods or directly to a standard control valve, which replicates the user’s hands pushing and pulling the levers. The servo unit will connect to the original control valve on the crane or the connection rods to the auxiliary side.

The “Mini” is a compact and versatile transmitter that can be easily adapted to customer requirements. Thanks to its modular design, the “Mini” can be supplied with either 1 to 6 linear levers or 1 to 3 joysticks and additional buttons and switches. Despite the compact format, all operating elements are sufficiently large and designed for long and fatigue-free operation.

In addition to standard functions, the transmitter also offers numerous optional settings and functions for optimum operator guidance. The speed of proportional movements can be set in five stages using a latching switch. The operator receives feedback from the controlled machine via the display and LEDs. Automatic frequency management ensures trouble-free operation even in the event of interference from other radio devices in the vicinity.

On-site calibration allows authorized users to adjust system settings without additional tools or software. The transmitter has an individual identification code and communicates with the receiver via a proprietary protocol. This ensures that no other transmitters (from Scanreco or other manufacturers) can accidentally activate the machine.

The tamping function complies with performance level “e” (PL e), the highest level according to ISO 13849-1, a legally binding standard for safety-critical control components.

The “G2” receiver is available with proportional and digital outputs as well as a CANopen interface. Thanks to its numerous interfaces and setting options, the “G2” is suitable for practically all mobile hydraulic applications.

The analog output signals can control voltage and current-controlled hydraulic valve blocks. Several receivers can be connected in a master-slave configuration if more functions are required than a single receiver can provide. The numerous functions of the integrated basic controller support a wide range of performance and functions.

The basic controller makes it possible to dispense with numerous external electronic components (PLC, relays, diodes, etc.).

The portable control unit is impact and weather-resistant and is lightweight and compact. Controls are available for 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8 manoeuvre functions. The manoeuvre levers are fully proportional and have a spring return to the zero position (i.e., a “dead-man’s-handle”). The control unit has an emergency stop function, which will immediately stop all movement. All manoeuvre levers are protected with a protective frame against unintentional activation and against mechanical damage.

The control unit has multi-step micro-speed operation as standard, enabling instantaneous temporary reduction of speed, and it can also be equipped with a large number of switches for ON/OFF functions. An LED and sound signal are used to indicate such things as operating and battery status, and for simple and diagnostic fault finding. ( See picture of control unit ).

MOD10 Proportional ServoControl Actuator Block. 

The hydraulic bank MOD10 electrohydraulic system, when coupled with a manual hydraulic distributor, allows for remote control.

The bank is made up of a manifold with mounted on as many sections (modules) as the movements to activate. All the modules are identical and they are fixed to the manifold with four screws stays. Each module works as a standalone.

The coupling of the hydraulic bank pistons to the manual distributor, already mounted on the machine, is done by brackets to screw on the dual control rods, which have to be coupled with the forks mounted on each piston.

It is possible to connect the forks to a different leverage system as long as it is guaranteed, with the right slots, enough play to prevent stress in different direction other than the axial one.

The product has a high reliability.

The installation of this block adds to a hydraulic valve a remote control, by cable or by radio. The specific design for the dual control rods allows their installation on any type of hydraulic mechanical valve.

Electrical specifications:

PWM solenoids (voltage signal)

The MOD10 offers 3 section spacing options; please specify which one you choose when purchasing.

Each module is made up of a hydraulic cylinder commanded by two proportional valves with mechanical feedback.

There are two mechanical strokes to choose from: 13 mm and 20 mm.

Hydraulic scheme:

Electrical connections:

Perfect for 6 functions HIAB, JONSERED, PICKER, HMF, ATLAS, FASSI, PALFINGER, as well as many other brands.

This kit is configured for the most popular machine settings, supporting up to 6 standard crane functions. If you require a different dedicated configuration, we can customize it to meet your needs, including variations in voltage, the number of sections, etc. Please send us a diagram, and we can assist further.
