Adjustments
EATON DPPP Catalog October 20112
The gain of the valve is the ratio of the opening of the valve 
(or flow rate from it) to the applied voltage input to the power 
plug. The ramp rate is the rate at which the power plug allows 
the valve to open (or close) when a step voltage input is ap-
plied to the power plug. In many applications this ramp would 
be used to gradually accelerate or decelerate an actuator.
Installation precautions to eliminate leaks into the power 
plug:
 • Use only cables with circular cross-sections and diameter 
between 5–10 mm (.2” - .4”)
 • Ensure that sealing grommet is present and installed 
correctly. It must be forced over the outer jacket of the 
cable.
 • Ensure that all the gaskets are present and properly 
seated.
 • Ensure that the plastic cover seats firmly and correctly on 
the center body post.

This procedure describes the adjustments on the Power Plug 
for setting the dead-band, gain and ramp rate on a non-feed-
back proportional valve. Proportional valves with over-lapped 
spools have a range of spool travel where there is no flow 
from the valve. This range of spool motion is called dead-
band. Adjusting the power plug allows the dead-band to be 
electronically eliminated (dead-band Compensation) by mak-
ing the spool jump across the dead-band when a small input 
signal is applied to the power plug.
Set-up Procedure
e – Cable connection option 
  1 – PG9 cable clamp 
  2 – M16 cable clamp 
  3 – M12 5 pin connector
Features and Benefits
 • Integral amplifier provides essential functions for control 
of proportional valves.
 • Adjustable ramp time, gain, dead band compensation 
through potentiometer or RS232/CAN communication (via 
software).
 • Ease of installation, with reduced cost.
 • Fully short-circuit and reverse-polarity protected.
 • Differential voltage command signal.
 • Options with RS232 and CAN communication.
 • Peak and Hold Functionality.
 • PG9, M16 cable clamp and M12 connector options.
 • Adjustable dither.
 • EMC to latest European standards.
 • Protection to IP67
 • Available with CANOpen communications
Application
 • Designed for the control of direct-operated, non-feed-
back, proportional valves where the cost of more com-
plex electronic controls can be avoided.
This product has been designed and tested to meet specific standards outlined in the European Electromagnetic Compatibility
Directive (EMC) 89/336/EEC, amended by 91/263/EEC, 92/31/EEC and 93/68/EEC, article 5. For instructions on installation
requirements to achieve effective protection levels, see this leaflet and the Installation Wiring Practices for Vickers Electronic
Products leaflet 2468. Wiring practices relevant to this Directive are indicated by Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC).

Warning: Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) 
Screened cables should be used and particular attention paid to the grounding of the screens as shown in the above diagrams.
Start-Up Procedure:
 • Correctly wire the plug and, before mounting it on the 
valve solenoid, apply supply voltage to the “power input” 
terminals.
 • Check for correct plug function by illumination/non-illu-
mination of the LED. The Power on LED (Red) should il-
luminate when the correct supply is given. And the PWM 
LED (Yellow) should illuminate when demand applied to 
the “signal input” terminal is correct and within limit If 
there is a malfunction a new plug must be fitted.
 • Switch off power supply and command/input signal and 
then install plug on solenoid. Ensure that all seals are 
fitted correctly and clamped as the retaining screw is 
tightened: this is essential in providing IP67 protection.
 • Ensure that the hydraulic system will not cause any er-
ratic movement of actuators, then:
 • Switch on power supply again. Repeat LED/function 
check. An LED malfunction now indicates a short circuit 
at the load.
 • Successful completion of these checks means that the 
plug and load are ready for use.
Note: For EHH-AMP-7X2-N-C-N-3-30 wiring diagram please refer the con-
nection diagram for the same.
