OBE (On Board Electronics) is the best and most direct way to correct non-linear behavior of your valve. The sensor and electronics in the valve body implement a control circuit on the front line of the system. Mechanical tolerances, friction, hysteresis, and wear no longer cause drive motion failure.
For modern machine monitoring, sensor information can also be sent to the main controller.
Advantages of implementing proportional technology
Efficiency, speed, precision, low hysteresis, repeatability and the ability to adapt control are the main benefits of introducing proportional technology in hydraulic applications.
ARGO-HYTOS valves, combined with advanced electronics, are capable of meeting the demands posed by a wide variety of stationary and mobile applications.
