Eaton
Electro-hydraulic Fan Drive System E-SYFD-MROO1-E3 October 2008
Two Methods of Control
1. Integrated Fan Drive
System
Interface the Fan Drive
System to your engine
control module to execute
the cooling strategy exactly
as directed by the engine
control module.
2. Stand-alone Fan Drive
System
Define your own cooling
logic using the TCA or EFX,
electronic controller.
By adding electronics to an
Eaton Electro-hydraulic Fan
Drive System, users can tai-
lor the system to their needs.
Fan drive control param-
eters are adjusted through a
user-friendly graphical user
interface (GUI).
This GUI, the GUI for the TCA
is shown below, walks the
designer through the defini
-
tion process with real-time
graphical feedback to clearly
indicate the system’s re-
sponse to each modification.
System data can also be
graphically monitored and
saved to verify actual
results. When the cooling
logic is fully defined,
resulting parameters are
saved and used for
exact system
duplication for your
production application.
Setup Screen
The Setup Screen feature
allows the user to define his
own cooling logic by setting
in the required parameters.
Component Screen
The Component Screen gives
the user an overview of the
system and allows the user
to click on the components
and enter a description.
Control F(x)™
Programming Software
Eaton CONTROL F(x)
software allows you to
develop programs for
controlling electrohydraulic
components and systems.
Eaton provides control
function libraries based on
the IEC 61131-3 standard
that reduce application
development time. With the
CONTROL F(x) graphical
interface, you can create,
debug, and monitor the
control logic. This creates
a reliable system that can
be rapidly developed,
tested, implemented, and
maintained.
Monitor Screen
The Monitor Screen allows
the user to monitor the
system.
