Controls

At Sauer-Danfoss, we deliver precise machine control – in products that are highly functional, reliable, durable and easy to install in your machines. With a wide array of products and systems, we can equip you with traditional manually operated or hydraulic pilot controls – or the latest in electronic control.

Our valve solutions satisfy even the most complex control challenges. Sauer-Danfoss valves are designed to be flexible. The modularity of our directional control valves, variety of our cartridge valves and flexibility of our electrohydraulic products allow Sauer-Danfoss valves to be used in any mobile applications.

Sauer-Danfoss expertise assures the best valve technology for the application. Any sectional valve can be combined with cartridge valves in a Hydraulic Integrated Circuit to create a “Hybrid” valve solution. This combination of valve technologies allows Sauer-Danfoss to offer the best balance of functionality, performance and price.

Through innovation and advances in technology, the reliability of electronics in harsh environments has been proven with our PLUS+1™ control network. Also, because of its versatility and expandability, development time is reduced – and you get to market faster.

Our market-leading PLUS+1™ technology utilizes digital signal processing (DSP) over a CAN bus network. PLUS+1™ is built around a line of rugged, powerful microcontrollers with high I/O capability and PLUS+1™ Compliant components for advanced control design. Component options include graphical display terminals, sensors, and joysticks.

Using the GUIDE software development environment, you can assemble control functions in “building-blocks” to create an integrated and user-friendly control system. With PLUS+1™, it’s easy to configure a system that supports hydraulic components with an electronic interface. Additional PLUS+1™ advantages include the capabilities for enhanced machine safety features and easy diagnostic functions.

Through this innovative solution, you have the flexibility to build a control system that’s ideally suited for your equipment needs. Additional advantages of PLUS+1™ include robust electronic components certified to industry standards, flexible and expandable architecture and, of course, precise performance of control functions.

Finally, all Sauer-Danfoss electronic control systems undergo rigorous testing cycles and surpass industry standards. You get a highly integrated control solution that’s appropriate for any kind of mobile machine.
