Introduction
Definition
The Model 506.82/.92 Hydraulic Power Unit (HPU) uses two variablevolume (pressure compensated) main pumps, with a pressurized
(supercharged) hydraulic fluid inlet, to provide pressure to systems with
various flow requirements. The HPU is designed to be used with servocontrolled, electro-hydraulic systems.
Model 506.82/.92 Hydraulic Power Unit
Introduction
1-1
1.1
Functional Description
Front panel controls
and indicators
Front panel controls on the HPU include local operating controls and two
running time meters. Front panel indicators show power on, low oil
level, fluid over-temperature, motor overload and dirty filter conditions.
Pressure output
The output pressure is controlled by an adjustment on the main pumps
and is monitored by the output pressure gage. An adjustable back-up
relief valve limits output pressure by porting fluid back to the reservoir
when the output pressure rises above the relief valve setting.
High/low pressure operation is controlled by the high/low solenoid
valves. These valves control the main pressure control (pressure
compensator) vent ports and the backup relief valve vent port.
Pressure
accumulation
The pressure accumulator smoothes the HPU output pressure and
provides additional hydraulic flow for dynamic actuator demands. It is
precharged with dry nitrogen to a pressure proportional to HPU output
pressure. The slow turn-on accumulator slows the rate at which the
backup relief valve shifts from low to high pressure.
Temperature
control
A temperature gage indicates hydraulic fluid temperature. An
oil-to-water heat exchanger controls the fluid temperature. When the
temperature exceeds a preset limit, a temperature sensitive switch turns off
the HPU and lights the front panel Over-Temperature indicator.
Fluid level indication
A transparent gage indicates the level of hydraulic fluid in the HPU
reservoir. A low-level switch automatically turns off the HPU and lights
the front panel Low Oil Level indicator if hydraulic fluid drops below a
preset level.
Programmable logic
controller
The PLC (programmable logic controller) located in the starter assembly
performs logic functions. The I/O (input/output) section of the PLC
provides an interface for various signals received from or sent to external
devices.
An optional module can be added to the PLC if remote control of the
HPU is required. This module provides the additional output indicators
needed for the remote control option.
Introduction

Specifications
The required water pressure between the input and the output of the heat
exchanger is 30 to 45 psi (0.2 to 0.3 MPa). The maximum allowable
pressure is 120 psig (0.8 psid). The flow rate (±20%) at a given temperature
is shown in the table below.

3.1.2 Hydraulic Fluid
Regular maintenance of hydraulic fluid maximizes the service life of the
system and its components.
Daily fluid checks
Monthly fluid
checks
Yearly (every 500
operating hours)
fluid checks
Check the fluid-level in the transparent gage. A low level can indicate a
leak. A high level can indicate water contamination from the heat
exchanger. If the fluid appears to have changed significantly, obtain a
sample from the HPU reservoir and check it for the following qualities:
•
Considerable darkness, burnt odor, or an opaque quality of the fluid
indicates chemical breakdown. It may also indicate that the fluid
temperature was too high. Replace the fluid.
•
During operation, a milky appearance indicates water is present in
the fluid. If the system is not in operation, water separates from the
hydraulic fluid and settles at the bottom of the reservoir. If water
contamination is present, correct the source of the water leakage and
replace the hydraulic fluid.
Perform these checks monthly or every 150 operating hours (whichever
comes first).
•
Keep records of the maximum reservoir temperature. High operating
temperatures can cause the fluid to break down.
•
Check for contamination and fluid breakdown. Take a fluid sample
and test the pH level using a pH kit (available from chemical stores).
Also, check the sample for color and odor.
•
Take a fluid sample and let it stand overnight. Sediment at the bottom
of the fluid indicates collapsed, ruptured or clogged filters.
Obtain a sample of the fluid and have it analyzed. The fluid tests should
include chemical analysis, particle count, and viscosity checks. Record the
results and replace the fluid if necessary.

Then drain the oil from the entire system (such as from the hoses
and accumulators).
Dispose of the fluid according to company policy.
VW-G042D
3. Remove the top plate from the reservoir.
4. Wipe the inside of the reservoir with a clean lint-free cloth. Apply
MOBILSOL A—a solvent for cleaning and flushing hydraulic
systems—to a clean lint-free cloth and again wipe the reservoir.
Immediately wipe away the solvent with a dry cloth.
5. Replace the high-pressure filter element. See Subsection 3.1.1.1.
6. Replace the low-pressure filter element. See Subsection 3.1.1.2.
! CAUTION
To avoid damage to the hydraulic system, follow these precautions:
Do not mix different brands of hydraulic fluid.
This can create contaminants. Ensure that the replacement hydraulic fluid
is the same brand and type as the fluid which was removed. Generally, an
MTS Hydraulic Power Unit contains Mobil DTE 25 hydraulic fluid.
Consult MTS before you use alternate fluids.
Use a transfer pump that provides 10-micron or better filtration.
Most commercial hydraulic fluids exceed the maximum amount of
contamination allowable in MTS hydraulic systems.

Precharging the Accumulators
If the pressure accumulator has a pressure-level change of ±200 psi
between checks, recharge it. If the slow turn-on accumulator has a
pressure-level change of ±50% between checks, recharge it.
The pressure and slow turn-on accumulators are typically precharged to
1000 psi (7 MPa) and 800 psi (5.5 MPa), respectively. These are the
recommended levels for an HPU output pressure of 3000 psi (21 MPa).
3.1.3.3
Changing the Accumulator Seals
When you have established a regular interval for checking the precharge
pressure, note the amount of pressure loss that occurs each time the
precharge pressure is checked. If an increase in pressure loss occurs
during the period between checks, the seals may require replacement.

Theory of Operation
5-1
Main and
supercharge pumps
The HPU uses two variable-volume pressure compensated main pumps,
with a pressurized (supercharged) hydraulic fluid inlet to provide fluid
flow. The supercharge pump draws hydraulic fluid from the reservoir and
forces it through a heat exchanger and a low-pressure filter. Fluid not
required by the main pumps returns to the reservoir through check valves
in the low-pressure filter manifold. The supercharge pump is mounted
vertically inside the reservoir.
Filters
Hydraulic fluid from the low-pressure filter is routed to the main pumps.
A low-inlet pressure switch monitors the inlet pressure (supercharge
output pressure) to the main pumps.
Fluid from the main pumps outlet passes through a check valve and a 10micron high-pressure filter. The output pressure is controlled by the
pressure compensator adjustment on the main pumps and is monitored by
the output pressure gage. Output volume varies automatically with
external circuit demand.
Back-up relief valve
An adjustable back-up relief valve limits output pressure by porting fluid
back to the reservoir. When the pump compensators are operating
normally, the relief valve does not open.
High/low solenoid
valves
High/low pressure operation is controlled by the high/low solenoid
valves. These valves control the main pressure control (pressure
compensator) vent ports and the backup relief valve vent port.
With the high/low solenoid valves de-energized, the main pressure
control vent ports and the back-up relief valve vent port are open and
output volume is ported to the reservoir, limiting output pressure to
approximately 150 psi (1.03 MPa). This low-pressure condition occurs
during supply turn-on for low pressure start-up and during power-up of
the HPU.
With the high/low solenoid valve energized, the vent ports are blocked
and system pressure can rise to the preset operating pressure, typically
3000 psi (21 MPa).
Fluid temperature
Hydraulic fluid temperature is maintained at a recommended operating
level by a fluid-to-water heat exchanger which passes the fluid over waterfilled tubes. Water flow through the tubes is automatically regulated by a
water regulating valve. If fluid temperature exceeds a preset limit
(typically 140°F), a temperature-sensitive switch turns the HPU off.
Pump protection
Pump protection is provided for the main pumps by the main pump lowinlet pressure switch that turns the supply off if supercharge pressure
drops below the recommended operating pressure. The supercharge
pump and main pumps are protected by a fluid-level switch which turns
the supply off if the level of hydraulic fluid in the reservoir drops below a
preset level.
Theory of Operation
5-2
Pressure
accumulation
The pump-outlet pressure accumulator smoothes the HPU output and
provides additional hydraulic pressure for high instantaneous flow
demands. It is precharged with dry nitrogen to a pressure proportional to
HPU output pressure. The optional slow turn-on accumulator slows the
rate at which the backup relief valve shifts from low to high pressure. The
precharge must be adjusted proportionally to the HPU output pressure. If
it is above or below the recommended level, the effect of the accumulator
is reduced.
24 Vdc operation
The HPU includes a 24 Vdc electrical power supply for operating
solenoid valves, relays and the PLC. Current available for external use is
listed in the specifications table. All solenoid valves connected to this
supply must be rated at 24 Vdc. If the 115 Vac control voltage option is
required, all solenoid valves connected to the supply must also be rated at
115 Vac.
5.2 Electrical Operation
This section provides the HPU electrical theory of the operation. Figure 52 is a typical electrical schematic for the 506.82B/.92B HPU.
HPU operation is controlled by a PLC (programmable logic controller). It
is designed so that a desired circuit in relay ladder logic can be
programmed. The PLC provides logic functions previously accomplished
by relays, timers and sequencers. It contains an I/O section that receives
input data from various switches and contacts that are hardwired to the
input terminals. The PLC sends output commands to motors, motor
starters, solenoid valves and indicator lights that are hardwired to the
output terminals. The PLC operating program is retained by an EPROM
memory module. A back-up battery is not required.
Theory of Operation
5-3
5.2.1
Control
When the disconnect switch is closed, the HPU control panel Power On
indicator lights to show that electrical power to the HPU is on.
Inlet pressure
Pressing Start with Pump 1 Select , Pump 2 Select , or both pumps selected
energizes relay CR5 at PLC output 15 to start the supercharge motor.
Contacts M5 provide the supercharge motor status to PLC input 13. The
supercharge motor provides inlet pressure for pumps 1 and 2. When the
inlet pressure is reached (typically 30 psi), pressure switch 1PS (connected
from the outlet of the supercharge pump to PLC input 20) closes which
allows the PLC to start the pump motor(s).
Supercharge only
operation
Pressing Start without Pump 1 Select or Pump 2 Select selected energizes
relay CR5 at PLC output 15 to start the supercharge pump motor. Contacts
M5 provide the supercharge pump motor status to PLC input 13. The
supercharge pump provides inlet pressure for pumps 1 and 2.
Supercharge pump only operation is typically used to hasten hydraulic
fluid cooling after a fluid over-temperature shutdown of the HPU. Refer
to Subsection 2.3 for a fluid cooling procedure using the supercharge
pump.
Start control
The start signal is sent to input 2 of the PLC. If various conditions (such as
interlocks) are satisfied, a pump unit start up is initiated. Depending on
which pump is selected, PLC output 0 energizes pump motor 1 start
control relay (CR1) or PLC output 2 energizes pump motor 2 start control
relay (CR3).
Pump motor 1
When CR1 contacts close, pump motor 1 starts, using a Wye-delta start.
First relay S1 energizes to close S1 contacts and energize relay M1 (M1
contacts close). Relays M1 and S1 provide a Wye connection (this reduces
inrush current) to start pump motor 1. After a timing delay that the PLC
provides, PLC output 1 energizes relay CR2. The state of all CR2 contacts
change to de-energize S1 and energize M2. Relays M1 and M2 connect the
motor windings in a delta configuration to provide full current to the
motor. A set of M2 contacts provides the motor 1 status to the PLC at
input 14.
Pump motor 2
If pump motor 2 is selected, PLC output 2 energizes relay CR3. Pump
motor 2 uses a Wye-delta start configuration. Relays M3 and S2 provide
the start connection to the motor. Relays M3 and M4 provide the run
connection. A set of M4 contacts provides the motor 2 status to the PLC at
input 15.
High pressure
When the HPU High Pressure switch is pressed with a pump unit
activated, high pressure is enabled by energizing high-pressure solenoid
SOL1 for pump 1, SOL2 for pump 2, and SOL3 for the HPU.
Theory of Operation

When the stop switch at PLC input 3 is pressed, the two pump motors are
shut down after a one second delay. The supercharge pump motor,
however, continues to run for approximately five seconds.
Stop control
Pressing Emergency Stop turns off the HPU by de-energizing relay CRM.
CRM contacts open to cut off power to the motor starters. The
supercharge pump may continue to run briefly while the main pumps
wind down.
5.2.2
Interlocks
The HPU contains interlock circuitry to shut down the HPU when
various conditions occur—such as low level hydraulic fluid, overtemperature, low pressure, dirty filters and motor overload.
Reset
When the interlock condition has been corrected and the HPU is restarted,
the Reset switch at PLC input 8 must be pressed to reset the interlock
circuitry.
Low-level hydraulic
fluid
Low fluid level switch FS1 protects the HPU if there is an appreciable loss
of hydraulic fluid. Whenever the level of hydraulic fluid in the HPU
reservoir drops below a preset limit, switch FS1 (at PLC input 19) opens to
turn off all pump motors, and disable the supercharge pump. PLC output
100 will go low to signal the low fluid fault through the remote
connector. PLC output 9 lights the Low Oil Level indicator on the HPU
front panel.
Fluid overtemperature
condition
Whenever the temperature of the hydraulic fluid in the HPU reservoir
exceeds a preset limit, switch TAS1 (at PLC input 22) opens to turn off the
HPU pump motors. PLC output 101 will go low to signal the overtemperature fault through the remote connector. PLC output 8 lights the
Fluid Over-Temperature indicator on the HPU front panel.
The supercharge pump can be operated to cool the fluid. Refer
Subsection 2.3 for a fluid cooling procedure.
Low-inlet pressure
Pressure switch PS1 protects the main pumps if inlet pressure drops below
the minimum level required by the main pumps. Switch PS1 (at PLC input
20) closes whenever low-inlet pressure drops below a preset limit
(typically 30 psi). Opening PS1 while the pump motor is operating, turns
off the HPU.
Optional water
shut-off
solenoid valve
On units equipped with this valve, switch TAS2 (at PLC input 23) opens to
energize the water-inlet solenoid SOL4 (at PLC output 7) whenever the
hydraulic fluid exceeds a preset temperature limit. This solenoid opens the
water shut-off valve, letting water flow through the heat exchanger to
cool the hydraulic fluid.
Dirty filter
The low-pressure fine filter is monitored by ∆P switch PS2 (at PLC input
21). When a dirty filter creates excessive differential pressure across the
filter, switch PS2 opens. PLC output 102 generates the dirty filter warning
through the remote connector. PLC output 11 lights the Dirty Filter
indicator on the HPU front panel. If the indicator is active when the HPU
shuts down, Reset must be pressed (after the filter is replaced) to restart the
HPU.
Theory of Operation
5-5
Motor overload
Thermal overload sensors detect excessive current and open the normally
closed contacts connected to the motor starter coil.
Motor overload relay contacts OL1, OL3, or OL5, all at PLC input 12,
open to turn off the HPU if the respective pump motor 1, pump motor 2,
or supercharge pump motor is drawing excessive current. The LED lights
from PLC output 10
When an overload condition occurs, the reset button on the motor
overload relay must be pressed (see Subsection 3.3.1).
NOTE
Hydraulic power supplies are often customized for specific
applications. Actual wiring may differ from what is shown
in Figure 5-2.
You will find the wiring schematic for your system in the
product information kit inside the starter box and in the
Assembly Drawings manuals specific to your system.
