Product Description:
The EEA-PAM-581-C-33 is a plug-in power amplifier card produced by Vickers and organized within the EEA-PAM-5**-C-32 Power Amplifiers series. Installed in hydraulic valve drivers, it converts low-level command voltages into controlled solenoid current so proportional valves can meter flow or pressure with repeatable accuracy in industrial automation systems.
The command input accepts current signals across a resistance of 100 Ω, while a separate voltage path is buffered by 47 kΩ input impedance to suit PLC or motion controller outputs. An enable channel registers logic high once the level exceeds 9.8 VDC, and the same threshold applies to the independent ramp enable input for timed acceleration or deceleration. Normal operation is supported by a nominal board supply of 24 VDC; if that rail drops to 18 VDC the amplifier shuts down to protect the valve. Internal circuitry also furnishes a ±15 V reference (50 mA maximum) for external sensors, and reverse-polarity protection prevents damage if the supply wiring is crossed.
With a baseline input command of zero, the card draws 1.7 A so the valve spool remains centered, and it can produce a feedback monitor of ±10 V that tracks full spool stroke for diagnostics. The output stage delivers up to 3.2 A to the solenoid winding, a figure matched to most NG06 and NG10 proportional valves. Total board dissipation is rated at 50 W, so cabinet ventilation must remove that heat along with dynamic valve losses. Duplicate 22 kΩ resistances on the enable and ramp circuits simplify wiring, and onboard LEDs give quick visual confirmation of power and status.
