Characteristics of Valve Driver
The integral electronic driver combines all func-
tions for optimal operation of the valve. Thanks
to its excellent dynamic the valve is deployable
within closed loop control applications. The most
important features are:
• high dynamic actuator with specially designed
electronic driver
• closed loop controlled spool position
• constant current actuator control with overcur-
rent shutoff
• excellent properties for response sensitivity and
temperature drift
• differential input stage with various command
signal options
• diagnostic output for spool stroke / overcurrent
state
• meets relevant European EMC-standards

2. Safety Instructions
Please read the operation manual before installa-
tion, start-up, service, repair or stocking! Disregard
may result in damaging the valve or incorporated
system parts.
Symbols
This manual uses symbols which have to be fol-
lowed accordingly:
Instructions with regard to the warranty
Instructions with regard to possible dam-
aging of the valve or linked system com-
ponents
Helpful additional instructions
Service
Workings in the area of installation, commissioning,
maintenance and repair of the valve may only be
allowed by qualified personnel.These are persons
which have, because of education, experience and
instruction, sufficient knowledge on relevant direc-
tives and approved technical rules.
3. Important Details
Intended Usage
This operation manual is valid for proportional
directional control valves DFplus series. Any dif-
ferent or unintended usage is to be considered
as not intended. The manufacturer is not liable for
warranty claims resulting from this.
Common Instructions
Parker reserves the right for technical modifications
of the described product. Illustrations and drawings
within this manual are simplified representations.
Due to improvement or modification of the product
the illustrations might not match precisely with the
described valve. The technical specifications and
dimensions are not binding. No claims can be
derived of it. Copyrights are reserved.
Liability
Parker does not assume liability for damage due
to the following failures:
• incorrect mounting / installation
• improper handling
• lack of maintenance
• unintended usage
Do not disassemble the valve! In case of
suspicion for a defect please contact Parker.
Storage
In case of temporary storage the valve must be
protected against contamination, atmospheric ex-
posure and mechanical damages. Each valve has
been factory tested with hydraulic oil, resulting in
protection of the internal parts against corrosion.Yet
this protection is only ensured under the following
conditions:
Outdoor storage or within sea and tropical
climate will lead to corrosion and might disable
the valve!
Storage
period Storage requirements
12 months constant humidity < 60 % as well
as constant temperature < 25 °C
6 months varying humidity as well as
varying temperature < 35 °C

4. Mounting / Installation
Scope of Supply
Please check immediately after receiving the valve,
if the content is matching with the specified scope
of supply. The delivery includes:
• valve
• operation manual
The central connector has to be ordered separately
and is not included in the delivery.
Please check the delivery immediately after
receiving the shipment for apparent dam-
ages due to shipping. Report shipment
losses at once to the carrier and the supplier!
Mounting
• Compare valve type (located on the name plate)
with bill of materials respectively circuit diagram.
• The valve may be mounted fix or movable in
any direction.
• Check mounting surface for the valve. Uneve-
ness of 0.01 mm/100 mm, surface finish of 6.3
µm are tolerable values.
Keep valve mounting surface and work envi-
ronment clean!
• Remove protection plate from the valve mounting
surface
• Check the proper position of the valve ports and
the O-rings.
• Mounting bolts:
D1FE/D1FP: 4 pcs. M5x30
D3FP/D30FP: 4 pcs. M6x40
use property class ISO 4762-12.9
• Bolt kits:
D1FE/D1FP: BK375
D3FE/D3FP/D30FP: BK385
• Tighten the bolts crisscross with the following
torque values:
D1FE/D1FP: 7.6 Nm
D3FE/D3FP/D30FP: 13.2 Nm
Insufficient condition of the valve mounting
surface might create malfunction!
Incorrect mounting resp. bolt torque may
result in abrupt leakage of pressure fluid on
the valve ports.
Limits of Use
The valve may be operated within the determined
limits only. Please refer to the “technical data“ sec-
tion as well as to the “characteristic curves“ in the
Parker catalogue HY11-3500/UK“HydraulicValves
Industrial Standard”.
Follow the environmental conditions! Unal-
lowable temperatures, shock load, aggresive
chemicals exposure, radiation exposure, il-
legal electromagnetic emissions may result
in operating trouble and may lead to failure!
Follow the operating limits listed in the
“specifications“ table!
Pressure Fluids
The following rules applies for the operation with
various pressure fluids:
This above information serves for orientation
and does not substitute user tests among the
particular operating conditions. In particular,
no liability for media compatibility may be
derived out of it.
Mineral oil: usable without restriction.
HFC: choose the right seal option.
For operation with the following pressure fluids
please consult Parker:
For detailed information concerning pressure
fluids note VDMA-document 24317 as well
as DIN 51524 & 51502.
Special gaskets may be available depending on
the utilized fluid.
In case of doubt please consult Parker.
