BD Series Hydrostatic Transmissions

General Description

BD Series Family
The BD hydrostatic transmission can be applied for the transfer and control of power. It provides an
infinitely variable speed range between zero and maximum in both forward and reverse modes of
operation.
The BDU transmission is a “ Z” style transmission with a variable displacement pump and a fixed
displacement motor. The variable displacement pump features a cradle swashplate with a direct
proportional displacement control. Reversing the direction of tilt of the swashplate reverses the flow of
oil from the pump and thus reverses the direction of the motor output rotation. The fixed displacement
motor uses a fixed swashplate. The pump and motor are of the axial piston design and utilize
sphericalnosed pistons which are held against a thrust bearing by internal compression springs. The fluid
supply for the BDU-10L/21L/21H transmission is contained in an external reservoir and passes through
an external filter prior to entering the transmission and feeding the fixed displacement gerotor charge
pump. Excess fluid in the charge circuit is discharged over the charge relief valve back to the charge
pump inlet. Constant flow across a small fixed orifice connecting the charge circuit to the transmission
housing supplements the cooling flow.
The BDU-06S/10S transmission has a self-contained fluid supply and an integral filter. The fluid is forced
through the filter by positive “head” on the fluid in the housing reservoir with an assist by the negative
pressure created in the pump pistons as they create a vacuum. Charge check valves in the center section
are used to control the makeup flow of fluid to the low pressure side of the loop. A spool type bypass
valve is utilized in the transmission to permit moving the vehicle over short distances at low speeds
without starting the engine.
The BDP-10L is a variable displacement pump to utilize the pump kit of the BDU-10L transmission and
designed for vehicle application which is for propel or for auxiliary functions where the system pressure
requirements and design life can be met within pump rating.

Operating Parameters

Overview
Maintain operating parameters within prescribed limits during all operating conditions. This section
defines operating limits given in the table Operating Parameters.

Input Speed
Minimum speed is the lowest input speed recommended during engine idle condition. Operating below
minimum speed limits pump’s ability to maintain adequate flow for lubrication and power transmission.
Rated speed is the highest input speed recommended at full power condition. Operating at or below
this speed should yield satisfactory product life.
Maximum speed is the highest operating speed permitted. Exceeding maximum speed reduces product
life and can cause loss of hydrostatic power and braking capacity. Never exceed the maximum speed
limit under any operating conditions.
Operating conditions between rated speed and maximum speed should be restricted to less than full
power and to limited periods of time. For most drive systems, maximum unit speed occurs during
downhill braking or negative power conditions.

W Warning

Unintended vehicle or machine movement hazard.


Exceeding maximum speed may cause a loss of hydrostatic drive line power and braking capacity. You
must provide a braking system, redundant to the hydrostatic transmission, sufficient to stop and hold the
vehicle or machine in the event of hydrostatic drive power loss.

System Pressure
System pressure is the differential pressure between system ports A & B. It is the dominant operating
variable affecting hydraulic unit life. High system pressure, which results from high load, reduces
expected life. Hydraulic unit life depends on speed and normal operating—or weighted average—
pressure that you can only determine from a duty cycle analysis.
Maximum Working Pressure is the highest recommended Application pressure. Maximum working
pressure is not intended to be a continuous pressure. Propel systems with Application pressures at, or
below, this pressure should yield satisfactory unit life given proper component sizing.
Maximum pressure (peak) is the highest intermittent pressure allowed under any circumstances.
Applications with applied pressures between rated and maximum require factory approval with
complete application, duty cycle, and life expectancy analysis.

All pressure limits are differential pressures referenced to low loop (charge) pressure. Subtract low loop
pressure from gauge readings to compute the differential.

Charge Pressure
The charge pressure setting listed in the technical specifications is based on the charge flow across the
charge pressure relief valve at fluid temperature at 50˚C [120˚F].

Charge Inlet Pressure


Charge pump inlet conditions must be controlled in order to achieve expected life and performance. A
continuous inlet vacuum of no less than 0.8 abs bar is recommended. Normal vacuums less than 0.7 abs
bar would indicate inadequate inlet design or stricted filter.

Technical Information
BD Series Hydrostatic Transmissions

Operating Parameters

Case Pressure
Under normal operating conditions, the maximum continuous case pressure must not exceed 0.3 bar
(4PSI). Maximum allowable intermittent case pressure during cold start must not exceed 0.7 bar (10PSI).

C Caution

Possible component damage or leakage


Operation with case pressure in excess of stated limits may damage seals, gaskets, and/or housings,
causing external leakage. This condition may also affect performance since charge and system pressure
are referenced to case pressure.

Hydraulic Fluids
Ratings and performance data are based on operating with hydraulic fluids containing oxidation, rust
and foam inhibitors. These fluids must possess good thermal and hydrolytic stability to prevent wear,
erosion, and corrosion of motor components.

The following hydraulic fluids are suitable:


Hydraulic fluid type Standard, name/type Note
Hydraulic Oil ISO 11 158 – HM seal compatibility and vane pump wear resistance
per DIN 51 524-2 must be met
ISO 11 158 - HV seal compatibility and vane pump wear resistance
per DIN 51 524-3 must be met
DIN 51 524-2 - HLP
DIN 51 524-3 - HVLP
Engine oil API Classification SL, SJ for gasoline engines
CI-4, CH-4, CG-4, CF-4 and CF for diesel engines

Temperature and Viscosity


Temperature and viscosity requirements must be concurrently satisfied. The data shown in the table Fluid
Specifications on page 12, assume petroleum-based fluids are used.
The high temperature limits apply at the hottest point in the transmission, which is normally the motor
case drain. The system should generally be run at or below the rated temperature. The maximum
temperature is based on material properties and should never be exceeded.
Cold oil will generally not affect the durability of the transmission components, but it may affect the
ability of oil to flow and transmit power; therefore temperatures should remain 16 °C [30 °F] above the
pour point of the hydraulic fluid. The minimum temperature relates to the physical properties of
component materials.
For maximum unit efficiency and bearing life the fluid viscosity should remain in the recommended
operating range. The minimum viscosity should be encountered only during brief occasions of
maximum ambient temperature and severe duty cycle operation. The maximum viscosity should be
encountered only at cold start.
Heat exchangers should be sized to keep the fluid within these limits. Testing to verify that these
temperature limits are not exceeded is recommended.

System Design Parameters

Fluid and Filtration


To prevent premature wear, it is imperative that only clean fluid enters the hydrostatic transmission
circuit. Therefore an inlet filter better than β20=1.4 is required in the charge pump inlet line. This filter
should not have a bypass and should be changed regularly to ensure system reliability. The BD series
hydrostatic transmission requires system filtration capable of maintaining fluid cleanliness at ISO
4406-1999 class 22/18/15 or better.

Reservoir
The BDU-06S and BDU-10S are designed with optional integrated reservoir. A reservoir for BDU-10L and
BDP-10L larger than the 2 liter tank size is recommended. A reservoir for BDU-21L/H larger than the 5 liter
tank size is recommended. The hoses or piping size is recommended to be larger than 3/8 inch normal
tube OD.

Control Shaft Force


The BDU transmission is designed with direct displacement control (DDC). DDC can be located at either
side of the housing. It provides a simple, positive method of control. Movement of the control shaft
causes a proportional swashplate movement, thus varying the pump’s displacement from full
displacement in one direction to full displacement in the opposite direction.
The approximate maximum control torque necessary to rotate the control shaft is shown in the table of
technical specifications. A stopper to prevent over-stroke is required at the end of maximum angle of
control shaft. The control shaft force should be kept at or below the force in the table below.

Independent Braking System


Vehicle propel applications may require a provision for non-linear control input to reduce control
sensitivity near neutral. Damping or frictional forces may be necessary to produce the desired control
feeling.
These units do not include any neutral centering device for the swashplate. It is necessary to provide a
force in the machine’s control system that will hold the swashplate at the desired angle. A “ fail safe
“ which will return the swashplate to the neutral in the event of linkage failure is recommended.

W Warning

Unintended vehicle or machine movement hazard.


The loss of hydrostatic drive line power, in any mode of operation (forward, neutral, or reverse) may cause
the system to lose hydrostatic braking capacity. You must provide a braking system, redundant to the
hydrostatic transmission, sufficient to stop and hold the vehicle or machine in the event of hydrostatic
drive power loss.

Bypass Valve
In some applications, it is desirable to move the vehicle over short distances at low speed without
starting the engine. A bypass valve allows oil to be routed from one side of the pump/motor circuit to the
other, thus allowing the motor to turn. The bypass valve must be fully closed during normal vehicle
operation. BDU series transmissions utilize a spool-type bypass valve. The bypass valve plunger must be
depressed manually to open the valve. This connects both sides of the main hydraulic circuit to the
housing case and allows fluid to circulate without rotating the pump, prime mover and motor. A spring
closes this valve on the 6S, 10L and 10S transmissions, while charge pressure closes the valve on the 21L
and 21H transmissions. The BDP-10L pump utilizes a screw-type bypass valve.

High Pressure Relief Valve (hprv) and Charge Check (Overpressure Protection)
The BDU-21H transmission is available with a combination charge check and high pressure relief valve
assembly. High pressure relief valves are available in a range of settings as shown in the Model Code on
page 29. Individual port pressure settings may be specified. The high pressure relief valve settings are a
differential pressure (referenced to charge pressure).

Charge Check Valve with Orifice


The BDU transmissions are equipped with charge check valves. In some applications, it is desirable to use
charge check valve with orifice for expanding null dead band, giving both the safety measure to prevent
the vehicle movement in the neutral position of the control shaft and easy adjustment of neutral position
when connected to vehicle linkage. The orifice connects the working loop, which is a main hydraulic
circuit, to a charge circuit. It always allows some internal leakage to ensure the expanding null dead band
around neutral position of control shaft. However, it decreases the volumetric efficiency, particularly at
high system pressure in the working loop. It is recommended to install the orifice in a specific working
loop, which is pressurized when the vehicle moves in reverse. The orifice diameter improves the null
dead band but decreases the volumetric efficiency. A cross section and characteristics are shown below.
The charge check valves with orifice are available in a range of orifice diameters as shown in the Model
Code on page 29.

Component Selection

Selecting the proper transmission for a vehicle begins with determining the maximum system pressure
by using tractive effort of the vehicle and the maximum vehicle speed required. The transmission
selected must meet both requirements.

Maximum System Pressure


Maximum operating system pressure should be calculated at maximum tractive effort condition.
Maximum tractive effort condition is assumed at vehicle with maximum weight transfer from pushing or
pulling implements at maximum grade of slope. First, calculate BDU motor torque by using the following
equation:
Equation-1

• MTQ_ME = Output torque of BDU motor at maximum tractive effort condition in Nm


• PR_ME = Pull Ratio at maximum tractive effort (See below)
• VW_ML = Gross vehicle weight with maximum loaded weight in kgf
• LR = Tire Radius in meters
• FDR = Transaxle Final Drive Ratio
• EFF_FD = Transaxle Final Drive Efficiency

The hydrostatic transmissions in many applications are used in conjunction with readily available
transaxles. In order to meet both requirements of high output torque at operating mode and high speed
at traveling mode, the transaxles with two kinds of shifts, Hi and Lo are used in some applications. In such
transaxles, use Lo shift ratio as FDR in equation-1 and -4 to calculate maximum system pressure.
A useful parameter for determining tractive effort is "Pull Ratio". Pull Ratio is a dimensionless term that is
the ratio of tractive effort to gross vehicle weight. It is generally constant for each class of vehicle. These
values may be used when actual vehicle tractive efforts are not known. In a typical agriculture application
for BDU application, Pull Ratio for the highest load mode can be calculated from the primary components
of pull ratio: rolling resistance, grade motion resistance by a function of slope, machine function motion
resistance and drive configuration motion resistance. In such cases, pull ratio is determined by using the
following equation:
Equation-2

• RR = Rolling resistance. See SD Application manual


• GR = Motion resistance of Grade. See SD Application manual
• MF = Machine function motion resistance, See SD Application manual
• DC = Drive configuration motion resistance, See SD Application manual

Then, maximum system pressure can be calculated by using MTQ_ME and the following quation:
Equation-3

• SPR_ME = Maximum BDU system pressure operated at Maximum tractive effort mode in bar
• DP = Motor Displacement of selected BDU transmissions in cm3
• MEF_MO = Motor Mechanical Efficiency of BDU transmission in this mode

Select appropriate BDU size which will give SPR_ME, not to exceed the value of maximum system
pressure allowed in the technical specification, because BDU is generally applied without system
pressure relief valves.

Technical Information
BD Series Hydrostatic Transmissions

Component Selection

If appropriate BDU size satisfies maximum system pressure, determine the BDU output speed at
maximum tractive effort mode by using the following equation:
Equation-4

• MSP_ME = The BDU output speed at maximum tractive effort condition in min-1 (rpm)
• VSP_ME = The vehicle speed requested for maximum tractive effort mode in m/s

Confirm the BDU output speed calculated to satisfy the maximum output speed (intermittent) in the
technical specification.

Input Power
Calculate required input power of BDU by using the following equation:
Equation-5

• PW_ME = BDU Input power required for maximum tractive effort mode in kW
• OEF_BDU = BDU unit overall efficiency for this mode

If PW_ME is larger than Input power (Maximum) of selected BDU, VSP_ME should be limited to satisfy
maximum BDU input power. If the calculated speed exceeds the technical specification, the transaxle
final drive ratio or tire size may need to be changed.
Maximum vehicle speed is generally recommended in traveling mode. Calculate maximum BDU speed by
using the following equation:
Equation-6

• MSP_TR = The BDU output speed for traveling mode in min-1 (rpm)
• VSP_TR = The vehicle speed requested for traveling mode in m/s

Use Hi shift ratio as FDR in Equation-6 if the Transaxle Final Drive has two shifts.
Confirm MSP_TR to satisfy the maximum output speed (intermittent) in the technical specification. If
MSP_TR is not satisfied, FDR (Hi shift) may need to be changed. It is also necessary to determine the
system pressure for traveling mode (SPR_TR) to satisfy maximum system pressure (intermittent) allowed
in the technical specification. SPR_TR is calculated by using equation -1, -2 and -3 with parameters of
traveling mode.
Calculate the required BDU input shaft speed to satisfy maximum BDU output shaft speed by using the
following equation:
Equation-7

• PSP_RIN = required BDU input shaft speed in min-1 (rpm)


• VEF_BDU = BDU volumetric efficiency for this mode

Confirm BDU input shaft speed is larger than PSP_RIN.

BD Series Hydrostatic Transmissions

Component Selection

Unit Life
The unit life of selected BDU transmissions should be determined by using average system pressure
under overall operating modes, because vehicles generally operate in their maximum tractive effort
mode for a small percentage of their life. If a duty cycle for a transmission is known, weighted average
system pressure can be calculated and can estimate the life expectancy of the transmission selected. The
duty cycle can be assumed for instances including several modes. Calculate weighted average system
pressure by using the following equation:
Equation-8

• SPR_AV = weighted average system pressure. This is the mean pressure of the duty cycle in bar
• SPR_ME = the system pressure for maximum tractive effort mode and T_ME is its time in the duty
cycle
• SPR_NE = the system pressure at the normal tractive effort which means with normal weight and at
0% Grade and T_NE is its time in the duty cycle
• SPR_TR = the system pressure for traveling mode and T_TR is its time in the duty cycle

If needed, define other system pressures at other operating conditions and add them to the equation.
The BDU Unit Life hours at weighted average pressure is determined by using the following equation:
Equation-9

• LH = Unit Life hours of selected BDU at the duty cycle estimated


• SPR_RH = The system pressure at Rated Unit Life (See table A)
• PSP_IN = The input shaft speed of BDU unit. Normally, input shaft speed of BDU is constant

Confirm LH of selected BDU to satisfy the Life requirement. If LH is shorter than the requested
specification, the next larger size transmission may be needed and the repeat the calculation for
Component Selection on other BDU using Equation -1 through -9. Contact Danfoss for assistance in
correct transmission selection.

Recommended Installation and Maintenance

Housing Installation
The center section of BDU transmission has 4 holes for fixing screws. The screws should be inserted in the
holes and tightened to specifications.
*Fitting Torque 1569 ~ 2058 N·cm

Shaft Installation
The input shaft of the BDU transmission should be connected to the prime mover by a belt drive device,
sheave or coupling. When using a belt drive device, the radial load on the input shaft should not exceed
the maximum allowable load shown in Shaft Load on page 18.
When installing the BDU motor shaft to the gearbox or to other devices directly, utilize the groove on the
center section of the BDU transmission, which is located concentric to the motor shaft, to ensure the
accuracy of concentricity. When using the coupling for connection of the shaft, ensure the accuracy of
concentricity is kept in the region of ±0.025mm. Do not beat the coupling strongly into the shaft with a
hammer.
It is recommended the shaft to be lubricated when using a spline shaft.

Start Up Procedure
After installing the BDU transmission and corresponding pipeline connection, remove the case drain port
plug from the housing. Fill the BDU transmission case with the recommended oil through the drain port.
BDU-10S is filled with oil at the plant shipment.
Make sure the control shaft of the BDU transmission is set to the neutral position. The BDU transmission
pump must be at zero position. Depress the bypass valve plunger manually to connect both side of the
main hydraulic circuit to housing case. Allow the prime mover to turn at idling speed. Turn the control
shaft and oil fills into main circuits. Stop depressing the bypass valve plunger. Then, the output shaft will
start to turn. Check the oil tank or reservoir level and refill the oil to the proper level if necessary. Repeat
the control shaft movement from full displacement in one direction to full displacement in the opposite
direction. Oil should not contain air trapped in the oil during the initial operation.

Operation
Check all joints and connections for leaks, and check that the oil tank or reservoir level is proper at the
time of first operation and every day.
Start the prime mover turning in the neutral position of the control shaft of the BDU transmission.

Maintenance
