General Description
Basic Design
S42 Integrated Tandem Pumps (4T) are advanced hydrostatic units for medium power applications with
maximum loads of 415 Bar [6020 psi] (41 cm3) and 350 Bar [5075 psi] (51 cm3). You can combine these
pumps with a suitable Danfoss motor or other products in a system to transfer and control hydraulic
power.
The 4T axial piston pump is a compact, high power density unit, using the parallel axial piston/slipper
concept in conjunction with tiltable swashplates to vary the pumps’ displacements.
Reversing the angle of the swashplate reverses the flow of fluid from the pump, and reversing the
direction of rotation of the motor output. 4T axial piston pumps provide an infinitely variable speed
range between zero and maximum in both forward and reverse.
4T axial piston pumps use a cradle swashplate design with a hydraulic servo control cylinder. Control is
provided through a compact servo control system. Two types of servo controls are available. These
include mechanical hydraulic actuated feedback controls, and hydraulic proportional control. These
controls feature low hysteresis and responsive performance.

The illustration above shows a schematic of a 4T axial piston pump. System ports A, C and B, D connect to
the high pressure work lines. Return fluid is received from its inlet port and discharged through the outlet
port. Flow direction is determined by swashplate position. You can read system port pressure through
ports M1 and M2. The pump has two case drains (L1 and L2) to ensure there is lubricating fluid in the
system. This schematic includes a manual displacement control. For other control schematics see the

System Requirements
Independent braking system
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.
Reservoir
Design the system to accommodate maximum volume changes during all system operating modes and
to promote de-aeration of the fluid as it passes through the tank. Minimum reservoir volume is 5/8 of the
maximum charge pump flow per minute with a minimum fluid volume equal to 1/2 of the maximum
charge pump flow per minute. At the maximum return flow, this allows 30 seconds fluid dwell for
removing entrained air. This is adequate for a closed reservoir (no breather) in most applications. Position
the reservoir outlet (pump inlet) above the bottom of the reservoir to take advantage of gravity
separation and prevent large foreign particles from entering the charge inlet line. Use a 100 - 125 μm
screen over the outlet port. Position the reservoir inlet (fluid return) so that flow to the reservoir is
discharged below the normal fluid level, and directed into the interior of the reservoir for maximum dwell
and efficient de-aeration. Use a baffle (or baffles) between the inlet and outlet ports to promote de-
aeration and reduce surging of the fluid.
System Parameters
Speed limits
Rated speed is the speed limit we recommend at full power condition and is the highest value at which
you can expect normal life. Maximum speed is the highest operating speed we permit. You cannot
operate above this speed without risk of immediate failure and loss of drive line power and hydrostatic
braking capacity (which may create a hazard). In mobile applications, you must apply this pump with a
speed speed below the stated maximum. Consult Pressure and Speed Limits, BLN-9884, when determining
speed limits for a particular application.
Inlet pressure
Control charge pump inlet conditions to achieve expected life and performance. Ensure a continuous
inlet pressure of not less than 0.8 bar absolute (not more than 6 in Hg vacuum). Normal pressures less
than 0.7 bar absolute (greater than 9 in Hg vacuum) indicate inadequate inlet design or a restricted filter.
Pressures less than 0.7 bar absolute (greater than 9 in Hg vac) during cold start are possible, but should
improve quickly as the fluid warms. Never exceed the maximum inlet vacuum.
Theoretical output
The theoretical maximum flow at rated speed is a simple function of pump displacement and speed. This
is a good gauge for sizing a companion motor. This does not take into account losses due to leakage or
variations in displacement.
Case pressure
Under normal operating conditions, the rated case pressure must not be exceeded. During cold start
case pressure must be kept below maximum intermittent case pressure. Size drain plumbing accordingly.

System pressure
System pressure is the differential pressure between high pressure system ports. 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 the speed and normal operating, or weighted
average, pressure that can only be determined from a duty cycle analysis.
Application pressure - is the high pressure relief or pressure limiter setting normally defined within the
order code of the pump. This is the applied system pressure at which the driveline generates the
maximum calculated pull or torque in the application. 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 is the highest allowable Application pressure under any circumstance. Application
pressures above Maximum Working Pressure will only be considered with duty cycle analysis and factory
approval.
Minimum pressure must be maintained under all operating conditions to avoid cavitation.
W Warning
All pressure limits are differential pressures referenced to low loop (charge) pressure. Subtract low loop
pressure from gauge readings to compute the differential.
Hydraulic Fluid Parameters
Hydraulic fluid
Ratings and data are based on operating with hydraulic fluids containing inhibitors to prevent oxidation,
rust, and foam. These fluids must possess good thermal and hydrolytic stability to prevent wear, erosion,
and corrosion of the internal components. Fire resistant fluids are also suitable at modified operating
conditions. Please see Danfoss publication Hydraulic Fluids and Lubricants, 520L0463 Technical
Information for more information.
Premium grade antiwear hydraulic fluids are recommended for the satisfactory performance.
Do not mix different types of hydraulic fluids. Contact your Danfoss representative for more information
on fluid selection. The following hydraulic fluids are suitable:
• Hydraulic Oil ISO 11 158 - HM (Seal compatibility and vane pump wear resistance per DIN 51 524-2
must be met)
• Hydraulic Oil ISO 11 158 - HV (Seal compatibility and vane pump wear resistance per DIN 51 524-3
must be met)
• Hydraulic Oil DIN 51 524-2 - HLP
• Hydraulic Oil DIN 51 524-3 - HVLP
• Automatic Transmission Fluid ATF A Suffix A (GM)
• Automatic Transmission Fluid Dexron II (GM), which meets Allison C-3 and Caterpillar TO-2 test
• Automatic Transmission Fluid M2C33F and G (Ford)
• Engine oils API Classification SL, SJ (for gasoline engines) and CI-4, CH-4, CG-4, CF-4 and CF (for diesel
engines)
• Super Tractor Oil Universal (STOU) special agricultural tractor fluid
Temperature and viscosity

Ensure the application satisfies temperature and viscosity requirements concurrently. The data shown in
the tables on Hydraulic Fluid Parameters on page 9, assume petroleum-based fluids.
High temperature limits apply at the hottest point in the transmission, which is normally the case drain.
Always run the pump at or below the continuous temperature. Never exceed maximum temperature.

Durability of transmission components is not affected by cold oil, but it may affect the ability of oil to flow
and transmit power. Keep temperatures 16 °C [30 °F] above the pour point of the hydraulic fluid. The
minimum temperature relates to physical properties of component materials.
For maximum unit efficiency and bearing life, keep fluid viscosity in the continuous viscosity range.
During brief occasions of maximum ambient temperature and severe duty cycle operation, minimum
viscosity may occur. The system should encounter maximum viscosity only at cold start.
Size heat exchangers to keep the fluid temperature and viscosity within these limits. Test the system to
verify that these temperature limits are not exceeded.

Fluid and Filtration

To prevent premature wear, use only new clean fluid. Use a filter capable of controlling fluid cleanliness
to ISO 4406 Class 22/18/13 (SAE J1165).
Locate the filter on the inlet (suction filtration) or discharge (charge pressure filtration) side of the charge
pump: 4T axial piston pumps are available with provisions for either configuration.
The selection of a filter depends on a number of factors including the contaminant ingression rate, the
generation of contaminants in the system, the required fluid cleanliness, and the desired maintenance
interval. Use filters that meet the above requirements of efficiency and capacity.
Filter efficiency can be measured with a Beta ratio (βX). For simple suction-filtered closed circuit
transmissions and open circuit transmissions with return line filtration, a filter with a β-ratio within the
range of β35-45 = 75 (β10 ≥ 2) or better has been found to be satisfactory. For some open circuit systems,
and closed circuits with cylinders being supplied from the same reservoir, a higher filter efficiency is
recommended. This also applies to systems with gears or clutches using a common reservoir. For these
systems, a charge pressure or return filtration system with a filter β-ratio in the range of β15-20 = 75 (β10 ≥
10) or better is typically required.
Because each system is unique, only a thorough testing and evaluation program can fully validate the
filtration system. Please see Design Guidelines for Hydraulic Fluid Cleanliness, 520L0467, Technical
Information for more information.

Mounting Flange Loads

Adding tandem mounted auxiliary pumps and/or subjecting pumps to high shock loads may result in
excessive loading of the mounting flange. Design pump applications to stay within the allowable shock
load and continuous load moments.
Shock load moment MS is the result of an instantaneous jolt to the system. Rated (continuous) load
moments MR are generated by the typical vibratory movement of the application.
Estimated maximum and continuous acceleration factors for some typical applications are shown in the
table.
Applications which experience extreme resonant vibrations may require additional pump support.
Exceeding the allowable overhung values listed below will require additional pump support.

Case Drain
The front and rear pumps are connected by cast passages in the housing. The charge relief valve
discharges oil into the front housing. In order to provide positive housing flow thru both pumps, use of
rear case drain is required. The front case drain should only be used if the pumps are used as a common
drain manifold for the vehicle whereas external drain flow is brought into the rear case port and
discharged out the front.
External Shaft Load and Bearing Life

Bearing life is a function of speed, pressure, and swashplate angle, plus any external loads. Other factors
that affect life include fluid type, viscosity, and cleanliness.
In vehicle propulsion drives with no external loads—where the speed, pressure, and swashplate angle are
often changing—normal bearing B10 (90% survival) life exceeds the hydraulic unit life.
In non-propel drives, such as conveyors or fan drives, the operating speed and pressure may be nearly
constant leading to a distinctive duty cycle compared to that of a propulsion drive. In these types of
applications, we recommend a bearing life review. 4T axial piston pumps use bearings that can accept
some incidental external radial and thrust loads. However, any amount of external load reduces the
expected bearing life.
The allowable radial shaft loads are a function of the load position, orientation, and operating pressures
of the hydraulic unit. In applications where you cannot avoid external shaft loads, minimize the impact on
bearing life by orienting the load to the 0° or 180° position.
The maximum allowable radial load is calculated as: Re = Me / L
Where:
L Distance from mounting flange to point of load
Me Maximum external moment
Re Maximum radial side load

If continuously applied external radial loads are 25% of the maximum allowable or more, or thrust loads

Use the table and drawing to determine maximum allowable radial loads (Re), based on the maximum
external moment (Me) and the distance (L) from the mounting flange to the load.
Hydraulic Unit Life

Hydraulic unit life is the life expectancy of the hydraulic components. Hydraulic unit life is a function of
speed and system pressure. However, system pressure is the dominant operating variable. High pressure,
which results from high load, reduces expected life.
Design the hydraulic system to a projected machine duty cycle. Know the expected percentages of time
at various loads and speeds. Ask your Danfoss representative to calculate an appropriate pressure based
your hydraulic system design. If duty cycle data is not available, input power and pump displacement are
used to calculate system pressure.
All pressure limits are differential pressures (referenced to charge pressure) and assume normal charge
pressure.
4T axial piston pumps will meet satisfactory life expectancy if applied within the parameters specified in
this bulletin. For more detailed information on hydraulic unit life see BLN-9884, Pressure and Speed Limits.

Charge Pump
An external charge pump is required on all 4T axial piston pumps units applied in closed circuit
installations to make up for internal leakage, to maintain positive pressure in the main circuit, and to
replace any leakage losses from external valving or auxiliary systems.
The total charge flow requirement is the sum of the charge flow requirement of each of the components
in the system. When initially sizing and selecting hydrostatic units for an applications, it is frequently not
possible to have all of the information necessary to accurately evaluate all aspects of charge pump size
selection. The following procedure will assist the designer in arriving at an initial charge pump selection
for a typical application.
In most 4T axial piston pump applications a general guideline is that the charge pump displacement
(CPG) should be equal to or greater than 10% of the total displacement (TD) of all axial piston units in the
system. This rule assumes that all units are of high speed, axial piston or bent axis design.
Particular application conditions may require a more detailed review of charge pump sizing. System
features and conditions that may invalidate the 10% of displacement rule include (but are not limited to):
• Operation at low input speeds (below 1500 rpm)
• Shock loadings
• Excessively long system lines
• Auxiliary flow requirements
• Use of low speed, high torque motors
If a charge pump of sufficient displacement to meet the 10% of displacement rule is not available or if any
of the above conditions exist which could invalidate the 10% rule, contact your Danfoss representative.
A charge pump sizing worksheet can be found in BLN-9885, Selection of Driveline Components.
Charge Pump Sizing Example:

A system consists of 4T 41cc Pump driving two Series 40 -M35 Fixed Motors:
• TD = 41 + 41 + 35 +35= 152 cm3
• CPD = 10 % x TD = 15.2 cm3
This requires a charge pump displacement of 15.2 cm3 .
Charge Relief Valve

The charge relief valve maintains charge pressure at a designated level. 4T axial piston pumps come with
direct-acting poppet style charge relief valves. The valve setting is set at the factory. The setting is screw
adjustable.
The charge pressure settings are nominal values and are based on the charge flow across the charge
relief valve with a fluid viscosity of 28 mm2/s (cSt) [130 SUS] and a pump input speed of 1800 min-1(rpm).
Actual charge pressure differs slightly from the nominal setting when different input speeds are used.
The charge setting is a differential pressure (referenced to case pressure) and measured with the piston
pump at zero swashplate angle (neutral). Charge pressure drops slightly when the pump is in stroke due
to flow demands.
The charge pressure setting for pumps without an internal charge pump is set with an assumed charge
flow of 38 l/min (10 US gal/min). These units must have adequate charge flow supplied to the charge
inlet in order to maintain charge pressure at all times.

C Caution
Incorrect charge pressure settings may result in the inability to build required system pressure, inability

operating conditions.
Overpressure Protection
4T axial piston pumps are available with a combination charge check and high pressure relief valve
assembly. High pressure relief valves come in a range of settings as shown in the model code. You may
specify individual port pressure settings. The high pressure relief valve settings are a differential pressure
(referenced to charge pressure) and are set at 3.8 l/min (1 US gal/min) of flow.
We can equip pumps with charge check valves only, if high pressure relief valve protection is not
necessary.

relief valves may result in pressure levels exceeding the nominal valve setting and potential damage to
system components.

Bypass Valve
4T axial piston pumps are available with an optional bypass function for use when pump shaft rotation is
not possible. Use the bypass function to bypass fluid around the variable displacement pump. For
example: you may move a disabled vehicle to a service location or winch it onto a trailer without
operating the prime mover.
The bypass valve is integral to the charge check/high pressure relief valve assembly. Depress the
plungers located in the plugs of the valve assemblies to operate the bypass function. The valves remain
open until the prime mover is started. Charge pressure automatically closes them.

C Caution
Damage to the hydraulic system may result from operating without charge flow. Bypass valves are for
moving a machine or vehicle for very short distances at very slow speeds. They are NOT tow valves.
Displacement Limiters
4T axial piston pumps are available with adjustable mechanical displacement (stroke) limiters located in
the servo covers. The maximum displacement of the pump can be limited to any value from its maximum
displacement to zero in either direction. The limiters are factory set slightly beyond the maximum
displacement of the pump. Displacement limiters may not be suited to all applications.
Series 42 pump displacement limiters
Shaft Options
4T axial piston pumps are available with a variety of splined and tapered shaft ends. The accompanying
table shows available shaft sizes and torque ratings. Maximum torque ratings are based on shaft torsional
strength and assume a maximum of 200 000 load reversals.
Use ANSI B92.1 Class 5 mating splines for splined output shafts. Danfoss external splines are modified
Class 5 fillet root side fit. The external spline major diameter and circular tooth thickness dimensions are
reduced in order to insure a clearance fit with the mating spline.

* The limitations of these input shafts constrain the allowable auxiliary coupling torque.
Auxiliary Mounting Pads

Auxiliary mounting pads are available on all 4T axial piston pumps to mount auxiliary hydraulic pumps.
We include a sealed (oil tight) shipping cover as standard equipment. The shipping cover seals case
pressure and you can use it as a running cover if desired.
Since the auxiliary mounting pad operates under case pressure, you must use an O-ring to seal the
auxiliary pump to the pad. The drive coupling is lubricated with oil from the main pump case.
Spline specifications and torque ratings are shown in the accompanying table.
• All mounting pads meet SAE J744 specifications.
• The sum of main and auxiliary pump torque must not exceed stated maximum.
• All torque values assume a 58 RC shaft spline hardness on mating pump shaft. Maximum torque is
based on maximum torsional strength and 200 000 load reversals.
• Applications with severe vibratory or high G-force (shock) loading may require additional structural
support to prevent leaks or mounting flange damage. Refer to Mounting flange loads for additional
information.

Control Selection
4T axial piston pumps use a servo control system with two types of control options. Manual Displacement
Controls (MDC) are feedback controls that provide and maintain a set displacement for a given input. The
MDC includes options for a Neutral Start Switch (NSS), backup alarm , and a solenoid override to neutral.
Non-Feedback Proportional Hydraulic controls (NFPH) is available to control the pump without
mechanical feedback.
All controls provide smooth, stepless positive control of the transmission in either direction. Optional
servo supply and drain orifices are available for special response needs.

Manual Displacement Control (MDC)

The Manual Displacement Control (MDC) converts a mechanical input signal to a hydraulic signal. The
hydraulic signal positions the servo piston, tilting the swashplate to vary the pump’s displacement and
flow direction.
The position of the swashplate is proportional to the mechanical input signal. The control has mechanical
feedback that regulates the servo valve in relation to swashplate position to maintain displacement at
the commanded level regardless of changes in system pressure.
The full featured 4T axial piston pumps manual control consists of two manual displacement controls
with backup alarm swiches. One of the controls incorporate a neutral override (NOR) solenoid and brake
release port. The other control housing drains through the first control housing to provide neutral
override function.
Manual controls for use on one pump are also available and can be used in combination with another
type of control on the other pump. The servo control valve has variable geometry porting to regulate
swashplate response relative to input command. The control performs small displacement change
commands with maximum controllability throughout the entire stroking range of the pump. It completes
large displacement change commands with rapid swashplate response. Optional servo supply and drain
orifices are available for special response needs.
The control also has a full over-travel spool that allows input at a faster rate than swashplate movement
without damage to the control. Any swashplate position error is feed back to the servo valve for instant
correction.
Features and Benefit of MDC

• The MDC is a high gain control: Small movements of the control handle move the servo valve to full
open position porting maximum flow to the servo cylinder.
• The full over-travel spool design allows rapid changes in input signal without damaging the control
mechanism.
• The MDC provides a fast response with low input force.
• Precision parts provide repeatable and accurate displacement settings.
• Mechanical feedback maintains pump displacement regardless of changes in system pressure.
• The operator is isolated from swashplate vibration.
• The swashplate and servo cylinder, as well as the control valve, are spring centered so the pump
returns quickly to neutral in the absence of control input.
The pump returns to neutral:
• if the prime mover is shut down;
• if the external control linkage fails at the control handle;
• if there is a loss of charge pressure.

Response Time
You can tailor the time to change from zero to maximum displacement using orifices incorporated in the
gasket between the control and pump housing. Using orifices you can match swashplate response to the
acceleration and deceleration requirements of your application. Verify proper orifice selection by testing.
MDC Response Time (Maximum to Maximum)

Frame size (cm3) Fast (no orifice) Medium Slow (standard)
41/51 0.6 sec 1.6 sec 2.5 sec
Neutral to maximum swashplate response is approximately 60% of the time for maximum to maximum
sawashplate travel. For other response times please contact your Danfoss representative.

Control Handles
Either straight or clevis (offset) style control handles are available for the MDC. The straight style handle
minimizes the overall height of the pump and control. The clevis style handle provides additional
clearance between the handle and control housing and works well for clevis style linkage installations.
Maximum allowable input torque at the control handle is 17 N•m (150 lbf•in). The maximum allowable
bending moment is 4 N•m (35 in•lbf ).

Electric Solenoid Override to Neutral

This normally open solenoid valve C shunts both ends of the servo piston. This prevents the pump from
stroking. When energized, the valve closes, allowing the pump to operate normally. This option is ideally
suited for operator presence or auto-resume functions without prime mover shut down. This solenoid is
available in 12 or 24 Vdc with 2 Amp. maximum current draw. It is available with Deutsch 2-way or with a
Packard Weather-Pack 2-way shroud connector.

Emergency Override to Neutral with Port for Brake Pressure Release

This solenoid valve C operates as the override to neutral above, and drains a spring-applied,
hydraulically-released brake (port X7). Energizing the valve allows the pump to operate as normal, while
also charging port X7 to release the brake. This option is ideally suited for emergency stop functions
without prime mover shut down. The solenoid is available in 12 or 24 Vdc with 2 Amp. maximum current
draw. It is available with Deutsch 2-way or with a Packard Weather-Pack 2-way shroud connector.

Neutral Start Switch (NSS)

This option provides an electrical switch contact that is closed when the control handle is in its neutral
(0°) position. The switch contact opens when the control handle rotates approximately 1.5° to 2°
clockwise (CW) or counterclockwise (CCW) from neutral.
The switch is rated for 5 Amp. inductive load at 12 or 24 Vdc. It is available with screw terminals (no
connector) or with a Packard Weather-Pack 2-way tower connector or Deutsch 2-way connector..
Wire the NSS in series with the engine starting circuit to ensure the pump is in neutral position before
allowing the engine to start.

The BUA switch contact is open until the control handle rotates 2.6° to 3.75° from neutral. The BUA switch
closes when the control handle rotates either clockwise (CW) or counterclockwise (CCW) from neutral
(choose one direction only). The NSS function operates as described above.
The BUA contacts are rated for 2.5 Amp. resistive load at 12 or 24 Vdc. The NSS contacts are rated for 5
Amp. inductive load at 12 or 24 Vdc. This switch is available with screw terminals (no connector) or with a
Packard Weather-Pack 4-way tower connectoror Deutsch 2-way, 4-way connector..

Non-Feedback, Proportional Hydraulic (NFPH) Control

The Non-Feedback Proportional Hydraulic (NFPH) control is a hydraulic displacement control in which an
input signal pressure directly controls the pump servo piston to set pump displacement.
4T axial piston pumps with NFPH control have a special servo cylinder capable of providing proportional
control with a hydraulic input.
Swashplate position is proportional to the differential signal pressure at ports X1 and X2, but
displacement is also dependent on pump speed and system pressure. This characteristic of non-feedback
controls provides a natural power limiting function by reducing the pump swashplate angle as system
pressure increases. The accompanying graph shows typical operating characteristics.
