SUN XMD Electro-Hydraulic Drivers

Configurable. Rugged. Universal. by SUN Hydraulics

XMD, the new compact, Bluetooth configurable electro-hydraulic driver, by SUN Hydraulics.

Built to stand up to extreme environmental conditions in mobile and industrial applications, Sun Hydraulics' XMD is a high-powered, electronic control device for electrically operated hydraulic actuators.

SUN's new XMD Bluetooth-configurable, electro-hydraulic driver is both CE and E-Mark rated, meeting the needs of international mobile and industrial equipment. The XMD serves actuators used in on- and off-highway equipment in numerous applications including agriculture, forestry, construction, marine, earth moving and material handling.

XMD is designed and offered in two models — the XMD-01 with a single universal input and PWM output and the XMD-02 with two universal inputs and two PWM outputs. SUN's mobile driver has the ability to output 0-3000 mA with ±1-mA resolution which allows it to maintain precision control when used with pumps, valves, motors, or cylinders.

XMD Mobile APP:
In addition to its sleek, compact design, the new XMDs offer a range of advanced features:

  • Simplified configuration via Sun’s XMD mobile phone app
  • SAE J1939 CAN communication capabilities
  • Pre-programmed profiles for common tasks
  • Comprehensive diagnostic mode
  • Ability to easily shape and apply output curves

Hydraulic system designers in the market have sought a simple, high-powered device capable of meeting the needs of many harsh environments in mobile and industrial applications.

"The XMD Drivers are the answer to customer requests for simple and configurable electronic control products that live up to SUN’s reputation for quality and performance while delivering outstanding value in today’s cost-conscious hydraulics market," said Gary Gotting, Global Product Manager.

XMD Comptability:
The electrical connection is made via a standard 12-pin Deutsch connector. The open architecture of the XMD allows many compatible connections and coil types including:

  • DIN 43650
  • Amp Junior Timer
  • Twin-lead
  • Metri-pack 
  • Sun’s new FLeX coils

The XMD is designed by SUN Hydraulics for use with Controller Area Network (CAN) communication. Using the free XMD mobile app, available in both Android and Apple products, the driver serves as a remote I/O module to receive and transmit SAE J1939 messages simply and securely. The intelligent system works as a master controller for the driver and provides minimal I/O investment for the user.

The XMD is compatible with standard DIN 35-mm rails and can also be mounted to any flat surface such as a manifold block using an innovative snap-in-place installation bracket.

Available Models:

  • XMD-01 - Verstärker für eine Spule
  • XMD-02 - Verstärker für zwei Spulen
