Series 90 Functional Description 2
2. Functional Description
This section describes the operation of pumps, motors, and their various serviceable features. It is a useful
reference for readers unfamiliar with the functioning of a specific system.
2.1 General Description and Cross Sectional Views
2.1.1 Variable Displacement Pumps

The Variable Displacement Pump (PV) is designed to
convert an input torque into hydraulic power. The
input shaft turns the pump cylinder which contains a
ring of pistons. The pistons run against a tilted plate,
called the swashplate. This causes the pistons to
compress the hydraulic fluid which imparts the input
energy into the hydraulic fluid. The high pressure fluid
is then ported out to provide power to a remote
function.
The swashplate angle can be varied by the control

piston. Altering the swashplate angle varies the dis- 90000346
placement of fluid in a given revolution of the input Series 90 Variable Displacement Pump (PV)
shaft. A larger angle causes greater displacement Control Piston
Valve Plate Piston
which yields greater output torque for a given input. A Manual Displacement Control
smaller angle reduces the displacement per revolu-
tion and yields greater speed for a given input. Roller Bearing

2.1.2 Fixed Displacement Motor
The Fixed Displacement Motor (MF) is designed to
convert an input of hydraulic power into an output
torque. It operates in the reverse manner of the
pump. The high pressure hydraulic fluid enters through
the input port. The fluid pressure builds behind the
pistons causing them to move down the swashplate
(the path of least resistance). As the piston returns up
the swashplate again, the fluid is allowed to exit
through the exit port. The spinning pistons are housed
in a cylinder which is connected to the output shaft.
The output torque can be applied to a mechanical
function. 90000347

2.3 Common Features of Pumps and Motors
2.3.1 End Caps and Shafts

Series 90 pumps and motors can be supplied with a
variety of end caps and shafts to allow for almost any
configuration. For pumps, end caps are available
with system ports on either side ("side ports") or both
ports on one side ("twin ports"). Motors have end
caps with ports on the face of the end cap ("axial
ports") or both ports on one side ("twin ports"). See
the Series 90 Technical Information manuals (BLN-
10029 and BLN-10030) or the Series 90 Price Book
(BLN-2-40588) for information on available options.
Removing the end cap will void the warranty on a
Series 90 pump or motor.
2.3.2 Speed Sensors

An optional speed sensor can be installed on Series
90 pumps and motors to provide unit speed informa-
tion. The sensor reads a magnetic ring wrapped
about the unit's cylinder. See Sec. 4 to locate the
speed sensor port. See Sec. 8.4 and 9.6 to adjust and
install the sensor.

2.4 Pump Features
2.4.1 Charge Pump

The charge pump is necessary to supply cool fluid to
the system, to maintain positive pressure in the main
system loop, to provide pressure to operate the
control system, and to make up for internal leakage.
Charge pressure must be at its specified pressure
under all conditions of driving and braking to prevent
damage to the transmission.
The charge pump is a fixed-displacement, gerotor

type pump installed in the variable displacement
pump and driven off the main pump shaft. Charge
pressure is limited by a relief valve (Sec. 2.4.2).
90000243
The standard charge pump will be satisfactory for PV with Charge Pump
most applications. However, if the charge pump sizes
available for the given main pump size are not ad-
equate, a gear pump may be mounted to the auxiliary
mounting pad (Sec. 2.4.8) and supply the required
additional charge flow. For repairs to the charge
pump see Sec. 9.2.4.
2.4.2 Charge Relief Valve

The charge relief valve on the pump serves to main-
tain charge pressure at a designated level. A direct-
acting poppet valve relieves charge pressure when-
ever it surpasses a certain level. This level is nomi-
nally set referencing case pressure at 1775 rpm. This
nominal setting assumes the pump is in neutral (zero 90000349
flow); in forward or reverse charge pressure will be Charge Pump Components

lower. The charge relief valve setting is specified on
the model code of the pump (Sec. 8.1.1). For repairs

2.4.3 System Check Valves System
Check
The system check valves allow pressurized flow from Valves
the charge pump to enter the low pressure side of the Input PV PF
loop whenever system pressure dips below a certain
Charge
level. This is needed as the pump will generally lose
Pump
system pressure due to leakage and other factors.
Since the pump can operate in either direction, two
system check valves are used to direct the charge
supply into the low pressure lines. The system check
valves are poppet valves located in the multi-function
valve assembly (next section). Inlet Filter

2.4.4 Multi-Function Valves

All Series 90 pumps include two multi-function valves.
The multi-function valve incorporates the system
check valve, the pressure limiter valve, the high
pressure relief valve, and the bypass valve in a
replaceable cartridge. These functions are described
separately. There are two multi-function valve car-
tridges in each Series 90 pump to handle functions in
either direction. See Secs. 8.1.2 and 9.2.1 for adjust-
ments and repairs.
NOTE: Some multi-function valves do not in-

clude a pressure limiter valve.

2.4.7 Displacement Limiters

Series 90 pumps sizes 042 - 250 are designed for
optional mechanical displacement (stroke) limiters.
The maximum displacement of the pump can be
limited in either direction.
The setting can be set as low as 0° in either direction.
For instructions on adjustment see Sec. 8.1.5.

2.4.8 Auxiliary Mounting Pads

Auxiliary mounting pads are available on all Series 90
pumps. SAE A through E and H mounts are available
(availability varies by pump size). This pad is used for
mounting auxiliary hydraulic pumps and for mounting
additional Series 90 pumps to make tandem pumps.
The pads allow for full through-torque capability.
90000242
PV with Auxiliary Mounting Pad
2.4.9 Filtration Options

All Series 90 pumps are available with provisions for
either suction or charge pressure filtration (integral or
remote mounted) to filter the fluid entering the charge
circuit. (See Sec. 6 for more information.)
Suction Filtration
The suction filter is placed in the circuit between the
reservoir and the inlet to the charge pump. When
suction filtration is used, a reducer fitting is placed in
the charge pressure gauge port (M3). Filtration de- 90000243
vices of this type are provided by the user. PV with Suction Filtration
(No filtration device attached)
Charge Pressure Filtration
The pressure filter may be integrally mounted directly
on the pump or a filter may be remotely mounted for
ease of servicing.
A 200 mesh screen, located in the reservoir or the

charge inlet line, is recommended when using this 90000246 90000247
filtration option. A non-bypass filter is preferred on all PV with Integral Charge Pressure Filtration (left)
types of filtration. PV with Remote Charge Pressure Filtration (right,

2.4.10 Pressure Override (POR) - 180

Frame Size Only
To Control The pressure override valve (POR) modulates the

control pressure to the displacement control to main-
tain a pump displacement which will produce a sys-
Multi-Function Valve tem pressure level less than or equal to the POR
Pressure setting. For unusually rapid load application, the high
Override pressure relief valve function of the multifunction
Control Valve Bypass Hex
Adjustment valves is available to also limit the pressure level.
Port "A"
The pressure override consists of a three-way nor-
Shuttle mally open valve which operates in series with the
Valve pump displacement control. Control supply pressure
Port "B"
is normally ported through the pressure override
valve to the displacement control valve for controlling
the pump's displacement. If the system demands a
pressure above the override setting, the POR valve
Multi-Function Valve Charge Pressure will override the control by reducing the control pres-
Relief Valve sure supplied to the displacement control. As the
90000802
control pressure reduces, the internal forces tending

servo pistons and allow the pump's displacement to
decrease.

2.5 Pump Control Options
2.5.1 Manual Displacement Control (MDC)

The manual displacement control converts a mechani-
cal input signal to a hydraulic signal using a spring-
centered four-way servo valve. This valve ports
hydraulic pressure to either side of a dual-acting
servo piston. The servo piston rotates the cradle
swashplate through an angular rotation of ±17°, thus
varying the pump’s displacement from full displace-
ment in one direction to full displacement in the 90000237
opposite direction. The MDC is designed so the
PV with Manual Displacement Control
angular position of the pump swashplate is propor-
tional to the rotation of the control input shaft. For
adjustments see 8.2.1; for repairs see 9.3.2, 9.3.8.
Non-Linear MDC
The non-linear manual displacement control (photo
in Sec. 8.2.2) operates in the same manner as the
regular MDC except that it is designed so the change
in the angular position of the pump swashplate pro-
gressively increases as the control input shaft is
rotated toward its maximum displacement position.
For adjustments see Sec. 8.2.2; for repairs see 9.3.2.
90000239
Solenoid Override Valve
PV with Manual Displacement Control and Neutral
A solenoid override valve option (not shown here) is Start Switch
available for MDC. This safety feature will return the
swashplate to zero displacement position when acti-
vated. The valve may be set in either a normally open
or normally closed mode. For repairs see 9.3.3, 9.3.4.
Neutral Start Switch (NSS)
The neutral start switch is an optional feature avail-
able with MDC. When connected properly with the
vehicle’s electrical system, the neutral start switch
ensures that the prime mover can be started only
when the control is in a neutral position. For adjust-
ments see Sec. 8.2.3.
2.5.2 Hydraulic Displacement Control (HDC)

The hydraulic displacement control uses a hydraulic
input signal to operate a spring-centered four-way
servo valve. This valve ports hydraulic pressure to
either side of a dual-acting servo piston. The servo
piston rotates the cradle swashplate through an
angular rotation of ±17°, thus varying the pump’s
displacement from full displacement in one direction
to full displacement in the opposite direction. The
90000240
HDC is designed so the angular position of the pump
swashplate is proportional to input pressure. For PV with Hydraulic Displacement Control
adjustments see 8.2.4; for repairs see 9.3.5, 9.3.8.
13
saue
2.5.3 Electric Displacement Control (EDC)

The electric displacement control is similar to the
hydraulic displacement control with the input signal
pressure controlled by a pressure control pilot (PCP)
valve. The PCP valve converts a DC electrical input
signal to a hydraulic signal which operates a spring-
centered four-way servo valve. This valve ports hy-
draulic pressure to either side of a dual-acting servo
piston. The servo piston rotates the cradle swash-
90000241 plate through an angular rotation of ±17°, thus vary-
PV with Electric Displacement Control ing the pump’s displacement from full displacement
in one direction to full displacement in the opposite
direction. The control is designed so the angular
position of the swashplate is proportional to the EDC
input. For neutral adjustment see Sec. 8.2.4; for
repairs see Sec. 9.3.5, 9.3.6, and 9.3.8.
2.5.4 Automotive Control (AC and AC II)

Automotive Control (AC) allows a vehicle to be driven
in a manner similar to an automobile with an auto-
matic transmission.
The AC control includes a three-position electric

90000353 control to provide direction control.
PV with Automotive Control (AC)
The AC II control can be combined with a manual,
hydraulic, or electric displacement control to provide
both direction control and control over maximum
vehicle speed. It may also be combined with a 3-
position electric control to provide direction control.
2.5.5 3-Position (FNR) Electric Control

This control utilizes a 12 or 24 VDC electrically
operated spool valve to port pressure to either side of
the pump displacement control piston. Energizing
F000645 one of the solenoids will cause the pump to go to its
PV with Automotive Control Type II (AC II) maximum displacement in the corresponding direc-
tion.
All functions of the three-position (FNR) electric con-

trol are preset at the factory. For repairs, see Sec.
9.3.7.

2.6 Motor Features
2.6.1 Motor Loop Flushing Valve and

Charge Relief Valve
All Series 90 motors are designed to accommodate a
loop flushing valve. The loop flushing valve is used in
installations which require additional fluid to be re-
moved from the main hydraulic circuit because of
transmission cooling requirements, or unusual cir-
cuits requiring additional loop flushing to remove
excessive contamination in the high pressure circuit.

2.6.2 Variable Motor Displacement

Limiters
All Series 90 variable motors include mechanical
displacement (stroke) limiters. Both the maximum
and minimum displacement of the motor can be
limited.
The range of the settings is as follows:
055 MV Frame 075 MV Frame
Minimum 19 - 40 cm3 26 - 54 cm3

Displacement 1.2 - 2.4 in3 1.6 - 3.3 in3

2.7 Variable Motor Controls
2.7.1 Hydraulic 2-Position Control

This control utilizes a hydraulically operated three-
way hydraulic valve to port system pressure to either
of the motor displacement control pistons. The motor
is normally held at its maximum displacement. Sup-
plying pilot hydraulic pressure to the valve will cause
the motor to go to its minimum displacement.
All functions of the hydraulic two-position control are

preset at the factory. For repairs see Sec. 9.5.2 and
9.5.4.

MV with Hydraulic 2-Position Control
2.7.2 Electric 2-Position Control

This control utilizes an electric solenoid operated
three-way hydraulic valve to port system pressure to
either of the motor displacement control pistons. The
motor is normally held at its maximum displacement.
Energizing the solenoid will cause the motor to go to
its minimum displacement.
All functions of the electric two-position control are

preset at the factory. For repairs see Sec. 9.5.1 and

This section offers instruction on how to perform inspections and adjustments on pump and motor components.
Read through the entire related section before beginning a service activity. Refer to Sec. 4 for location of gauge
ports and suggested gauge size.
8.1 Pump Adjustments
8.1.1 Charge Relief Valve Adjustment

The following procedure explains how to check and
adjust the charge relief valve. (For description see
Sec. 2.4.2.)
WARNING
The following procedure may require the ve-
hicle/machine to be disabled (wheels raised off
the ground, work function disconnected, etc.)
in order to prevent injury to the technician and
bystanders.
1. To measure pump charge pressure, install a pres-

sure gauge in the pump charge pressure gauge
port (M3). Also install a gauge to measure case
pressure (tee into L1 or L2 or use servo gauge
port). Operate the system with the pump in “neu-
tral” (zero displacement) when measuring pump 90000243

3. Earlier production Series 90 pumps are equipped
with a shim adjustable charge relief valve. Shim
kits are available from Sauer-Sundstrand. Adjust-
ment of charge pressure is accomplished by re-
moving the plug [1 inch Hex] and changing the
shim thickness behind the spring. The plug for this
type of charge relief valve should be torqued to 68
Nm (50 lbf•ft).

large screwdriver or a 1/2 inch hex wrench. Clock-
wise rotation of the plug increases the setting, and
counterclockwise rotation decreases the setting
(at a rate of approximately 3.4 bar (50 psi) per
turn). The lock nut for this type of charge relief
valve should be torqued to 52 Nm (38 lbf•ft).

8.1.2 Multi-Function Valve Pressure

Adjustment
Adjustment of the pressure limiter setting and the
high pressure relief valve setting is accomplished
simultaneously. The latter is automatically set ap-
proximately 35 bar (500 psi) above the former. For
description of multi-function valve see Sec. 2.4.4.
In order to adjust the pressure limiter setting, the
motor output shaft must be locked so it does not
rotate. This may be accomplished by locking the
vehicle’s brakes or rigidly fixing the work function so
it cannot rotate.
WARNING
Take necessary precautions that the motor
shaft remains stationary during the adjust-
ment procedure. 90000258
Multi-Function Valves on PV
1. Install two 1000 bar (or 10,000 psi) pressure
gauges in the high pressure gauge ports (M1 and
M2). Install a 50 bar (or 1000 psi) pressure gauge
in the pump charge pressure gauge port (M3).
2. Start the prime mover and operate at normal
speed.
3. Loosen locking nut (smallest hex on multi-func-
tion valve) with a 10 mm wrench for earlier 042
through 100 frame size units, a 19 mm wrench for
030 and later 042 through 100 frame size units, or
a 13 mm wrench for earlier 130 frame size units.
4. Insert a 3 mm (early 042 through 100 units), 5 mm
030 and (late 042 through 100 units), or 4 mm
(earlier 130 units) internal hex wrench into the
pressure adjusting screw.
NOTE: A plastic dust plug is installed in the

6. Return the pump to its “neutral” (zero flow) posi-

tion and adjust the pressure limiter setting by
rotating the pressure adjusting screw with the
internal hex wrench.
Clockwise rotation of the pressure adjustment
screw will increase the pressure setting, and
counterclockwise rotation will decrease the pres-
sure setting. Each complete rotation of the pres-
sure adjusting screw changes the pressure set-
ting by approximately 83 bar (1200 psi) on earlier
042 through 100 units, or by approximately 93 bar
(1350 psi) on 030 and later 042 through 100 units.
90000260 7. To verify the actual pressure setting, actuate or
Rotate Pressure Adjusting Screw
move the control input so that the pump again
develops pressure in the high pressure circuit to
the newly adjusted pressure limiter pressure set-
ting, and read the high pressure gauge. Then
allow the pump to return to its “neutral” position.
The pressure in the high pressure circuit should
return to the charge pressure setting.
8. While holding the pressure adjusting screw sta-
tionary, tighten the pressure adjusting screw lock
nut to 3 Nm (26 in•lbf) on early production units, or
16 Nm (12 ft•lbf) on late production units. Do not
over-torque.
9. Shut down the prime mover, remove the gauges
and install the gauge port plugs. Replace the
plastic dust plugs (if used).
The same procedure is used for setting the pressure
limit of the other multi-function valve, but the control
input signal must be activated or moved in the oppo-
site direction so that high pressure develops in the
opposite side of the closed circuit.

8.2 Pump Control Adjustments
8.2.1 Standard Manual Displacement

Control (MDC) Adjustment
There are no adjustable elements in the manual
displacement control. The control spool is held in its
“neutral” position by centering springs and washers
on each end of the spool. Since there is no centering
spring on the control input shaft, the shaft will auto-
matically assume the appropriate position when the
control is installed on the pump.
For a functional description see Sec. 2.5.1.

8.2.2 Non-Linear Manual Displacement

Control (MDC)
A centering spring, located on the control input shaft,
locates the control shaft in its “neutral” position. A
bias spring on the control spool maintains a force on
the spool and the control linkage to eliminate loose-
ness (“free-play”) in the linkage.
The “neutral” adjustment is the only adjustment that
can be made on the nonlinear manual displacement
control. All other functions are preset at the factory.
This adjustment must be made on a test stand or on

the vehicle/machine with the prime mover operating.
WARNING 90000829
The following procedure requires the vehicle/ Variable Displacement Pump with Non-Linear
machine to be disabled (wheels raised off the Manual Displacement Control
ground, work function disconnected, etc.) in
order to prevent injury to the technician and
bystanders.
1. Install two 50 bar (or 1000 psi) gauges in each of

the displacement control cylinder gauge ports
(M4 and M5). Disconnect the external control
linkage from the control handle and make certain
the control shaft is in its “neutral” position. Start the
prime mover and operate at normal speed.
2. Loosen the lock nut on the neutral adjusting screw
with a 13 mm hex wrench.

5. Rotate the adjusting screw clockwise half the
distance between the locations noted above. The
gauges should read the same pressure (case
pressure), indicating that the control is in its “neu-
tral” position.
6. Hold the adjusting screw stationary and tighten
the lock nut to 13.6 Nm (10 in•lbf). Do not
overtorque the nut.

8.3 Motor Adjustments
8.3.1 Charge Relief Valve Adjustment

Motor charge relief is explained in Sec. 2.6.1.
1. To measure motor charge pressure, install a 50
bar (or 1000 psi) pressure gauge in the motor
charge pressure gauge port (M3). Also install a
gauge to measure case pressure. Operate the
system with the pump in stroke (forward or re-
verse) when measuring motor charge pressure.
2. The following table shows acceptable motor charge
pressures for some nominal charge relief valve
90000248 settings (see model code at right). These pres-
Charge Pressure Gauge Port (MF) sures assume a reservoir temperature of 49°C
(120°F). They are referenced to case pressure
and assume a one pump/one motor system.

24 bar 22.1 bar (320 psi)
28 bar 26.1 bar (378 psi)
30 bar 30.0 bar (435 psi)
3. Earlier production Series 90 motors are equipped

with a shim adjustable charge relief valve. Shim
kits are available as service items. Adjustment of
the charge pressure is accomplished by removing
the plug (7/8 inch hex) and changing the shim
thickness behind the spring. The plug for this type
90000263 90000265 charge relief port should be torqued to 68 Nm (50
Pressure Relief Valve Pressure Relief Valve ft•lbf).
(Motor) (Motor) Later production Series 90 motors are equipped
with an external screw adjustable charge relief
valve. Adjustment of charge pressure is accom-
plished by loosening the lock nut (with a 1-1/16
inch hex wrench for 030 through 100 units, or a 1-
5/8 inch hex wrench for 130 through 250 units),
and turning the adjustment plug with a large
screwdriver or a 1/2 inch hex wrench. Clockwise
rotation of the plug increases the setting, and
counterclockwise rotation decreases the setting
(at a rate of approximately 3.4 bar [50 psi] per
turn). The lock nut for this type charge relief valve
should be torqued to 52 Nm (38 ft•lbf).
4. Once the desired charge pressure setting is
achieved, remove the gauges.

9.1.2 Shaft Seal and Shaft Replacement

Lip type shaft seals are used on Series 90 pumps and
motors. These seals and/or the shafts can be re-
placed without major disassembly of the unit. How-
ever, replacement usually requires removal of the
pump or motor from the machine.
1. Position the pump with the shaft facing up.
NOTE: If the unit is positioned horizontally when
the shaft is removed, the cylinder block could
move out of place, making shaft installation diffi-
cult.
2. Remove the three or four screws holding the
retainer plate and seal carrier to the housing,
using a 10 mm hex wrench (030 and 042 units),
a 5 mm internal hex wrench (055 through 100
units), or a 6 mm internal hex wrench (130 through
90000270 90000271 250 units). Remove the retainer plate.
Remove Screws Holding Remove Seal Carrier
Retainer Plate and Seal NOTE: Certain earlier production units use a one
Carrier piece retainer plate and seal carrier.
3. After removing the screws, the spring force on the
shaft may move the seal carrier out of its bore by
approximately 5 mm (1/4 inch). If the seal carrier
does not move from its bore after removing the
screws, pry it from its bore as shown and/or lightly
tap the end of the shaft with a soft mallet.
4. Remove the O-ring from the seal carrier.
5. Place seal carrier and seal in an arbor press and
press out old seal.
