Applications built with the EFC39
- Concrete placer application: the steering system algorithm, the coordination between the CANBUS remote control and the valve block and the control of all movements are provided by the EFC39.
- Road sweeper automation: the system controls all machine functions and manages the engine and cluster.
- Foam and water tank level control system: 1 EFC39-Full control unit and 2 pressure sensors of 250 mBar with 4-20 mA output control the liquid level of 2 tanks with a single controller.
- Vertical personnel elevator (MANLIFT) motion control system: the EFC39 controls the movements of the chassis assembly and manages working time.
- Fully proportional hydraulic valve control system: 4 section (8 coils) valves are driven with 4 axis joysticks using the EFC39-V1 (Basic Version).
Customers can program this control unit themselves, or EHR Elektronik develops the application.

How many tanks can a single EFC39 monitor?
In the foam and water tank application, 1 EFC39-Full control unit and 2 pressure sensors of 250 mBar with 4-20 mA output are used; the system is economical because the liquid level of 2 tanks can be controlled with a single controller.
Can the EFC39 be used together with other Electroforce control units?
In the vertical personnel elevator (MANLIFT) application, 1 EFC39 controls the movements of the chassis assembly and manages working time, while 1 EFC24 controls the joystick and basket assembly movements and screen management; only Canbus communication is used between the chassis assembly and the basket control console.
