Features
Variable double pump with two axial piston rotary
groups of swashplate design for hydrostatic drives in a
closed circuit
The flow is proportional to the drive speed and displace-
ment.
The flow can be infinitely varied by adjusting the swash-
plate angle.
Flow direction changes smoothly when the swashplate
is moved through the neutral position.
Only one shared port for case drain fluid for both circuits
Compact design for tight installation conditions
Note
Only for series no smaller than 200 units per year.
Please contact us regarding smaller series.

Hydraulic fluids
Hydraulic fluids
The A22VG variable double pump is designed for operation
with HLP mineral oil according to DIN 51524.
Application notes and requirements for hydraulic fluids
should be taken from the following data sheets before the
start of project planning:
90220: Hydraulic fluids based on mineral oils and
related hydrocarbons
90221: Environmentally acceptable hydraulic fluids
90222: Fire-resistant, water-free hydraulic fluids
(HFDR/HFDU)
Details regarding the selection of hydraulic fluid
The hydraulic fluid should be selected such that the
operating viscosity in the operating temperature range is
within the optimum range (ν
opt
see selection diagram).
Note
At no point of the component may the temperature be
higher than 115 °C. The temperature difference specified
in the table is to be taken into account when determining
the viscosity in the bearing.
If the above conditions cannot be maintained due to
extreme operating parameters, please contact the responsible
member of staff at Bosch Rexroth.

Filtration of the hydraulic fluid
Finer filtration improves the cleanliness level of the hydraulic
fluid, which increases the service life of the axial piston
unit.
A cleanliness level of at least 20/18/15 is to be maintained
according to ISO 4406.
We recommend, depending on the system and application,
for the A22VG: filter cartridges β
20
≥ 100.
At very high hydraulic fluid temperatures (90°C to maximum
110°C, measured at port T), a cleanliness level of at least
19/17/14 according to ISO 4406 is necessary.
Shaft seal
Permissible pressure loading
The service life of the shaft seal is influenced by the speed
of the axial piston unit and the leakage pressure in the
housing (case pressure). Momentary pressure spikes
(t<0.1s) of up to 10bar are permitted. The service life
of the shaft seal decreases with increasing frequency of
pressure spikes and increasing mean differential pressure.
The case pressure must be equal to or higher than the
ambient pressure.

The maximum required torque at the lever is 170 Ncm. To
prevent damage to the HW control module, a mechanical
stop must be provided by the customer for the HW control
lever.
Note
Spring centering enables the pump, depending on pres-
sure and rotational speed, to move automatically to the
neutral position (V
g
=0) as soon as there is no longer
any torque on the control lever of the HW control module
(regardless of deflection angle).
Variation: Neutral position switch
The switch contact in the neutral position switch is closed
when the control lever on the HW control module is in its
neutral position. The switch opens when the control lever
is moved out of neutral in either direction.
Thus, the neutral position switch provides a monitoring
function for drive units that require the pump to be in the
neutral position during certain operating conditions (e.g.
starting diesel engines).

The output flow of the pump is infinitely variable between
0to100%, proportional to the electrical current supplied
to solenoid a or b.
The electrical energy is converted into a force acting on the
control spool.
This valve spool then directs control oil into and out of the
stroking cylinder to adjust pump displacement as required.
A feedback lever, connected to the stroking piston maintains
the pump flow for a given current within the control range.
If the pump is also equipped with a DA control valve

directly to the stroking piston through X
5
or X
6
.
Flow direction is determined by which control pressure
port is pressurized (refer to table below).
Pump displacement is infinitely variable and proportional
to the applied control pressure, but is also influenced by
system pressure and pump drive speed.
Maximum permissible control pressure: 30 bar
Use of the HT control requires a review of the engine and
vehicle parameters to ensure that the pump is set up
correctly. We recommend that all HT applications be
reviewed by a Bosch Rexroth application engineer.
The DA control valve only becomes effective if the pilot
control device used for controlling the HT control is
supplied from port Y.

The output flow of the pump is infinitely variable in the
range 0 to 100%. Depending on the preselected current I
(mA) at solenoids a and b of the pressure reducing valves,
the stroking cylinder of the pump is proportionally supplied
with control pressure. The pump displacement that arises
at a certain control current is dependent on the rotational
speed and operating pressure of the pump. A different flow
direction is associated with each pressure reducing valve.

Speed related pilot pressure supply
The DA closed loop control is an engine speed-dependent
system for travel drives. The built-in DA control valve gener-
ates a pilot pressure which is proportional to pump
(engine) drive speed. The pump displacement is infinitely
variable in each flow direction and is influenced by both
pump drive speed and system pressure.
Increasing the pump drive speed causes the DA control
valve to generate a higher pilot pressure with a resulting
increase in the flow from the pump.
Depending on the selected pump operating characteristics,
increasing system pressure (e.g. machine load) causes the
pump to swivel back towards a smaller displacement.
Diesel engine overload protection (anti-stall) is achieved by
the combination of this pressure-related pump de-stroking,
and the reduction of pilot pressure as the engine speed
drops.
Any additional power requirement, e.g. for hydraulic func-
tions from attachments, could cause the engine speed to
drop further. This would cause a further reduction in pilot
pressure and thus of pump displacement. Automatic power
distribution and full exploitation of the available power are
achieved in this way, both for the travel drive and for the
implement hydraulics, with priority given to the implement
hydraulics.
The DA control valve can also be used in pumps with EP, HT
and HW control modules to protect the combustion engine
against overload.
DA closed loop control is only suitable for certain types of
drive systems and requires review of the engine and vehicle
parameters to ensure that the pump is used correctly and
that machine operation is safe and efficient. We recommend
that all DA applications be reviewed by a Bosch Rexroth
application engineer.

Boost pump
Boost pump
The boost pump continuously supplies a volume of fluid
(boost volume) from a reservoir to the low-pressure side of
the closed circuit via a check valve to replenish the internal
leakage of the variable double pump and consumer.
The boost pump is an internal gear pump that is driven
directly via the drive shaft. The pressure port G
2
of the
boost pump must be externally piped up to port G
(or G

by the customer for version with DA control valve)
(see example circuit diagram below). Suction or pressure
filtration is to be provided by the customer.

High-pressure relief valves
The four high-pressure relief valves protect the hydrostatic
transmission (pump and motor) from overload. They limit
the maximum pressure in the respective high-pressure line
and serve simultaneously as boost valves.
High-pressure relief valves are not working valves and are
only suitable for pressure spikes or high rates of pressure
change.

Installation instructions
Installation instructions
General
During commissioning and operation, the axial piston unit
must be filled with hydraulic fluid and air bled. This must
also observed following a relatively long standstill as the
axial piston unit may drain back to the reservoir via the
hydraulic lines.
The leakage in the housing must be directed to the reser-
voir via the highest drain port T.
For combinations of multiple units, the leakage must be
drained at each pump. If a shared drain line is used for this
purpose, make certain that the respective case pressure is
not exceeded. In the event of pressure differences at the
drain ports of the units, the shared drain line must be
changed so that the minimum permissible case pressure of
all connected units is not exceeded in any situation. If this
is not possible, separate drain lines must be laid if neces-
sary.
To achieve favorable noise values, decouple all connecting
lines using elastic elements and avoid above-reservoir
installation.
In all operating conditions, the suction and drain lines must
flow into the reservoir below the minimum fluid level. The
permissible suction height h
S
results from the overall loss
of pressure; it must not, however, be higher than
h
Smax
=800 mm. The minimum suction pressure at port S
must also not fall below 0.8bar absolute during operation
(cold start 0.5bar absolute).
When designing the reservoir, ensure adequate space
between the suction line and the drain line. This prevents
the heated, return flow from being drawn directly back
into the suction line.
Installation position
See the following examples 1 to 4.
Further installation positions are possible upon request.
Notes
If it is not possible to fill the stroking chambers via X
1
to X
4
in the final installation position, this must be
done prior to installation.
To prevent unexpected actuation and damage, the
stroking chambers must be air bled via ports X

depending on the installation position.
For HT control, X

In certain installation positions, an influence on the

A22VG series 40 | Axial piston variable double pump
Project planning notes
Project planning notes
The pump A22VG is designed to be used in closed circuit.
The project planning, installation and commissioning of
the axial piston unit requires the involvement of quali-
fied skilled person.
Before using the axial piston unit, please read the corre-
sponding instruction manual completely and thoroughly.
If necessary, these can be requested from Bosch
Rexroth.
Before finalizing your design, request a binding installa-
tion drawing.
The data and notes contained herein must be adhered
to.
Depending on the operating conditions of the axial
piston unit (operating pressure, fluid temperature),
the characteristic curve may shift.
Not all variants of the product are approved for use in
safety functions according to ISO13849. Please consult
the responsible contact person at Bosch Rexroth if you
require reliability parameters (e.g. MTTF
d
) for functional
safety.
Working ports:
The ports and fastening threads are designed for the
specified maximum pressure. The machine or system
manufacturer must ensure that the connecting ele-
ments and lines correspond to the specified applica-
tion conditions (pressure, flow, hydraulic fluid, tem-
perature) with the necessary safety factors.
The working ports and function ports can only be
used to accommodate hydraulic lines.
Safety instructions
During and shortly after operation, there is a risk of
burns on the axial piston unit and especially on the
solenoids. Take appropriate safety measures (e.g. by
wearing protective clothing).
Moving parts in control and regulation systems (e.g.
valve spools) may in certain circumstances become
stuck in an undefined position due to contamination
(e.g. contaminated hydraulic fluid, abrasion or residual
dirt from components). As a result, the hydraulic fluid
flow or build-up of torque of the axial piston unit will no
longer respond correctly to the operator’s commands.
Even the use of different filter cartridges (external or
internal inlet filter) will not rule out a fault but merely
minimize the risk. The machine/system manufacturer
must test whether remedial measures are needed on the
machine for the application concerned in order to set
the consumer being driven to a safe position (e.g. safe
stop) and if necessary to ensure it is properly imple-
mented.
