Danfoss Best Point Control

Greater eﬃciency throughintelligent engine speed control

Reduce machine fuelconsumption by up to25%

Maximize power, efficiency,and user comfort
Danfoss Best Point Control (BPC) is a software technology that can dramatically increase
the efficiency of a machine. By detecting the power required for the operating conditions
and automatically adjusting the engine speed to meet optimum efficiency points, BPC
adds instant value to virtually any application.
®

As a PLUS+1 compliant software block, BPC offers plug-and-perform integration intoexisting work flows. Regardless of the application, BPC helps to reduce development
time and almost instantly increases machine control.

How BPC can boost your bottom line
In traditional hydrostatic transmissions, the operator uses a foot pedal to control
engine speed. With BPC, the operator controls only the machine’s forward andreverse movements via the drive pedal and directional command. The BPC
software instantly adjusts the engine and hydrostatic transmission to deliver
maximum efficiency — regardless of how the machine is being operated.
CUSTOMER PROFILE
Fuel savings of up to 25%. The
integration of BPC technology cancreate average fuel savings of up to 25%
depending on the application type,duty cycle, and system configuration.
Danfoss BPC delivers fuel savings at
almost every operating point, includingtransport driving, acceleration,deceleration, and work functions.

Increase driver comfort andproductivity. In microseconds, thesystem determines the lowest possible
engine speed to accomplish any
work function. This not only takes theburden of controlling engine speed
off operators, but also improves
productivity by increasing machine
responsiveness and control.

Decrease noise and emissions in
the work area. Keep engine workat the appropriate level for every
task while reducing overall noiseand emissions. Lower engine noise
is easier on operators and also criticalwhen working on sites that have noise
restrictions, such as residential areas.

Get the most work out of yourengines. The ultra-efficient use of power
for each task frees engine power tooperate other sub-systems, such as work
functions, fan drives, steering, and more.
This also has the potential to reduce
OEM costs and help with Tier IV andeventual Tier V compliance.

Consistent operator performance.
By making instant adjustments toengine speed and the hydrostatictransmission, BPC technology allows
you to get the most out of yourmachine or your fleet — regardlessof operator skill level.

Immediate value, regardless of theapplication. BPC technology provides
immediate efficiency gains for almost
any application. From agriculture toforestry, tractors to telehandlers, BPC cancreate tangible results for your business.

Creating greater efficiency
through partnership andapplication expertise.
When a telehandler manufacturer
recently embarked on a productredesign, they set some aggressive
efficiency and performance goals.
After consulting with Danfoss Power
Solutions system application expertson the advantages of an integrated
electronic approach to machine
efficiency, they established a strong
partnership with Danfoss Power
Solutions throughout the telehandler
development process.
By utilizing the engine speed control
efficiencies provided by integrating
Danfoss Best Point Control with
PLUS+1 compliant Danfoss H1pumps and motors, the telehandler
manufacturer was able to achieve
an average machine fuel savings ofalmost 18%.
