HYDRAULIC AUTHORITY / POWER UNITS

Hydraulic Power Units | Engineering & Build

Hydraulic power-unit engineering based on pressure, flow, duty cycle, reservoir, pump, motor, manifold, filtration and thermal management.

Inputs required for power-unit design

  • Pressure and flow per motion
  • Duty cycle and cycle time
  • Actuator type and quantity
  • Ambient and oil temperature
  • Control and instrumentation level
  • Installation space and maintenance requirements

Main power-unit systems

  • Reservoir & Accessories
  • Pump & Electric Motor
  • Manifold & Valves
  • Filtration
  • Cooling / Heating
  • Instrumentation & Electrical Control

Typical applications

  • Steel lines
  • Presses and production machinery
  • Mining equipment
  • Test systems
  • Custom machinery and retrofit

A power unit is an engineered system

Reservoir sizing, pump and motor selection, valve logic, filtration and thermal management should be calculated from the real operating cycle rather than selected as isolated components.
