Hydraulic Pump
To achieve the best in terms of performance and life, it is necessary to meet the
catalogue specifications, but it is also necessary to follow some general rules, and we
would like to recommend the following :
Put much care in designing the hydraulic circuit as a the whole, specially the
suction line, the choice and the position of the safety relief valves, of the filters,
and dimensioning reservoir and heat exchangers.
Ensure a correct and frequent cleaning and maintenance of circuit and hydraulic
fluid.
Equip the circuit with suitable alarm and safety devices, as well as reliable
instrumentations.
Avoid as much as possible cold starting, under load, specially at low roomtemperatures,
and after long standstills. Repeated starts under load are not
recommended.
At low speeds, avoid to use the pump at high pressure for long periods, or in
excessively intermittent duties. In these cases a multiplier gearbox is
recommended.
A proper oil choice is a major factor, as well as a correct thermal protection.
Drive the pump whit a suitable power take off (PTO).
