What are NFPA Cylinders for Pumps?

January 15th, 2019

Much like any other engineering discipline, hydraulics technology is rife with acronyms. The latest of which, NFPA cylinders, requires decoding. NFPA, strictly speaking, isn’t a descriptive acronym, it’s a shorthand way of referring to a regulatory body, one that’s known as the National Fluid Power Association. Equipped with many resources, one of this regulatory body’s […]

Positive Displacement Pumps: Important Things that You Should Know

December 13th, 2018

Positive displacement pumps rule the hydraulics sector. Granted, an attempt by the sector to switch to non-positive displacement could be made, but the equipment based on this pump type would be unable to produce a positive internal seal. Yes, the gear would create a continuous flow, but that flow would vary as pressure changes took […]

Hydraulic Fluid Overheating: Causes and Remedies

December 10th, 2018

A system malfunction is taking shape, and a hydraulic fluid overheating problem is causing major headaches. If the equipment owner is to avoid popping a painkiller, he needs to know what’s behind the heat generating riddle. On identifying the thermal energy source, only then can a remedy be implemented. Let’s start with a quick fluid […]

High Speed and Low Speed Parker Gerotor Motors: What are the Differences?

November 22nd, 2018

When Low-Speed Parker Geroter Motors run, they deliver massive quantities of torque. It’s this architecture that expedites traction-intensive fluid equipment applications. Tractors, construction equipment, forestry tools, they all benefit from LSHT (Low-Speed High Torque) hydraulic motor configurations. Interestingly, compared to their high-speed cousins, slow rotating gerotors are functionally different from their opposite numbers. Beginning with […]

Reasons Why Hydraulics Equipment Should Be Charged Correctly

November 12th, 2018

Focusing once again on the mobile hydraulics sector, the moment has come to talk about equipment charging. Dynamically energizing the hydrostatic feed loop, a charge pump keeps the equipment responsive. After all, like it or not, hydraulic systems become less efficient as their circuits and circuit elements move away from the system’s prime charging unit. […]
