Are you an engineer designing or overhauling a hydraulic system? How do you know which coupling is right for you? Where do you start? Here’s an important reminder to start small… Start by choosing the right quick connect coupler to optimize your system’s performance in the long run.
The quick connects built into a hydraulic system can vary greatly in design and construction. These differences will directly affect a system’s ability to meet crucial pressure and flow requirements.
Download this article to discover the many attributes of a quick connect coupler, its role in a hydraulic system, and how to select the optimal quick connect coupler based on your system’s requirements.
In addition to the article, you will also be provided with a download link to a Quick Connect Hydraulics Collection, an assortment of helpful PDF Drawings, Catalogs, and 3D Drawings.
In most cases, electronic cards in mobile proportional technology have to operate under challenging conditions. The electronic devices are fitted directly at the vehicle, often without protection, and are directly exposed to the weather and still have to perform perfectly at all times. This means that the following conditions must be fulfilled:
Choosing the best hydraulic cylinder seal package for an application can be a daunting task. There are many different options and design styles available, and each has its own set of strengths and weaknesses.
Enhance the serviceability and value of your product design by incorporating quick disconnect fittings.
Today we are seeing a major shift from pneumatic linear actuators to electromechanical systems. This is because of high maintenance requirements of pneumatic and hydraulic systems which results in long machine downtimes and lost productivity. But can electrical linear systems truly fill in as a perfect solution and replace pneumatic systems?
Low hysteresis and a consistent lift-off current make the PFV series of 2-way proportional solenoid valves ideal for OEM liquid and gas applications where repeatable, accurate performance is key. Featuring stainless steel construction and an IP67 rating, these valves are top-in-class for both performance and construction.
Manual hydraulic directional control valves are probably the most common of all hydraulic components, but how do you know which is the right valve for your application? We have put together this free 8-page ‘Guide to selecting manual hydraulic directional control valves’, featuring the 5 most popular valve technologies to help you specify the right valve for your application whether you design, maintain or build hydraulic systems.
