We design and manufacture advanced Direct Current (DC) motor hydraulic power units, engineered to deliver reliable, efficient hydraulic power in mobile, remote, or off-grid applications where AC mains are unavailable or impractical. Our DC hydraulic power units are precision-built for compactness, portability, and robust duty cycles—making them the ideal solution for material handling, vehicle-mounted systems, lifts, emergency equipment, and industrial automation.

What is a DC Motor Hydraulic Power Unit?

A DC motor hydraulic power unit consists of a high-efficiency, low-voltage electric motor (most commonly 12VDC or 24VDC), a hydraulic pump (gear, vane, or piston type), reservoir, control valves, and all relevant hydraulic, electrical, and electronic components, integrated into a compact assembly. Unlike AC-driven systems, DC units offer true independence from fixed electrical infrastructure, enabling operation from batteries, vehicle power, or renewable energy sources.

Key Technical Features

• DC Electric Motor Options
  • Available in 12V, 24V, and sometimes 48V DC configurations.
  • Power outputs typically range from 0.35 kW up to 2.2 kW per motor, or higher for custom designs.
  • Options for permanent magnet or series wound motors, with CCW/CW rotation as required.
  • Motors are rated for intermittent (S2/S3 duty) with startup surges, optimized for use in automotive, industrial, or mobile equipment.
• Hydraulic Pump Specifications
  • Gear pumps provide flows from approx. 0.2 to 7.8 cc/rev, supporting typical output flows from 0.3 L/min to 10+ L/min.
  • System pressure capabilities up to 207–300 bar (3,000–4,350 psi), with adjustable relief valves to protect the circuit.
• Tank and Reservoir
  • Integral or remote reservoirs sized to match required duty cycle and flow—typically 2 to 7.5 liters, but available up to 180 liters for large custom units.
  • Integrated oil filters, breathers/fill caps, and oil level/temperature gauges for clean and reliable operation.
• Controls & Valves
  • Manual or solenoid-operated directional valves for single/double-acting cylinder operation.
  • Optional remote pendant or wireless control, timed run logic, load holding valves, and proportional flow/pressure control.
• Electrical Protection & Safety
  • IP54 or higher protection for all electrical components.
  • Overload, over-temperature, and short circuit protection built-in.
  • Suitable for safe vehicle, trailer, or field mounting.
• Construction & Integration
  • Compact and ruggedized steel, aluminum, or ABS enclosures; corrosion protection as required.
  • Mounting flexibility (base, side, upright) for integration within machinery, vehicles, or mobile power packs.

Manufacturing Process Overview

1. Application Engineering & Sizing
   
   
   • Duty cycle, load, flow, and pressure requirements specified; battery sizing and charge cycle analysis.
   • 3D CAD modeling for space optimization and specification compliance.
2. Component Sourcing
   • Selection of branded high-torque DC motors, sealed hydraulic pumps, and top-grade valves and electronic control solutions, ensuring safety and lifetime reliability.
3. Precision Assembly/Integration
   • CNC machining of motor brackets, pump adapters, and tank flanges for warping resistance and alignment.
   • Assembly in cleanroom conditions, with careful torque control, crimped terminals, and full hose/pipeline leak testing.
4. Functional Testing
   
   
   • Hydraulic performance (flow, pressure, response time) is validated under simulated real-world loads.
   • Electrical testing for start/run current, protection trip, and temperature rise.
5. Final QC & Documentation
   • Units supplied with connection diagrams, safety warnings, duty limits, and performance certification.
