A diesel driven hydraulic power pack is a unit that delivers pressurized oil for driving hydraulic motors or cylinders. A diesel engine is the prime mover. The hydraulic power pack is mostly delivered in combination with hydraulic driven pumps. Via hoses or piping the pressurized oil is transported to the hydraulic driven pump. By adjusting the flow of the power pack the speed of the hydraulic pump can be adjusted. It is also possible to drive multiple pumps with one hydraulic power pack. In that case a proportional valve is required to adjust the speed of the individual pumps.
Power packs can be delivered in almost any size: from 10 kW to 1000 kW. The configurations of the units can be adjusted to client’s requirements and budget.
Hydraulic driven power packs can be delivered with an ATEX certificate which is needed when pumping in a explosive environment.
