Hydraulic Power Packs
Function:
A complete hydraulic drive system from SCHRODER HYDRAULICS Drives comprises the Power unit with electric motor, pump and tank, the control system, the hydraulic motor and the piping system. The power unit type HPU is described in this publication and uses a closed loop hydraulic system to provide a highly dynamic drive system. We have expertise to build custom built hydraulic power units.
In most offerings, all items except the piping and hydraulic motor are housed in a sound insulated cabinet. The swash plate pump is driven by an electric motor running efficiently at fixed speed.
The oil flow from the pump is determined by the swash-plate angle, which is controlled by a signal from the control system. Starting in an unloaded, neutral condition, the system ramps the flow up to the required direction and rate and pressure is determined by the load up to the limit set at the compensator. If pressure reaches compensator setting the pump will destroke, stopping the drive, so eliminating heat buildup but maintaining the set pressure and therefore torque at the drive. The pump will stay in this condition until the system is unloaded where upon the pump will immediately ramp up to the set Flow rate or until the control is adjusted. The pump and the hydraulic motor are connected together by flexible hoses and piping if necessary.
At the motor the oil is distributed through the valve plate to the pistons in the cylinder block 50% of them with high pressure and 50% with charge pressure. The oil pressure forces the piston assemblies radially outwards against the cam-ring. This produces a balanced and smooth rotation with extremely high torque which drives the machine. The speed of the motor is controlled by the flow of oil from the pump. Drive motor speed is therefore proportional to the swash plate angle of the pump.If the swash plate is controlled over-centre, the flow is reversed and the motor direction is therefore reversed.
Both the hydraulic motor and the pump have a very low moment of inertia, which makes it possible to change speed and stop or reverse direction quickly.
A proportion of the return flow is used to provide oil conditioning by cooling and filtering. The oil in the motor and pump case which provides lubrication and local cooling is fed back to tank via an adequately sized drain line.
MAIN COMPONENTS:
2.ELECTRICMOTOR: An electric motor is an electromechanical device that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. The electric motors that we use have high efficiency and are also extremely reliable. They are started with no load and run optimally at fixed speed.
3.SERVO FILTER: The oil filters are dimensioned for oils with high viscosity and a high degree of contamination separation. Servo filter can be supplied as an option, allowing you to replace filters during operation.
4. PUMP: The hydraulic pumps are of the variable displacement axial piston type with very fast acting pressure compensator override. This virtually eliminates overloads and is a major factor in system reliability. All control valves are built in to keep pipe work to an absolute minimum. The electro-hydraulic stroke provides variable flow by smoothly controlling the swash plate and there by pumps displacement.

Choose the best method of your application
A system of few components, but many combinations and configurations, to provide any solution for the SCHRODER
HYDRAULICS drives performance range. The perfect load sharing characteristics enables multi-pump and/or multimotor combinations to suit the
application.
User friendly - pressure and flow and therefore torque, speed and hence power can be adjusted. It is easy
to upgrade to suit changing production demands. This versatility can transform a machine into an intelligent high production unit.
Features such as extremely fast pump compensators to give fast response and reduce stresses and strains on the machine,load sensing and
power limiting enable functionality unavailable from other ssystems.
The ability to split the drive from the power unit enables freedom of application. The power unit can be
positioned away from the machine without foundation requirements.
The unit is easy to install, it is fully function tested before delivery and takes a short time to
commission. Installation can be under taken usually during a normal shutdown period so no production losses are experienced.
IMPROVING THE WORK ENVIRONMENT:
Six routines must be followed in order to minimize the chances of your hydraulic equipment suffering costly, premature component failures and unscheduled downtime:
The sound can be divided into three basic kinds:-
HYDRAULIC SYSTEM NOISES:-
Which focuses on the reduction of noise from individual component like hose, control valve, pump mounts and fixtures .This can be accomplished by a suitable design modification of the component so that it radiates least amount of noise.
Six routines must be followed in order to minimize the chances of your hydraulic equipment suffering costly, premature component failures and unscheduled downtime:
- Maintain fluid cleanliness.
- Maintain fluid temperature and viscosity with in optimum limits.
- Maintain hydraulic system settings to manufacturers' specifications
- Schedule component change - outs before they fail.
- Follow correct commissioning procedures.
- Conduct failure analysis.
The sound can be divided into three basic kinds:-
- Structured Borne Sound - (From the instance ofa pump)
- Air Borne Sounds - (From a Cooling FanorAiroil cooler.)
- Fluid Borne Sounds - (From Pump or Motor as pulsation in the oil flow).
