Areas of application for hydraulic hand pumps
Hydraulic hand pumps are used wherever high pressure must be built up independently of power sources and precise control is required. Typical areas of application are:
- Construction industry: lifting and moving heavy components, positioning of precast concrete elements, laying pipelines and bridge construction.
- Workshop and trade: Actuation of lifting platforms, machine jacks, fixing and positioning of workpieces in metal and wood processing.
- Heavy industry: Moving and lifting machinery and equipment, maintenance work.
- Vehicle and aeronautical technology: tipping of truck cabs, moving aircraft parts, emergency operation in the event of failure of automatic hydraulic systems.
- Emergency and rescue technology: Rescue of trapped persons, removal of heavy debris by hydraulic rescue equipment.
- Testing and maintenance work: pressure testing, filling and bleeding of hydraulic systems.
Advantages of Hydraulic Hand Pumps
Hydraulic hand pumps offer numerous advantages:
- Independence from power sources: They work purely manually and can therefore be used anywhere, even in the event of a power failure or in the field.
- High mobility: Compact design and low weight enable easy transport and flexible use.
- Powerful and precise control: They enable heavy loads to be lifted, held and lowered with millimetre precision.
- Robustness and reliability: Hydraulic hand pumps are durable, low maintenance and operate reliably even in extreme conditions.
- Cost-effectiveness: Low maintenance and no operating costs for electricity make them particularly economical.
- Versatility: They can be combined with different hydraulic cylinders and tools and are suitable for a wide range of applications.
- Safety: Built-in pressure relief valves protect against overload and increase occupational safety.
