Selects High Pressure – 3000 PSI or Low Pressure – 650 PSI



The purpose of these pump modules is to provide the high and low hydraulic fluid power pressures required to sustain continuous and ample supply to the various components which position and hold the rolls on the Caster.

Each module contains a pump, motor, directional valves, relief, check valves and pressure switches.



The Pumps are a positive displacement, variable volume, variable pressure, axial piston type with pressure compensating control and two-stage control valve. The pump can deliver 30 GPM (depending on the maximum volume stop) at 1200 RPM at either 650 PSI or 2960 PSI, which are preset on Hi-Lo control valve on pump.



This pump can only rotate in one direction and motor rotation must be checked before coupling to prevent damage to the pump. It is important that the suction valve be wide open and pump housing is filled with fluid before starting pump.



The 4 way, 2 position spring offset solenoid valve provides pilot control for Hi-Lo feature on Delevan pump and also to operate directional valve on low pressure line.

Solenoid Valve & Pilot Operated Slave Valve



When this valve is de-energized, it pressurizes high pressure piston on the Delevan compensator control valve, compressing spring; thereby setting up pump for high pressure.



Also at this time, it shifts directional valve on low pressure line, blocking off flow into low pressure system.



On the Oilgear PVK pumps, the solenoid valve mounted on the pump will control the Hi – Low pressure feature.

The check valves are provided to prevent counter flow from high or low systems when pump in particular module is not running, or prevent backup from accumulator module in case of power failure.



There is a high pressure relief valve set at 3000 PSI to provide protection for the motor and pump. Under normal conditions, this valve is closed and there is no flow. However, if there is a closed discharge shutoff valve or compensator control malfunction on pump, this, valve will vent to tank at 3200 PSI.



There is also a relief valve on low pressure discharge line set approximately 100 PSI above the LP system. This protection is necessary in case blocking valve below it fails to shift when pump is set for high pressure; also if there is a bad check valve in system.



There are two pressure switches which transmit electrical signals back to control panel and are instrumental in setting up machinery to start up other pump modules to satisfy demands of system or pump failure. There is also a pressure gage on pump discharge line to set high and low pressures on pump and for troubleshooting.
