WHAT TOOLS CAN BE POWERED
The PP 418 power pack is equipped with an adjustable flow hydraulic pump which produces hydraulic power more efficiently than a more commonly used fixed displacement gear pump.
The PP 418 power pack is suited to power any hydraulic tool with the following specifications;
Hydraulic valve: | “Open Center” |
Flow Requirement: | 20, 30 or 40 l/min |
Maximum Pressure: | (5, 8 or 10 gal/min) |
140 bar (2000 psi) or higher |
CAUTION
If a tool requires 20 lpm/5 gpm of flow - it SHALL NOT be operated with a higher setting – such as 8 or 10 gal/min. This can cause severe damage to the tool or even personal injury.
Always consult the manufacturer of a tool before hooking it up to the power pack.
Examples of Husqvarna hydraulic tools that can be used with the PP 418 without any modifications:
Hand Saw | K2500 |
Ring Saws | K3500, K3600 |
Core Drill | DM406H |
Wall Saw | WS325 |
Other popular tools are:
Hydraulic Chain Saw
Hydraulic Water Pump
Hydraulic Breaker
If you are unsure of the compatibility of any tool - please consult the tool manufacturer or
Husqvarna Construction Products.
HYDRAULIC HOSES AND COUPLERS
The PP 418 includes a 7.5 m (25 ft) long hose set in a 1/2” (12.7 mm) inside diameter. You can attach ONE additional 1/2” hose of up to 10 m (33 ft) (total of
Maximum hose extension - up to 40 m (130 feet) total distance:
-Use the 7.5 m (25 feet) of hose included with the power pack.
-Make two 16 m (53 ft) extension hoses in a minimum of 5/8” (16 mm) hose diameter.
One 32 m (100 ft) length can also be used - however it is more bulky to handle.
We strongly recommend using HTMA “Flat Face” compatible quick couplers.
CAUTION
The hydraulic hoses and fittings shall have a minimum pressure rating of 140 bar (2000 psi) with a safety factor of 4 to 1.
NOTICE:
The direction of flow through the system is always; male fitting into the female fitting. This means that any extension hoses should be made up the same way. If you have a male fitting in one end of a hose you should always have a female fitting in the opposite end. Never use two fittings of the same gender on the same hose.
CAUTION
The hydraulic oil and therefore the hoses and hydraulic couplers can get scalding hot during normal operation.
A hydraulic coupler at a temperature of 50°C (120°F) will be perceived as HOT to the touch. It is normal that the power pack oil might become as hot as 60°C (145°F) if operated on a very hot day with ambient temperatures exceeding 40°C (104°F).
For reference - a car engine typically operates at 90°C (195°F)
