Many applications now demand compact solutions without compromising on power, and 12 volt hydraulic power packs stand out as a prime example of systems that are able to achieve this. Whether it's a 12V power pack from our Compact range or the even smaller and lighter Micro range (ideal for use in small vehicles, boats, small industrial machines), these versatile units provide a reliable power source for a variety of both mobile and stationary applications, catering to various different sectors whether they're used on a boat, for a tipper trailer, or on ramps, lifts and hydraulic presses.
Understanding the core components of a hydraulic power pack is essential for maximising its efficiency. These systems typically consist of an electric motor (AC or DC), a hydraulic gear pump, a reservoir for hydraulic fluid, a compact central manifold and a valve or valves to control fluid flow. Each component plays a vital role in ensuring that the hydraulic power pack operates at peak performance.
At Zeus Hydratech, efficiency starts with design. A well-designed power pack incorporates a motor and pump calibrated to the specific needs of the application, reducing energy waste. Optimal reservoir sizing and informed selection of components contribute to a compact, efficient system that delivers on both performance and energy savings, whilst also making no compromises in the space they take up.
Our range of 12VDC Hydraulic Power Packs (supplied in partnership with Hydronit SRL) can be used with a wide range of reservoirs (also known as tanks). We can offer over twenty-five different options for a tank between the Micro and Compact ranges varying anywhere between a 0.4 litre capacity plastic tank, all the way up to a 25 litre capacity aluminium tank or a 30 litre capacity steel tank.
Above: A selection of the available hydraulic reservoirs (tanks), shown are the 0.4l plastic tank, 1.5l steel tank, 10l steel tank and the 25l aluminum tank.
Optimising a hydraulic system for efficiency requires attention to both the performance of individual components and their interplay. The goal is to achieve maximum power transfer with minimal heat generation and wear. This involves regular maintenance checks, the use of high-grade hydraulic fluid, and ensuring that all connections are secure and leak-free.
The high performance pressure balanced gear pumps, the electrical motors and solenoid valves’ coils have all been specifically designed and optimised for typical 12v hydraulic power pack applications in order to improve the system overall efficiency, increase power density, reducing heat generation and power consumption.
By incorporating cutting-edge technology such as variable speed drives and energy-efficient motors, a 12V hydraulic power pack can reduce operational costs significantly. We also focus on engineering solutions that enable precise control over the power output, ensuring that energy is not expended unnecessarily during system operation.
Every industry has unique requirements, and at Zeus Hydratech, we acknowledge this by offering custom-built power packs tailored to specific operational needs. Understanding application-specific demands allows us to engineer solutions that not only meet but exceed efficiency expectations. Having so many options for customisation of your 12V hydraulic power pack allows the ideal components to be specified to meet the specific needs of your application.
Maintaining peak efficiency over time is reliant on proactive support. Zeus Hydratech offers comprehensive maintenance services, including condition monitoring and predictive maintenance, to ensure your hydraulic power pack continues to operate optimally, preventing downtime and unnecessary repair costs. The units are individually 100% tested before delivery to guarantee leak-free and hassle-free operation during their lifetime. As well as this- all functional components are made with hardened steel parts for heightened reliability and an extended life span.
Efficiency transcends operational cost savings; it's also about environmental stewardship. An increase in overall efficiency & power density going hand in hand with a reduction in heat generation and power consumption all contribute to a more efficient power pack, which in turn is a step forward in reducing our carbon footprint, aligning with global efforts to create greener industrial practices. Hydronit's design and manufacturing processes have a real focus on efficiency, utilising an almost fossil-fuel free factory, powered largely by solar panels located on the roof.
Partnering with Zeus Hydratech means tapping into decades of expertise in hydraulic system design and efficiency optimisation. Our commitment to client success is evident in every custom power pack solution we deliver, ensuring you have the most efficient and reliable system to meet your industry's demands.
