Enerpac RCH306 hydraulic cylinder is a versatile tool designed for lifting and lowering heavy loads and applying pull & push forces with ease using a hydraulic pump. It finds applications in various industries such as offshore, marine, engineering, aerospace, agriculture, oil & gas, mining, and food production.
Working Mechanism:
- Enerpac RCH306 cylinder is an integral component of a hydraulic system that includes a hydraulic cylinder, hydraulic pump, integrated hydraulic valve, and additional system components such as hydraulic couplers, hoses, and gauges.
- When the user activates the hydraulic pump, hydraulic oil is directed into the cylinder, leading to an increase in pressure within the cylinder, ultimately extending the plunger.
- The capacity of the cylinder determines the magnitude of force generated by the system, while the stroke of the cylinder defines the maximum distance the plunger can exert force on the load.
- The type of pump and valve control employed in the system dictate the speed and level of control over the applied force.
Features:
- Enerpac RCH306 hydraulic cylinder has a hollow plunger design that permits push and pull forces.
- It has collar threads to ensure smooth fixturing and a nickel-plated floating centre tube for increasing product life.
- This hydraulic cylinder features a single-acting spring return to improve retraction speed.
- It further features a steel body with baked enamel finish to provide durability and resistance from corrosion.
- This Enerpac hydraulic cylinder comes with a CR400 coupler for use on all Enerpac cylinders and pumps.
