ENERPAC RCH120 Single Acting Hydraulic Ram, Steel Body, 12 Tons, 10000 PSI

Enerpac RCH120 hollow plunger hydraulic cylinder is used in construction, manufacturing and maintenance applications for lifting heavy loads, pulling or pushing objects and generating controlled force.

Working Mechanism:

• The hydraulic fluid enters the extended side of the hollow plunger hydraulic cylinder.
• The pressurised hydraulic fluid acts on the piston, causing it to move in the direction of extension.
• The movement of the piston pushes the hollow plunger, extending it outward from the cylinder.
• The extended plunger generates linear force or motion, which can be harnessed for lifting, pushing or other specific tasks.
• To retract the plunger, the hydraulic fluid is released from the extended side of the cylinder, allowing the plunger to return to its original position.

Features:

• This unit further features collar threads, making fixturing quick and easy, simplifying installation and use.
• It offers a single-acting spring return mechanism to ensure efficient and reliable performance.
• This unit is equipped with a hollow plunger design, allowing it to generate both pull and push forces for enhanced versatility in various applications.
• It features baked enamel finish that provides increased resistance against corrosion, ensuring its longevity even in challenging environments.
• This unit is equipped with the AR630 coupler that allows for convenient & secure attachment of the hydraulic cylinder, ensuring reliable and efficient operation.
• It has a nickel-plated, floating centre tube implemented on models over 20 tons, which enhance the cylinder lifespan by providing increased durability & protection against wear & tear.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. What is the difference between a single-acting cylinder and a double-acting cylinder?

A. A single-acting cylinder has one hydraulic port and needs an external force to move back, while a double-acting cylinder has two hydraulic ports and can move in both directions using pressurised fluid.

Q. What are the factors to consider while selecting this single-acting hollow-plunger hydraulic cylinder?

A.

• Lifting capacity
• Maximum operating pressure
• Stroke length
• Mounting options

Q. How to maintain this single-acting hollow-plunger hydraulic cylinder?

A.

• Regularly inspect the cylinder for any signs of damage, leaks, or wear.
• Clean the cylinder by wiping it down with a clean cloth.
