The ELCO hydraulic vane and variable, open loop axial piston pump ranges will maintain the Ernest Lowe reputation for quality and reliability while delivering affordability as well.
Quiet and efficient vane pumps come in a range of sizes - as well as single, double and triple pump models. Mountings are flanged SAE, with VEL 1 and VEL 2 models available as BSP, NPT or SAE thread. High-pressure pumps are available on request.
ELCO variable displacement axial piston pumps are designed for open loop hydraulic systems. Precision built and interchangeable, they are supplied with load sensing, pressure, remote pressure or torque limiter control. Flow is proportional to drive speed and the flow may be smoothly varied by adjusting the position of the swash plates.
Features include:
* Maximum stop adjustment.
* Long service life.
* Low noise level.
* Wide range of controls.
* SAE mounting flange and shaft.
* Flange connection SAE.
* Two case drain connections.
* Continuous operation pressure of 28 MPa.
Ernest Lowe is also the local agent for Linde products.
