ENERPAC P842 Hydraulic Hand Pump, Two Speed, 10000 psi, 155 Cubic Inch

Enerpac P842 hydraulic hand pump provides portable and manual hydraulic power for lifting heavy loads, powering hydraulic tools, operating hydraulic presses and performing maintenance and repair work where access to electricity may be limited or where manual operation is preferred.

Working Mechanism:

• A hydraulic hand pump includes a reservoir to store hydraulic fluid.
• The pump contains a piston and cylinder assembly for generating pressure.
• A hand lever is used to manually operate the pump.
• Pushing down the hand lever creates a low-pressure area, allowing hydraulic fluid to be drawn into the cylinder through an intake valve.
• Pulling the hand lever up compresses the hydraulic fluid, increasing its pressure and closing the intake valve.
• The pump is equipped with a pressure outlet to connect to a hydraulic system.
• A check valve prevents the backflow of fluid from the cylinder to the pump.
• The hand lever can be repeatedly pumped to generate a continuous flow of high-pressure hydraulic fluid.

Features:

• It features a lightweight and compact design for easy portability and manoeuvrability in various work environments.
• This hydraulic pump comes with a durable glass-filled nylon reservoir and nylon-encapsulated aluminium pump base for enhanced corrosion resistance.
• It offers two-speed operation for reduced handle strokes by up to 78% compared to single-speed pumps to increase efficiency and reduce operator effort.
• This hand pump is equipped with lower handle effort to minimise operator fatigue and ensure a comfortable working experience.
• It offers a handle lock and lightweight construction for easy carrying and secure storage during transport or when not in use.
• This pump has large oil capacities that enable it to power various hydraulic cylinders or tools, providing versatility for different applications.
• It further features a non-conductive fibreglass handle for the operator's safety in electrical or hazardous environments.
• This hydraulic pump is integrated with an internal pressure relief valve which offers overload protection by automatically releasing excess pressure.
