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.
