We fabricate single-acting hand pump here in Taman Perindustrian Puchong.
Hydraulic hand pumps are manual devices used to generate hydraulic pressure. They are often categorized into two types based on their operation: single-acting and double-acting pumps.
Single-Acting Hydraulic Hand Pump
- Operation: A single-acting hydraulic hand pump generates pressure and fluid flow only in one direction. When the handle is pumped, fluid is pushed out of the pump and into the hydraulic system. When the handle is released, the pump resets but does not draw fluid back in the reverse direction.
- Application: Typically used in applications where hydraulic power is needed in one direction only, such as in simple lifting or clamping operations.
Maximum flow rate 28MPA or 280 bar.
Double-Acting Hydraulic Hand Pump
- Operation: A double-acting hydraulic hand pump can generate hydraulic pressure in both directions. It pumps fluid both when the handle is pushed and pulled, providing continuous pressure and flow in both directions.
- Application: Ideal for systems that require hydraulic power in both directions, such as in systems that need to extend and retract a hydraulic cylinder with the same pump.
Key Differences
- Efficiency: Double-acting pumps are generally more efficient for operations requiring back-and-forth movement because they provide pressure on both strokes of the handle.
- Complexity: Double-acting pumps are slightly more complex and can handle more demanding tasks compared to single-acting pumps.
- A double-acting pump is not automatically twice as fast as a single-acting pump, but it is more efficient because it delivers hydraulic power in both strokes of the handle (both push and pull). This continuous delivery of fluid can make the operation smoother and, in some cases, faster, depending on the system’s design and requirements.
If you’re choosing between a single-acting and a double-acting hydraulic hand pump, the choice depends on your specific application. For tasks that only require pressure in one direction, a single-acting pump is sufficient. For operations requiring pressure in both directions, a double-acting pump is the better option.
