Hydraulic unit of the HCU series

The hydraulic unit HCU is based on a flexible modular system and enables different requirements to be implemented with a generic manifold for each size.

The compact and lightweight housing reduces installation space requirements. The optimised hydraulic design and innovative valve technology also reduce system complexity and power consumption. Demand-based control of the motor and valves, combined with intelligent holding current reduction, improves energy efficiency and reduces thermal load.

Serviceability and ease of installation are enhanced by externally accessible pressure relief valves, a split housing design and flexible cable routing. The mirror-image configuration enables easy adaptation to different installation conditions.

A high-performance filtration system protects the hydraulic oil against particle contamination and ensures reliable operation of the brake calipers.

Hydraulic unit of the HCU series:

• Modular system: Virtually all functions can be implemented for each frame size; functional scope is defined by the configuration of components.
• Compact, weight-optimized design: Reduced overall height and optimized wall thicknesses minimize installation space and weight.
• Hydraulic design: Robust valve technology enables high-performance pressure control.
• Optimized operation: Intelligent component control reduces thermal stress and energy consumption.
• Ease of installation: Assembly possible without removing the frame or cover; externally adjustable pressure relief valves.
• Accessibility and flexible integration: Two-part hood for simplified installation, flexible line connections, and a design that allows for mirroring.
• High-performance filter system: An optimized filtration and ventilation concept ensures long-term high oil quality and excellent system efficiency
