Power unit
The Vickers System-Pak and Value-Pak hydraulic power units use SAE straight-thread porting throughout the units for minimizing leakage. Oiled and pickled reservoirs also minimize internal rust and contamination that cause leaks. All power units are equipped with continuous-duty rated motors for 24/7 operation.

Brake
The PFS200 pneumatic, spring-applied, caliper disk brake applies a minimum constant air pressure of 85 psi, keeping the Belleville disk springs energized. At a sudden loss of pressure, energy stored in the disk spring stack expands and brakes the load. The PFS200 can brake on a disk up to 16 inches in diameter. It has a maximum tangential force of 930 lbs at full pad wear. Using a 16-inch diameter disk at full pad wear produces 6,705 inch-lbs of braking torque.

Control valve
The Type 2031 diaphragm valve is used in conjunction with sensors and a PLC in continuous control process applications such as pollution control, chemical processing, water treatment, and textile dying. The diaphragm between the valve body and actuator hermetically seals the fluid from the actuator. The 2031 can be retrofitted with electrical-position feedback, ASI-connection, stroke-limitation, and manual-override accessories.

Pump
Engineered to ANSI B73.3M standards, the Texel® MTA Series Pump offers a close-coupled design for standard C-face motors. A non-metallic containment shell prevents hysteresis losses, and the inclusion of high-strength, rare-earth magnets provide efficient, no-slip drive. The pump family produces flow rates to 320 gpm and maximum working pressures to 150 psi maximum. The pumps are lined with chemically inert, virgin PFA.
