Enerpac’s New Battery Torque Wrench Pump

Enerpac now offers a new battery torque wrench pump – the XC-Series Cordless Torque Wrench Pump. It’s ideal for remote or hard-to-access locations that require the lightweight portability of a battery pump. The 28V 5Ah lithium-ion battery eliminates the need for air hoses, generators, or extension cords and provides excellent run time. With the brushless DC motor, less maintenance is required and motor life is extended – saving your team time and money. Also, the operator can easily set the pressure and operate in manual or auto cycle mode with the interactive pendant. Contact your Price Engineering representative to see how the XC Torque Wrench Pump can help you.

New Battery Powered Pump – Enerpac’s ZC Series

Enerpac now offers a new cordless pump solution – the ZC-Series. This cordless solution is ideal for applications where emissions and noise are a concern or when external power sources, such as electricity and air, aren’t available. With its 1.4hp brushless DC motor and 82V 4ah lithium ion battery, it has the power to drive higher flow applications while still offering portability in the field. The ZC-Series combines the performance of an electric pump with the convenience of a battery pump. Contact Price Engineering, a SunSource Company, today to see how the ZC-Series can help you.

New Enerpac DuroTech Series

Air Drive Power Unit Build for High-Use Applications

Menomonee Falls, WI—Enerpac, an international market leader in high-pressure hydraulics, introduces its new, durable air-driven power unit technology built for high-cycle industrial applications. The DuroTech™-Series is well-suited for use in production applications  offering a durable dual ram pump with a steel reservoir and protective steel shroud.

DuroTech pumps have a long-life and are fully serviceable. The dual ram pump action offers high-oil capacity and automatic pressure control. Additionally, it requires no air lubrication, runs cool, and has reduced noise levels. “One key feature to this product is the reciprocating, dual ram piston pump,” said Douglas Lacina, the Enerpac Workholding Commercial and Engineering Leader.  “Every time the piston moves it creates flow, meaning less reciprocating versus single ram systems for more flow and longer life.”   

 “Shop air is connected to the built-in pressure regulator where the operator can adjust the air pressure, in turn setting the maximum hydraulic oil pressure. The air is ported through a built-in air shut-off valve to the air pump. With the air shut-off valve open, the pump automatically turns on and off to obtain and then maintain the customer selected hydraulic pressure,” added Douglas Lacina.

Key features include:

  • Extremely durable pump element
  • Four-station DO3 manifold with cover plates for unused stations
  • Air filter/regulator with built-in air pressure gauge
  • 8-gallon all metal reservoir with easy-access drain plug
  • Easy-to-read oil level sight glass

“ The DuroTech™-Series is available in 3 air/oil ratio sizes, and offers the flexibility of the industry standard DO3 manifold, allowing customers many options and accessories to create a system that perfectly fits their needs,” said Douglas Lacina.
