Single Action Power Unit Simple Effect

The Single Action Power Unit is a compact, self-contained hydraulic system engineered specifically for applications that require unidirectional movement. This type of unit is widely used in machinery where hydraulic force is needed in one direction—typically to lift, push, or extend—and where gravity or a return spring brings the actuator back to its original position. Its simple yet robust design makes it ideal for mobile and industrial settings where durability, reliability, and low maintenance are essential.

This power unit is particularly suited for tipper trailers, tail lifts, agricultural implements, small presses, and material handling equipment, where consistent hydraulic force is needed for a single motion cycle. It operates efficiently with a 12V or 24V DC motor, making it perfect for vehicles or equipment with onboard power sources. Thanks to its compact dimensions, the unit can be integrated into tight spaces without sacrificing performance.

Manufactured with high-quality components, the Single Action Power Unit ensures long-term operation even under demanding conditions. The system typically includes a hydraulic pump, reservoir (commonly from 4 to 6 liters), motor, and solenoid valve, all pre-assembled for easy installation and immediate use. Its maximum operating pressure can reach up to 220 bar, with flow rates that support a wide range of single-acting hydraulic cylinders.

Whether you’re upgrading existing machinery or building new systems, this unit provides an efficient and cost-effective solution for hydraulic actuation in one direction. With its user-friendly configuration, long service life, and proven performance, the Single Action Power Unit is an excellent choice for both mobile and stationary hydraulic applications.

Key Features of the Single Action Power Unit

• Type: Single acting (extends hydraulically, returns via spring or gravity)
• Voltage Options: Available in 12V DC or 24V DC versions
• Tank Capacity: Typically from 4 to 6 liters, depending on the model
• Maximum Pressure: Up to 220 bar
• Flow Rate: Up to 8 liters per minute (2.1 GPM)
• Applications: Ideal for tipper trailers, tail lifts, small presses, and mobile hydraulic systems

Advantages

• Energy Efficient: Power is only required during the extension phase, reducing energy consumption
• Compact and Durable Design: Engineered to withstand demanding working conditions
• Low Maintenance: Fewer components compared to double-acting units means less wear and servicing
• Easy Integration: Ready to connect to most hydraulic cylinders with minimal setup

This unit is ideal for users seeking a simple yet effective solution for lifting or movement in one direction, without the need for complex hydraulic controls.
