Product catalog summary
Introduction
The document outlines the technical specifications and instructions for the Kappa 40 and Kappa 40 Plus hydraulic gear pumps and motors by CASAPPA S.p.A., intended for heavy-duty applications in sectors like construction, mining, and agriculture.
Specifications
  • Displacements: Kappa 40 ranges from 61.43 cm³/rev to 150.79 cm³/rev; Kappa 40 Plus ranges up to 180.73 cm³/rev.
  • Pressure: Maximum constant operating pressure is 240 bar for Kappa 40 and 260 bar for Kappa 40 Plus, with peak pressures of 280 bar and 300 bar respectively.
  • Speed: Both models have a maximum speed of 2800 min-1.
Instructions
  • Installation: Ensure proper alignment of shafts and use flexible couplings to prevent axial or radial loads.
  • Tank and Lines: Ensure adequate tank capacity to prevent overheating and use lines with diameters at least as large as the ports.
  • Hydraulic Fluid: Use specified viscosity fluids and avoid mixing oils.
  • Filters: Filter system flow according to contamination class specifications.
  • Storage: Store in a dry environment between 5°C and 20°C.
  • Starting Up: Tighten all connections and clean the system before gradually increasing pressure and speed.
Features
  • Construction: Kappa 40 features external gear pumps and motors; Kappa 40 Plus is for heavy-duty use.
  • Mounting: Available with European and SAE standard flanges.
  • Fluid Compatibility: Compatible with mineral oil-based and fire-resistant fluids.
Performance Curves
Performance curves detail flow, torque, power, and efficiency for both gear pumps and motors.
Ordering Information
Instructions for ordering single and multiple pumps, including common inlet configurations, are provided.
Performance Overview
The document includes performance curves and specifications for pressure, power, torque, and flow rates under various conditions, with performance curves obtained at 50°C using oil with a viscosity of 46 cSt at 40°C.
Dimensions
Dimensions for single units with side and rear ports are detailed, with measurements in millimeters and inches for various models.
Multiple Pumps
KAPPA series pumps can be combined, with the section requiring the most power placed at the drive shaft end. Performance is similar to single pumps, but pressure is limited by the transmissible torque of the drive and connecting shafts.
Key Recommendations
  • Place the section with the highest power requirement at the drive shaft end when coupling multiple pumps.
  • Consult the pre-sales department for applications with common inlets.
Torque Specifications
The sum of torques from all single stages must not exceed the maximum torque limit for the shaft of the first pump. For multiple pumps with more than two sections, a bracket is recommended. Maximum torque for Kappa 40 is 600 Nm, and for Kappa 40 Plus, it is 900 Nm.
Drive Shafts and Mounting Flanges
Details on drive shafts and mounting flanges are provided, specifying compatibility and available combinations.
Ports Availability
Ports are available in split, gas, and SAE types, with detailed port positions and types for both Kappa 40 and Kappa 40 Plus.
Additional Recommendations
For applications with radial and low axial load on the drive shaft, version 6 is recommended. For applications without radial and axial load, version 0 is suitable.
Additional Information
The document includes tightening torque specifications for low and high-pressure side ports, with specific values for different port sizes and types.

In applications where the input power requirement of each section varies, the section with the greater requirement must be at the drive shaft end, and progressively smaller to the rear. Features and performances are the same as the corresponding single pumps, but pressures must be limited by the transmissible torque of the drive and connecting shafts. To have appropriate data, use the formula below. The maximum rotational speed is that of the lowest rated speed of the single...
