Product catalog summary
Overview: This document outlines the technical specifications and operational guidelines for HYDRO LEDUC's variable displacement micropumps and micro-hydraulic motors, focusing on the PBV and PVE series pumps and the MH450 DS motor. It covers pump characteristics, operational procedures, and installation recommendations.
Specifications:
  • Pumps: The PBV and PVE series are variable displacement pumps with rotation speeds of 3150-3500 rpm, displacement range, and maximum pressure of 250-350 bar. The PVE series allows user-adjustable settings.
  • Motors: The MH450 DS motor supports dual direction rotation (CW and CCW) with a maximum speed of 6500 rpm and a displacement range of 463 mm3, operating under a maximum pressure of 400 bar.
Operational Guidelines:
  • Temperature and Fluids: Pumps can operate up to 200°C, and motors up to 175°C for short periods. Compatible fluids include mineral, synthetic, and biodegradable oils with specific viscosity requirements.
  • Installation: Proper installation requires component cleanliness, correct fluid selection, and adherence to recommended drive modes. Rotation direction must be verified before operation.
Graphs and Data: The document includes graphs showing power consumption and flow rates relative to outlet pressure, and torque and speed characteristics for motors, based on controlled laboratory tests.
Accessories and Customization: HYDRO LEDUC offers accessories like check and relief valves with specific pressure and flow characteristics. Custom solutions are available for mechanical, hydraulic, and electrical integration.
Installation and Start-up Recommendations: Before using micropumps, storage fluid should be emptied and replaced with appropriate hydraulic fluid. Fluid cleanliness is crucial, and guidelines for installation positions and supply line configurations are provided to ensure optimal performance.
Introduction: HYDRO LEDUC specializes in micro-hydraulics for compact spaces and challenging environments, offering axial and radial piston pumps, micro-hydraulic motors, and integrated units.
Start-up Procedures: Ensure the pump is filled with oil and the circuit is bled before starting. Key steps include positioning inlet ports upwards, displacing air pockets, starting at low speed, and gradually applying load. Self-priming systems are available for challenging conditions.
Inspection and Maintenance: During start-up, check for consistent oil flow and ensure the fluid is not emulsified. Fluid should be changed every 500 to 1000 hours based on contamination levels.
Product Offerings: HYDRO LEDUC provides fixed and variable displacement pumps, hydraulic motors, piston pumps for trucks, and hydro-pneumatical accumulators.
Contact Information: Offices are located in France, Germany, Sweden, and the USA, with detailed contact information available on their website.

ADJUSTABLE PUMPS (with factory set adjustment) The displacement of PBV pumps is adjustable as a function of outlet pressure, in order to limit power consumption. When outlet pressure is low, the pump operates at maximum flow. When outlet pressure increases, pump displacement and flow gradually decrease (see graphs on page 12). 10 ■Characteristics Type of pump Direction of rotation nominal permis- sible continuous operating...
