Hydraulic Pump Selection Guide

Product catalog summary
Hydraulic Pump Selection Guide Overview
This guide offers detailed information on selecting hydraulic-driven centrifugal pumps for agricultural tractors, including specifications, performance tips, and selection criteria based on tractor models and hydraulic systems.
Model 9303C-HM4C Cutaway View
A cutaway view of the Model 9303C-HM4C pump is provided, highlighting key components such as the outlet port, stainless steel wear ring, and inlet port, aiding in understanding the pump's construction.
Performance Tips
  • Minimize Hydraulic Motor Back Pressure: Reduce back pressure by using a free dump return port, increasing quick coupler size, and ensuring proper return hose diameter.
  • Hydraulic Filter Maintenance: Regular filter changes prevent pressure drops and maintain performance.
  • Hydraulic Test Kit Usage: Hypro's test kit measures hydraulic back pressure, system pressure, and flow for diagnostics.
  • Bypass Screw Adjustment: Adjust the bypass screw for Open Center systems as per the manual; Closed Center systems require it fully turned in.
  • On/Off Operation: Use rate controllers for nozzle control to prevent seal damage from trapped pressure.
Pump Selection
Hypro offers pumps in various sizes and materials, including Polypropylene, Cast Iron, and 316 Stainless Steel, with a chart for selecting pumps based on hydraulic flow ranges and system types.
Hydraulic System Types
  • Constant Displacement Pumps: Provide constant flow, with variation achieved by changing engine speed.
  • Variable Displacement Pumps: Adjust flow based on demand, maintaining constant pressure and flow.
Hydraulic Controls and System Types
Details on Open Center and Closed Center systems, including operation and correct spool valve positions to prevent motor damage.
Hydraulic Plumbing Considerations
Proper hydraulic plumbing is crucial to avoid increased return circuit pressure, affecting pump performance.
Overview: This document details hydraulic systems and specifications for tractor models from manufacturers like WILDCAT, STEIGER, VALTRA, VERSATILE, and WHITE, including system pressure, flow rates, and pump model recommendations.
Key Sections:
  • Specifications: Lists tractor models with hydraulic system types, maximum system pressure, and flow rates, recommending specific HYPRO pump models based on performance needs.
  • Code Key: Provides a code key for interpreting recommendations and explains the Load Sensing (LS) hydraulic system, advising a priority circuit for hydraulic motors.
  • Manufacturer-Specific Notes: Includes notes on auxiliary coolers for continuous duty equipment, flow control adjustability, and special plumbing instructions for certain models.
  • Contact Information: Concludes with Hypro technical support and customer service contact details for further assistance.
Critical Information: Emphasizes the importance of correct hydraulic system setup for optimal performance and avoiding equipment damage, highlighting the necessity of auxiliary coolers for continuous duty applications and specific instructions for unique model requirements.

The Raise position is not recommended for OnӔbecause the valve must travel through the Neutralposition to get to Float.System Types: Hydraulic Plumbing: Do Not Remove Check Valve. There are three types of hydraulic systems used on tractors.One utilizes a constant displacement pump and iscalled an Open Center System because of the spool valve employed.The other two use a variable displacement pump and are known as Closed Center (Pressure Compensated) Systems or Closed Center Load Sensing Systems based on the type of spool valve and system operation.Open Center systems, while having constant displacement...
