C04 Minicentraline Berarma

The C04 mini power units are equipped with variable displacement vane pumps with high operating pressure and a hydraulic-type pressure control device, allowing the delivered flow to instantly adjust according to the circuit’s demand.

Variable displacement vane pumps are positive displacement pumps; therefore, they deliver a maximum flow rate equivalent to their displacement multiplied by the rotational speed. The operating pressure is generated by the pressure losses the fluid encounters along its path through the system.

When the outlet pressure (in the system) reaches the pump’s set pressure, the delivered flow automatically adjusts to the system’s demand; once this value is reached, the pump reduces its flow rate down to zero while maintaining an almost constant pressure.

Under zero-demand conditions, the pump only delivers oil to compensate for possible leaks and pilot controls. The integration of a variable displacement vane pump and a hydraulic block enables the design of extremely compact and energy-efficient hydraulic systems in applications where pressure and/or flow control is required.

Description

The C04 Berarma Mini Power Units are equipped with variable displacement vane pumps with high operating pressure, featuring a hydraulic pressure control device that instantly adjusts the delivered flow to the circuit’s demand.
These are positive displacement pumps that provide a maximum flow rate equivalent to displacement times rotational speed. The operating pressure is generated by pressure drops in the system. When the outlet pressure reaches the setpoint, the flow adapts to the demand, down to zero, maintaining constant pressure. In the absence of demand, the pump only delivers oil to compensate for leaks and pilot controls.

This series is designed to meet energy-saving and noise-reduction requirements in compact hydraulic systems that use fixed displacement external gear pumps. The declared advantages include:

  • Reduction of the number of components in the system

  • Reduction of electric power consumption

  • Reduction of oil heating

  • Reduction or elimination of heat exchangers

  • Significant noise reduction

Equipment and Options

  • Installation kit for main IEC motors form B14

  • Connections to standardized valve blocks (special versions available)

  • Maximum flow regulator to mechanically reduce displacement

  • Hydraulic, electric, and load-sensing control devices for flow/pressure regulation

  • Different types of seals depending on fluid and temperature

Main Technical Data

  • Maximum operating pressure: 210 bar (peaks >30% to be avoided)
