Dowty Hand Pump
The DOWTY HAND PUMP is a durable and efficient manually operated hydraulic pump designed for reliable pressure generation in various industrial applications. Built with rugged construction and precision components, it delivers smooth operation and consistent output, typically up to around 200–210 bar. Its compact design, ease of use, and low maintenance make it ideal for applications such as lifting, testing, clamping, and maintenance tasks where manual hydraulic control is required.
- Operating Pressure : High Performance Range
- Application : Industrial & Mobile Systems
About this item
A Dowty hand pump isa manual hydraulic pump used to generate high-pressure fluid for industrial, maintenance, and emergency backup tasks. It is highly valued for its independence from electrical power, making it ideal for remote or on-site fieldwork.
Key Specifications & Features
- Pressure Capacity: Typically capable of generating up to 3000 PSI (207 bar), with some heavy-duty industrial models reaching 350 bar.
- Flow & Displacement: Common delivery is approximately 0.80 in³ per double stroke (roughly 1.3 to 1.8 LPM).
- Construction: Usually features a rugged aluminium or mild steel body with a durable steel handle (approx. 350 mm) for mechanical advantage.
- Reservoir Options: Available with or without an integrated tank; a standard reservoir capacity is about 3.4 litres (6 pints).
- Mounting:Â Designed for standard base mounting, often recommended for vertical installation.
Common Application
- Lifting & Jacking:Â Powering hydraulic jacks or lifting cylinders for heavy machinery.
- Industrial Clamping:Â Providing pressure for clamping devices in workshops.
- Emergency Backup:Â Serving as a standby source for hydraulic systems when electrical or engine-driven pumps fail.
- Testing & Calibration:Â Used for hydrostatic testing of pipelines and calibrating hydraulic equipment.
