PUMP STATION 4-FUNCTION Mk2 BLACK

PUMP STATION 4-FUNCTION Mk2 BLACK

CONTROL PANELS

Available for single function or 4-functions.
• The panels have a Dual Action function which means the pump is active both when pushing and when pulling the handle.
• An adjustable relief valve prevents overload.
• A 2-speed function permits fast tensioning until a pre-set pressure is obtained. Then the panel shifts down to low speed and reduced resistance in the handle. The level of pressure needed to gear down is easily adjusted to suit the individual trimmer.
• The panels can be connected to an electric pump station that replaces manual pumping with the push of a button.
• The panels are black anodized or clear anodized aluminium.

These functions are connected to a control panel permanently mounted in the cockpit. The control panel consists of a manual pump, a needle valve that releases the pressure and a selector valve with which you decide which function you want to activate.
The pump draws oil from a tank and delivers it at high pressure to the cylinder. When the pressure is released, the cylinder is emptied and the oil returns to the tank.
The closed system thus consists of a low pressure side between tank and control panel and a high pressure side between control panel and cylinder.
