For XPi pump applications where the pump is driven by a continuous running PTO (PTO which cannot be disengaged), this solution allows the continuous running of the pump.
- Without creating problems of fluid overheating
- Without affecting pump service life
- With no modifications necessary to the hydraulic circuit of the equipment.
The by-pass is a 24 Volts solenoid valve.
When not activated, it enables pump output to link up to pump inlet.
When it is activated, the pump operates normally (output flow).
A drain line had to be installed between the by-pass valve and the hydraulic tank of the vehicle to ensure sufficient oil circulation and a good cooling into the pump. In any case, the connection to the tank must be done below the oil level.
