Note:
The remote installation location of the hydraulic power unit can also help address concerns with
hydraulic fl uid temperature ranges. For example if the equipment is purchased with a remote power unit,
the power unit can be installed in a warmer (indoor) location. In this arrangement, even though the main
equipment and it’s hydraulic components maybe exposed to more extreme temperatures, the hydraulic
power unit and the hydraulic fl uid stored in it will be exposed to and therefore absorb the more moderate and
desirable internal temperature. During operation the oil in the power unit will quickly mix with the oil in the
equipment and will typically mix to a more desirable temperature level.
Note:
If the hydraulic power unit is installed in a pit, as is usually the case for dock levelers, the pit will have
moderating eff ect on the temperature the hydraulic power unit is exposed to. This should be part of the
consideration of hydraulic fl uid selection.
