5.4 Connection of Additional Torque Wrenches
Hi-Force TPA-A Pumps are equipped with additional ports allowing for up to 4 Torque wrenches to be driven
simultaneously (all operating at the same pressure).
This feature can be useful for even tightening of large joints. However, it must be noted that multiple torque
wrenches will operate slower than a single torque wrench would, so this is not necessarily a time-saving
method.
To make use this feature,
Switch off the pump and disconnect from the air supply.
Remove the relevant blanking plugs from the outlet split-block (6) and fit the required number of
extra coupler pairs.
ALWAYS
fit the male coupler to the top port and the female coupler to the
bottom port to ensure correct torque wrench connection. (
See figure 5.5)
NOTE:
The ports are ¼” NPT, and a suitable thread sealant or PTFE Tape must be applied to the
coupler threads before they are fitted.
Hi-Force can supply the following torque coupler sets:
TP-CS1: Torque coupler set to convert TPA pump from 1 outlet to 2 outlets.
TP-CS2: Torque coupler set to convert TPA pump from 1 outlet to 3 outlets.
TP-CS3: Torque coupler set to convert TPA pump from 1 outlet to 4 outlets.
