Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. What are the differences between single-acting and double-acting hydraulic cylinders?

A. A single-acting hydraulic cylinder applies force through only one side of the piston. The piston generally extends by hydraulic pressure from the pump and then retracts using the load or inbuilt spring. A double-acting hydraulic cylinder on the other hand contains two ports to apply force in two directions for both expanding and retracting the piston.

Q. How to bleed air from Enerpac hydraulic cylinders?

A.

• Attach the cylinder & pump with appropriate hose assembly while ensuring secure connections.
• Place the pump at a higher level than the cylinder if possible.
• Vent the pump reservoir and advance & retract the cylinder with little or no pressure.
• If the plunger operates smoothly, the air has bled out of the system. If the cylinder retracts in a jerky, spongy or pulsating manner, then continue cycling the pump & cylinder stem till the operation has become smooth.

Q. What is the maximum load capacity of this Enerpac RCH-206 hydraulic cylinder?

A. This hydraulic cylinder can lift a maximum load of 23.6 tons.

Q. What maintenance is required for Enerpac RCH206 hydraulic cylinder?

A. Regular inspection and maintenance of Enerpac RCH-206 cylinder are important to ensure optimal performance and longevity. This may include checking for leaks, inspecting seals, cleaning and lubricating moving parts, and following the recommended maintenance intervals outlined in the user manual.

Q. Can Enerpac RCH206 hydraulic cylinder be used in both vertical and horizontal orientations?

A. Yes, the brand's RCH-206 cylinder can be used in both vertical and horizontal orientations. Its design allows for operation in various positions, providing flexibility in different application scenarios.
