Hydraulic Power System Complete Introduction
1. Basic Product Overview
The Hydraulic Power System, commonly referred to as a hydraulic power unit (hydraulic station) in the industry, is an integrated standalone hydraulic oil supply assembly integrating an electric motor, hydraulic pump, oil tank, control valve bank, monitoring gauges and auxiliary accessories. It delivers pressurized hydraulic oil at stable pressure to drive actuators like hydraulic cylinders and motors, widely applicable to industrial automation, engineering machinery, metallurgy, warehousing lifting equipment and other scenarios. The multiple GEYAO models shown in the pictures all fall into this product category.
Core Components (Matching Parts in the Actual Photos)
1. Power Drive Module: Three-phase asynchronous motor + hydraulic pump (gear pump / piston pump), converting electric energy into pressure energy of hydraulic oil
2. Oil Storage Module: Carbon/stainless steel oil tank for storing hydraulic oil, heat dissipation and impurity sedimentation, fitted with a liquid level gauge for direct oil level observation
3. Pressure Regulation & Control Module: Relief valves, solenoid directional valves, cartridge valves, one-way throttle valves, etc., to control circuit on-off, pressure and flow rate
4. Safety Monitoring Module: Pressure gauges for real-time pressure detection, oil temperature & liquid level rulers, pressure sensors, safety relief valves
5. Auxiliary Expansion Module: Accumulators for pressure stabilization and holding, air coolers for temperature control, movable casters, lifting lugs, electric control cabinets, oil filters

3. Working Principle
1. The motor drives the hydraulic pump to draw oil from the tank and deliver pressurized hydraulic oil;
2. Relief valves set the maximum safe system pressure, diverting excess oil back to the tank;
3. Directional valves switch oil flow direction to control cylinder extension/retraction and motor forward/reverse rotation;
4. Accumulators buffer pressure spikes, coolers stabilize oil temperature, and gauges track operating parameters to achieve steady oil supply in a closed loop.
