Hydraulic pump info needed.

Mon Jul 23, 2012 7:04 pm

We're trying to find out how many RPM are required for our hydraulic pump to achieve system pressure. (around 1500PSI)



Pump name is: Stratopower mfg by Watertown Division
The New York Air Brake Company
Starbuck Avenue
Watertown, NY

Part Number is hard to read. I think it is: 67VC300 2 rated at 1650 PSI GPM at 1500 PSI is 3 GPM or could be 8 GPM


Any idea what RPM this would need to turn at to achieve this pressure?

Its from an R-4360-59B.

Some of the engine maint books will give gear ratios of accessory drives.
If you could find that some math could give you the needed rpm.
That is f you get system pressure at idle or xyz engine rpm.
