What is the lifespan of a hydraulic pump?

A properly maintained hydraulic pump typically operates for several thousand hours. Its longevity depends mainly on fluid cleanliness, adherence to filter replacement intervals, and operating temperatures. A tested used pump, installed on a healthy circuit, offers service life fully compatible with intensive professional use.

How can I increase the flow rate of a hydraulic pump?

The flow rate of a pump is determined by its displacement and operating speed: it cannot be changed without altering the circuit design. If the available flow becomes insufficient, the correct approach is first to check the pump condition (internal wear, leaks) and then, if necessary, replace it with a reference matching manufacturer specifications. Fitting an oversized pump risks exposing the circuit to unexpected pressures: consult our teams before any modification.

How do I know if my pump can be repaired or needs replacement?

It depends on the cause of failure. Advanced internal wear (piston clearance, surface erosion) often makes repair more costly than replacing with a tested used pump. Our teams assist you in making a decision based on the model, stock availability, and your budget.
