possible combinations with directional valves, see D 7280 H !

1. General
1.1 Construction and mode of operation
The LP pumps are valve-controlled, two-way plunger pumps on the principle of a
pneumo-hydraulic pressure intensifier. The low-pressure piston with large surface
on the drive-side (air-side) pushes the piston with the smaller surface (hydraulic
side) against a high fluid pressure in the system. This way up to 630 bar can be
achieved with 6 bar air pressure, depending on the transmission ratio (surface ra-
tio of hydraulic piston / air piston). The pumps work with oscillating movements.
The stroke reversal is automatic via a directly mounted, self-piloted 4/2-way valve,
which receives a reverse impulse always in the end positions of the air piston.
The hydraulic pressure fluid is delivered by the lateral stroke movement. This
makes effective use of the power supplied from the compressed-air system, be-
cause the return stroke (suction stroke) of the one side coincides with the press,
stroke of the opposing side.

The LP pumps behave rather like load-controlled pumps, i.e. the stroke frequen- 1.4
cy slows down with the delivery flow decreasing while the hydraulic system pres-
sure rises steadily until a balance between the pneumatic and hydraulic forces is
achieved where this movement will stall. This point where no more air is consumed
depends on the set pressure on the pneumatic side. The pump will restart auto-
matically as soon as the hydraulic pressure drops again in an effort to maintain a
constant pressure on the hydraulic side.

The LP pumps are mainly intended for indoor use at stationary plants. They should be protected against ambient influences when
used outdoor. A critical point is the permissible air temperature (see sect. 2.1) as this might cause freezing (clogging) of the breather
cartridge. This may happen also when the ambient temperature drops below 0°C while the pump is standing still after previous use
i.e. a re-start will be impossible. For counter measure see sect. 7 or operating manual B 7280.
The pumps type LP can be used also in vehicles but only under the condition that is completely protected from splash water caused
by the moving vehicle or other working mechanisms.

1.2 Application
The LP pumps can be used to supply pressure oil for hydraulic consumers which work primarily on intermittent duty (pressure build-
up and pressure keeping). As the energy is supplied by compressed air, it is possible to use the pumps in explosive or hazardous
environments (dyestuff industry pyrotechnic factories). The connected system (consumers) may be controlled via directional valves.
Directional spool valves should be used when the main purpose of the system is to move consumers after the pump is activated via
an on/off pneumatic valve (see sect. 1.1 and 6). Directional seated valves are advantageous for applications where the pump is long-
time connected to the air supply to maintain a certain pressure level in the hydraulic system. Otherwise the always apparent inter-
nal leakage of directional spool valves would cause unnecessary re-starts of the pump. For suitable directional seated valves, see
D 7280H.
Examples of use:
Hydraulic presses: One or two stage presses for laboratories, testing, work shops etc. fed via a two pump system where the
one for low pessure high volume will stall automatically when its internal pressure balance is achieved.

Jigs and fixtures: Clamping and gripping devices, production jigs and fixtures for punching, bending, pressing in and out.
Portable or transportable jigs and fixtures (e.g. for cutting cables or crimping of cable brackets in the elec-
trical industry, tightening devices for nuts in the construction of motors and boilers). Operating devices for
valves, slide valves, butterfly valves, caps. Supply from compressed air cylinders for mounting devices in
after-sales service vehicles and workshop vehicles on building sites with no electric terminals, or for emer-
gency operation of doors and other installations in case of failure of the normal compressed air system.

Lubrication systems: Pressure oil supply for hydrostatic bearings, central oil lubrication, etc.

5.2 Installation outside an oil tank

It is best to install the pump in a position where the fluid level does not drop below the centerline of the pump. Foot valves preventing
that the suction line runs empty during prolonged stand-still periods of the pump have to be provided when the pump is positioned
above the fluid level. The end of the return pipe should be positioned below the lowest expected oil level. The joints of the suction
pipes must be properly sealed (see also section 5.3).

5.2.2 Horizontal or hanging position

While taking into consideration the best position for the suction pipes, as given in sect. 5 "Installation position", or in special oper-
ating circumstances as in sect. 7, the pump cylinders can be installed off-set by 90° after loosening the screws b sect. 5.3.
Restriction for LP 80: The pump can only be installed laterally like in illustration a) as a complete unit (state of delivery). It is not pos-
sible to rotate the hydraulic cylinders in relation to the pneumatic cylinder. The other installations like illustration b) or below are not
possible due to design reasons.

1. Set the pressure reducing valve on the maintenance unit down to the lowest supply air pressure (approx. 1.5 bar). The air start
valve should be on stop.
2. Loosen the pressure pipe at the consumer sufficiently so that trapped air can escape. Open the air start valve and wait for the
oil to come.
3. Air start valve on stop. Tighten the pressure pipe, and after starting the pump again, pressurize the unloaded consumer several
times and move it forward and backward. Then turn the pressure reducing valve up as in 1 to required supply air pressure (step
by step if necessary), untill the desired end pressure, e.g. standstill pressure, is shown on the pressue gauge of the pressure pipe
to the hydraulic consumer.
A maintenance unit in the compressed air supply line is mandatory, since it ensures flawless operation by filtering, moisture sepa-
ration and oiling (= conditioning of compressed air). It has a pressure reducing valve to limit the air pressure, which is
necessary on the hydraulic side to set the standstill pressure.
Attention: Observe the max. pressure rating in sect. 2.1 for pumps with standard piping (state of delivery)!
If the pump is connected to compressed air cylinders, care should be taken that the pressure reducing valve is connected in the
prescribed way. The pumps type LP feature neither a pressure Iimiting nor a pressure reducing valve.

Any industrial standard hydraulic oil (ISO VG 10) or spindle oil (ISO VG 5 to 10)
may be used in the pneumatic maintenance unit. The dynamic seals of piloting
and main plunger of the reversal control valve should be lubed regularily when
connected to oil-free pneumatics and a frequent all-day use is intended.
4 Suited are longterm lubes e.g. Autol TOP 2000 from Co. Autol, Paradies-

straße 14, D-97080 Würzburg.
3 The maintenance intervalls depend on the indivdual operation conditions e.g.
a 3-4 month interval for 3-shift permanent operation.

7. Note for prolonged operation periods

Any pressurized gas (or gas mixture) will cool down due to the thermodynamic regularity, when decompressed suddenly (adiabatic).
This will cause also cool down of the surrounding material where the decompression happens and where the gas is routed through.
The stand still periods during normal usual working cycles are usually sufficient that these components come to ambient tempera-
ture again.

But white frost or internal icing may occur (dep. on the moisture in the compressed air), when the pump is running for prolonged
periods. This effect is also visible at other pneumatic tools where the working speed is cut down and even stand-still is caused by
iced control elements. Pumps type LP are prone to such malfunction when permanently operated for more than 20 minutes and air
pressure is higher than 4 bar. A good preventive measure is adding anti-freeze-lubricant (like for truck brakes) in the service unit of
the compressed air. This will cut down the freezing point and will additionally lube the dynamic (moving) seals on the pneumatic
side of the pump. It is advantageous to install the pump with the silencer directing sideward or downwards as any excess antifreeze
condensing at the silencer will drop down and not drip into the movement reversal valve again. Evidently this is not possible with
complete hydraulic power packs from HAWE (see sect. 5.2.2) as the silencer is always vertically upwards.

A recommended anti-freeze-lubricant is e.g. "Klüberbio LR 6-15" from Co. Klüber Lubication,

D-81379 München, Geisenhausenerstr. 7.
