Comparison and Analysis of Direct and Remote Mounting of Hydraulic Pump – Bezares SA
Bezares, a leading company in the manufacturing of power take-offs and hydraulic equipment for vehicles, presents a comparison between two methods of installing hydraulic pumps in a vehicle: direct mounting and remote mounting using a cardan shaft. The choice between these methods will depend on the type of application and specific requirements of the vehicle.
Direct Mounting
Bezares products are specially designed by their in-house team of engineers to be compact without compromising on strength, making them ideal for direct mounting options. This method is a simpler, more economical, and safer option for the operator since it does not require a cardan system. It also reduces the weight of the vehicle, saving fuel. However, in some cases, the limited space may make it difficult or impossible to install the selected hydraulic pump.
Advantages
Simpler installation, more economical, safer for the operator, lower vehicle weight.
Disadvantages
Limited space in some cases.
Remote (Cardan) Mounting
Remote mounting allows the installation point to be projected to a more spacious area, facilitating maintenance and eliminating space limitations for the pump. However, this system is more prone to problems due to misalignments and incorrect balancing of the cardan, which can produce axial and/or radial loads on the pump. It is important to highlight that lubrication of the cardan joints is very important in remote mounting, as sometimes it is not done with the necessary frequency, which can cause breakages in the cardan joints, especially in waste trucks with many daily operations.
Advantages
No space limitations for the pump, greater ease of maintenance.
Disadvantages
System more prone to problems due to misalignments and incorrect balancing of the cardan, which can produce axial and/or radial loads on the pump. Additionally, correct maintenance of the cardan joints is required to prevent breakages.
Conclusion
In summary, the choice between direct mounting and remote mounting of hydraulic pumps will depend on the type of application and specific requirements of the vehicle. Bezares offers customized solutions to its customers so that they can select the most suitable product for their needs.
