Electric-Hydraulic Pump
All Jimmy Series Hydraulic Rebar Benders require an electric-
powered hydraulic pump to supply the necessary pressure to actuate
the hydraulic cylinder. This hydraulic pump consists of a drive
cylinder, oil reservoir and electronics for either remote or manual
operation.
The electric motor for this pump is a 1.5 HP motor. Each electric
motor requires 115 VAC, 60 Hz input for normal operation. Amperage
draw for the electric motor at 10,0000 psi (68,951 kpa) is
approximately 13 amps. Reference Figure 5 for oil volume versus
pressure.
The hydraulic pump is equipped with a 3-way, 3- position manual
operated valve. This valve allows the operator to remotely control
the
advance
,
hold
and
return
functions of the rebar bender. A 15 ft.
(4.57 meters) remote control cable allows the operator to control the
pump remotely.
