Traditional hydraulic installations depend on oil mass to absorb heat. While simple, this approach consumes chassis space, adds weight and increases service costs.
Hydrapak replaces the tank with a compact cooling unit that delivers consistent temperature control without the drawbacks of oversized reservoirs.
Key Advantages of Hydrapak Technology
1. Smaller Footprint for Easier Integration
Hydrapak units take up far less space than conventional tanks, giving OEMs and bodybuilders more flexibility when positioning truck‑mounted equipment.
The compact layout simplifies installation and frees up room for other components.
2. Lower Weight, Higher Payload
A 200–300 litre tank requires the vehicle to carry the full oil volume at all times.
Hydrapak systems operate with dramatically less fluid — as little as 11 litres on the HK3 — reducing overall system weight and enabling higher payload capacity.
3. High Cooling Efficiency
Optimised air‑cooling and efficient flow paths maintain stable hydraulic oil temperature, even under demanding duty cycles.
The reduced oil volume allows faster heat transfer and helps the system operate efficiently with lower energy demand from the hydraulic pump.
4. Lower Operating and Maintenance Costs
With significantly less hydraulic oil in the system, annual service becomes faster and more economical:
- lower oil consumption
- reduced waste oil disposal
- fewer maintenance‑related interruptions
This makes Hydrapak a cost‑effective solution for fleets and industrial operators.
