4.2 Brief description

Hydraulic power units serve the operation of the associated hydraulic rescue
devices. They are available with an electrical engine and with a combustion engine.
Furthermore, one differentiates between equipment with and without integrated
rapid deployment reels and compact power units.

With almost all power units, two devices can be operated simultaneously (in fact
three in the case of the E/V – TriPPPle-T!), or one device in turbo mode. Two hose
pairs, each 20 m long, are located on the rapid deployment reels. These can be
easily rolled out even when pressurised.
22 | Structure and function

4.3 Hydraulic supply

Hoses
The connection of the device with the power unit is carried out via high pressure
hoses. Hoses are available in lengths of 5 m, 10 m and 20 m. As the length of the
lines increases so too does the associated pressure loss. With a line length of 50
metres this pressure loss remains acceptable and has no significant effect.

CAUTION!
Do not use damaged hoses!

With damaged hoses there is a danger of escaping hydraulic

medium under pressure, or of the hoses whipping around.

Therefore:
»» The hoses should be subjected to a visual inspection (leak-
tightness, surface damage such as kinks) after every use and
at least once per year.

»» Every three years, or in the event of doubts about the safety

or reliability, carry out an additional functional and load test (as
per GUV-G 9102 or specific national directive).

»» Replace hoses every 10 years! The date (code letters or

quarter/year) is specified on the hose bonding.

»» Ensure that the hoses are not exposed to tension or torsion

(turning).

»» Do not kink the hoses or draw them over edges (smallest

bend radius 40 mm).

»» Do not subject the hoses to high temperatures.

»» Protect hoses from contact with materials that can cause

damage to the outer covering e.g. acids, alkalis, or solvents.
 Structure and function | 23

Hydraulic oil
All power units are designed and tested for WEBER hydraulic oil Part no. 804932.
This oil possesses a particularly high purity level and also works flawlessly at
temperatures below zero, down to -20° C.

NOTE !
In addition to the oil mentioned above we recommend:

»» AERO Fluid 41 (Shell)

»» Univis HVI-13 (Esso)
»» Aero-hydraulic 520 (Total)
»» Hydraulik DB (Castrol)
»» Renolin/MR310 (Fuchs)
»» Hydrex Arctic (Petro Canada)

Oil level indicator

There is a sight glass located on the side of the oil tank, with which the oil level
can be monitored. This must be checked regularly after every use. The oil must
be topped up if required.
24 | Structure and function

4.4 Equipment connections

SINGLE coupling

Connecting:
Remove the protective cap from the coupling male and the coupling female (Fig. 1).
Conflate Single coupling male and female in the bayonet catch (Fig. 2). Hold coupling
female on the black slew ring and turn clockwise until the coupling snaps in (Fig. 3).
Put protective caps together (Fig. 4). You don’t have to switch the power unit to
position 0 to connect or disconnect the coupling!

Disconnecting:
Remove the protective caps. Hold coupling female on the black slew ring and turn
anticlockwise direction. Turn the black slew ring until you can release the coupling
easily. Put protective caps to coupling male and the coupling female.

Fig. 1 Fig. 2

Fig. 3 Fig. 4

NOTE !
When using the SINGLE coupling, pressure relief connectors are no
longer required.
 Structure and function | 25

Plug-in coupling (SKS)

Connecting:
Remove the protective cap from the coupling male. Take hold of the coupling
female by the knurled sleeve cover and pull out the protective plug. With one hand
take hold of sleeve cover of the coupling female, with the other grasp the coupling
male (black) by the hex nut, and press the sleeve cover slightly against the coupling
male until the ball bearings engage. Twisting the male coupling slightly when pressing
togehter eases the coupling process.
Disconnecting:
Grasp the coupling male (black) by the hex nut with one hand and with the other
take hold of the sleeve cover and draw it back. The disconnecting will cause a few
drops of hydraulic oil to escape. Plug in the protective caps immediately.

CAUTION!
When coupling SKS connections the power unit operating lever
must be in the „0“ position.

NOTE !
A pressure relief connector is fitted to the hydraulic power
units and the hand pump, with which a few drops of oil can be
discharged from the hoses. This permits re-coupling following
pressure increases in de-coupled equipment.
In this case simply insert the pressure relief connector into the
coupling sleeve and turn the knurled screw to the right until oil
leaks out.
26 | Operation

5 Operation

5.1 General
To start the power unit with an electrical engine connect the equipment to an
electrical power supply. Then set the main switch to the „1“ position.

To start combustion engines please read the accompanying operating instructions

from the engine manufacturer.

The details of any special steps required to start the power units follow separately.

CAUTION!
When using SKS couplings the engine must never be started before
the control lever is out of the „0“ position and the work equipment
is connected! With single couplings this is not necessary.

5.2 E/V 50-T + SAH 20, E/V – MATIC + SAH 20, V 50 S,

V 50 Eco, V EcoCompact, V-EcoSilent
The power unit is operated by the two control levers (between the equipment
brackets). The oil flow in the two hose sets is controlled by these. The middle
position of the control levers represents the „0“ position.

Two-way operation (with turbo function):

In order to feed the entire oil flow into the left
hose pair, both control levers must be turned to
the left.

In order to feed the whole oil flow into the right

hose pair, both control levers must be turned to
the right.
 Operation | 27

Simultaneous operation:
In order to supply both hose pairs simultaneously
(with split oil flow), the left control lever must be turned
to the left and the right control lever must be turned to
the right.

NOTE!
The oil flow is likewise split if one lever is operated and the other
remains in the „0“ position. It is therefore necessary to operate
both control levers for the turbo function.

5.3 E/V – TriPPPle-T + SAH 20

The power unit is operated by the three control levers (between the equipment
brackets). The oil flow in the three hose pairs is controlled by these. The control
lever position perpendicular to the equipment (on „0“) represents the „0“
position.

Single operation:
In order to supply a hose line with oil the
corresponding control lever must be moved
to the arrow position. The other two remain
in the „0“ position.

Simultaneous operation:
In order to supply all three hose pairs
simultaneously, all three control levers
must be turned to the arrow position.

5.4 E/V 400

The power unit is operated by the control lever (adjacent to the connection for the
high pressure hose). The oil flow in the hose pair is controlled by this. The control
lever position perpendicular to the equipment (on „0“) represents the „0“ position.

To operate, simply turn the control lever in the direction of

the arrow. This initiates the oil flow in the hose pair.

5.5 Battery Pac

The Battery Pac can be carried on the shoulder or used as an independent
stand-alone battery powered power unit.

To start the unit press the On/Off switch on the housing or the strap (Fig. 1).
The On/Off switch then lights up green.

Fig. 1

The product is supplied with one battery and you can purchase a second battery to
double the unit‘s operating time. You can operate the unit with one battery or with
two batteries operating in parallel (batteries are then drained parallel as well). The
battery is inserted into the battery compartment. Simultaneously pressing the unlo-
cking mechanism releases the battery from the unit.
 Operation | 29

The coupling can be stored in the side pocket (Fig. 2).

After use the hydraulic fluid level should always be between Min. and Max. so that all
of the units can be operated, as the nominal pressure and tank content are desi-
gned to operate all WEBER rescue equipment. The oil tank can be filled / drained
very easily by retracting or expanding a rescue tool (Fig. 3).

5.6 V EcoSilent
To start the power unit the yellow ECO lever must first be set to the start position
(„S“). Then turn the the ignition switch (rotary switch) to the right to „Choke“ and
start the engine with the pull-chord. After warming up turn the
ignition switch to position „1“ and set the ECO lever to „ECO“.

Control
In order to control the outputs, two control levers are fitted
directly above the couplings. It is possible to control the oil flow
with these (by sliding to the side; similar to E/V 50-T).

Fuel tap
When transporting the power unit for an extended period the
fuel feed can be shut off. In order to do so it is necessary to
close the fuel tap (red). This is located under the maintenance
cover on the pull-chord side.

Petrol tank
The petrol tank can be filled via the filling port under the
black cover flap on the top side of the device. The fuel
level can be seen on the display on the operator panel.

5.8 DPH 4018 SA (hand pump)

In order start up the hand pump, first turn the pressure relief valve (Fig. 1) counter-
clockwise and operate the pump lever a few times. This exhausts the air from the
pump.
Finally, turn the pressure relief valve fully in a clockwise direction and do not open it
again during subsequent work with the equipment!

It is now possible to initiate the oil flow to the rescue equipment by actuating the
pump lever.
