Supply unit VFU, S

The supply unit consists of an inlet section VFU and an outlet section type S and acts as a distribution centre for the supply of pressurized hydraulic oil to other valves in the control system.

Simple installation

This is especially useful in cases where valves are physically dispersed such that direct lines between the units are not expedient. The hydraulic pump and tank are then connected to the supply unit. Hoses are run from there to the main valve located above the centre of rotation and to valves that handle e.g. outriggers. Outlet section S is used for manually controlled outriggers.

Few lines through the centre of rotation

The supply unit minimises the number of lines that must pass through the narrow sector at the centre of rotation. This allows for simple but extremely functional hose runs.
