Load - Pressure Correlation For Model J50040 & J50100
Always monitor the force applied to workpiece by using a load cell and indicator or you may monitor pressure developed
in the ram by using an inline pressure gauge, then calculate the applied force using the formula:
F = P x A
For model J50040,
A = 0.998 in² ;
For model J50100,
A = 2.411 in²
Example1
Model J50040 lifting 5,000 lbs will require what pressure?
Pressure = 5,000 lbs / 0.998 in² = 5,010 psi
where F = Force/ Load (lbs);
P = Hydraulic working pressure (psi) and;
A = Ram effective area (in²)
Example2
Model J50100 operating at 6,000 psi will generate what force?
Force = 6,000 psi x 2.411 in
2
= 14,466 lbs
