4.2 Hydraulic Requirements
Truck requires a hydraulic pump with the following specifications
1. Maximum pressure capability of 3000psi (pressure is usually set to approximately
1800 to 2000 psi).
2. Minimum flow of 5 GPM (lower flow is acceptable, but will increase the time to raise
and lower the scale into and out of weighing mode).
3. If used with NORAC supplied control valves, the pump must be open center
(constant volume).
4. If used with other hydraulic control valves, pump must match the control valve (i.e.
open center pump with open center valve).
5. Scale Selection
The capacity of the scale selected must be able to carry the empty weight of the
container / delivery body (tare weight) plus the maximum product that can be carried by
the container (maximum net weight). The following chart can be used to select the
proper scale capacity.
