The nominal displacement of the Kawasaki K5V160DP pump is 160 cm³/rev. Since it is a variable displacement pump, the actual displacement can be adjusted within a certain range. This adjustment is crucial for matching the flow demands of different hydraulic functions in the CAT 336D2 and E336D2 excavators, such as boom lifting, arm extension, and bucket operation.
Operating Pressure
These pumps are designed to operate at high pressures to power the heavy-duty hydraulic systems of excavators. The maximum continuous operating pressure can typically reach around 350 bar (35 MPa). However, the exact maximum pressure may vary depending on the specific operating conditions, control settings, and the pump's overall design. Different functions in the excavator may require different pressure levels, and the pump is engineered to handle these variations.
