    New Omni Powertrain Electrohydraulic Pump Benefits Hybrid Equipment Applications

    May 5, 2022
    Omni's new electrohydraulic pump packages a gear pump, axial flux motor and controller into a single, compact unit.

    Omni Powertrain Technologies has introduced a new electrohydraulic pump. The pump was designed for use in low-voltage mobile vehicle and equipment applications. The company says it is particularly suited for use in hybrid equipment where it is better able to fit within the space constraints common to those applications. 

    Omni's new electrohydraulic pump packages a gear pump, axial flux motor and controller into a single unit. It features an overall length of 299.7 mm (11.8 in.), providing a compact pump that will be easier to install in various equipment applications.  

    Additional features of the electrohydraulic pump include: 

    • Magelec M17 air cooled motor with SAE B mount connection
    • complete package weight of 17.6 kg (38.8 lbs.)
    • 48V system 
    • rated for 46 L/min of continuous flow
    • peak pressure rating of 250 bar.

    The gear pump is from Omni's FloTorq Hydraulics subsidiary—a developer of hydraulic drive systems and components—while the motor and controller are from its Magelec brand which develops complete electric powertrains. Use of existing components helps to ensure the reliability of the pump. Omni notes additional pump and motor combinations are available upon request, as well.
