the load securely. Built-in relief and make-up
valves allow easy installation directly on a
gearbox.

Connected directly to the ports of the

hydraulic motors, the KDC Series
counterbalance valve prevents loads from
dropping freely and regulates lowering speed
smoothly by generating the required back
pressure to the winch motor.

In applications that demand rapid, precise control, the K3VG Series

hydraulic pump has built-in electronic controls for outstanding
controllability.

Electronic pump controls can be actuated by computer to provide

integrated control systems for precision, high speed applications
such as the test platform shown here. The “ILIS” control module
features integral sensors that measure swash plate angle for
feedback control to the computer.

Industries that operate around

the clock depend upon
Kawasaki K3VG Series high
efficiency axial piston pumps,
which use the same internal
components as K3V Series
pumps to ensure ultra-high
reliability. In a steel rolling mill,
K3VG pumps supply a continuous flow and steady
pressure to cylinders that control the movement of
the rollers.

Multiple M3X Series axial

piston hydraulic motors
provide the driving force to
turn a giant boring machine
efficiently. A special spherical
surface type valve plate
significantly improves the
starting efficiency, enabling
the motor to start the
machine under full load.

Kawasaki high pressure, long

life K3VL & K3VG Series
hydraulic pumps provide high
pressure (4600 & 5000 psi) and
continuous driving capability
required for applications such
as derrick cranes and winches.

For applications such as mooring winches,

where reliability and high-torque are
required, a Staffa high-torque, low-speed
radial piston motor coupled with a ring
gear offers a simple, economical solution.
The motor’s hydrostatically balanced
connecting rod and valve spool design
minimizes internal metal to metal contact,
reducing friction for high mechanical efficiency and long life.
Staffa motors have demonstrated their reliability in over 55
years of successful operation worldwide.

The M3X Series fixed displacement swash

plate type axial piston motor has high
starting efficiency due to its spherical valve
plate design. Shaft creep is minimized
because of stable retention of the cylinder,
enabling the motor to hold a windlass drum
steady with minimal slip. M3B variable
displacement axial piston motors are also
widely used in marine winch applications to
satisfy various torque and speed
requirements.

The ERU and ERUP Series have the same look, feel, and proven performance as our hydraulic
pilot valves. The foot operated units are available as single or dual pedal configuration.
All of the ERU units feature a reliable and long life non-contact type potentiometer.
The body of the ERU is constructed with a heavy duty water proof and electromagnetic
noise resistant housing. The ERU controllers can be specified with voltage or current outputs.
The ERUH modulation handle features a non-contact type sliding thumb switch, which can
control a proportional solenoid directly.
