Routine Maintenance for SilentFlo HPUs
If hydraulic fluid is the lifeblood of your system, the HPU is the heart. Hundreds of gallons of fluid go through your pump each year, and it is important for system operation and energy consumption that the pump is working as efficiently as possible. As the OEM of the hydraulic power unit, we know what to look for to keep the pump in top operating condition.

Service Details
On a routine maintenance visit, we’ll check pump hours, operating temperature, accumulator pressure, observable fluid condition, hose condition cable connections and filter status. We’ll charge accumulators and replace filters. At the end of each routine maintenance visit, we’ll provide a report of all services performed, current equipment condition and any recommendations, if necessary.
