The SilentFlo 515 Family

Known for their unmatched quiet and clean operation, MTS SilentFlo hydraulic
power units (HPUs) help you power your test systems with superior flexibility and
cost-efficiency. SilentFlo HPUs are specifically designed to handle the rigors of extreme,
continuous-duty servohydraulic applications, and they perform reliably, year after year.

Cooling Choices

System cooling is an important consideration because it can place significant demand

on facility services. MTS SilentFlo 515 HPUs feature a highly efficient cooling system
with options for both air and water heat exchanging.

Air-cooled

This energy-saving option is a good

alternative in moderate climates. The
MTS standard packages for air cooling
are designed to be used in a sheltered
outside installation and require the site to
supply a separate three-phase power feed.
All standard air cooling packages operate
at temperatures from -7˚ to 40˚C (20˚ to
104˚F), so temperature in and around the
515.20 Air-Cooled structure needs to be within this range.
The standard air coolers need to be
placed within nine meters (30 feet) of
the hydraulic power unit.

Water-cooled, site-supplied water

This option is one of the most common

ways to cool your system. If you are using
city or well water, you may want to include
an optional positive shutoff valve that turns
off the water when the HPU is not running.
515.20 Water-Cooled with This water-saving valve will increase the
Site-Supplied Water pressure required to maintain flow rates
during operation.

Water-cooled, chiller

MTS can help estimate the size chiller

necessary to maintain a closed-loop
cooling system for the SilentFlo HPUs in
your facility. The SilentFlo 515 HPU is
compatible with a wide variety of chiller
systems types:

Improve Testing Efficiency and Accuracy

Decisions regarding hydraulic fluid power and distribution have a profound impact on
test lab productivity. MTS has vast experience across a wide range of industries, and can
offer multiple solutions to maximize hydraulic power while minimizing energy use.
How you use hydraulic power to start, halt, restart or shutdown safely during planned
or unplanned events can greatly impact the amount of testing you can accomplish and
the quality of results you receive. With several options for monitoring and proactive
care of your hydraulic systems, you can detect threats to hydraulic system health and
keep your distribution system operating in optimal condition.
