According to Parker Chelsea, its new 560V Series power take-off system with integrated vane pump combination features interchangeable vane cartridges that allow users to achieve flow rates from 3.4 GPM (12.9 LPM) to 31.7 GPM (119.9 LPM) at 1,200 RPM, and pressure ranges up to 3,500 PSI.
Based on the Parker T6C family, the Chelsea 560V Series PTO offers the combined benefits of never having to set gear backlash and a vane pump design that provides a quiet operation not found in other PTO designs, according to the maker.
The robust design of the 560V clutch pack provides a single, continuous duty torque rating of 335 ft.-lbs. Because of this robust design, the unit will no longer require an intermittent torque rating, the company said. Both the main PTO housing, along with the suction and pressure ports on the pump, can be rotated to provide maximum clearance underneath a truck. A wet spline connection between the PTO and vane pump ensures long life, reducing maintenance costs and time, Chelsea added.
