Hydraulic Pressure Test Points

Hydraulic test points are a useful instrument for diagnostic purposes without having to turn off the hydraulic system. vdH test points can be found in power packs, valve blocks, hydraulic power units, hydraulic cylinders, heavy machinery and construction site machinery, earth moving machines, trucks, hydraulic test rigs, etc. The major advantage of a test point is its safe and leak-free access to a system that is under full working pressure.

The application spectrum comprises:

a) bleeding (e.g. draining pipes and other hydraulic components)
b) filling (e.g. refilling pipes and other hydraulic components with oil)
c) sampling (e.g. taking samples in a test tube for later chemical analysis)
d) pressure reading (e.g. for identification of pressure data).

For bleeding, filling, and sampling, merely a test point and a hose assembly are necessary,
whereas for pressure reading an additional component is needed, e.g. a gauge or a sensor that
is linked to a display.

Standard application

All applications can be performed without spilling fluid. Connecting and disconnecting test point
and hose assembly causes no leaks.
Depending on the series used, connecting is possible at a maximum WP of 400 bars (40 MPa).
Test points reduce costs. Practice has proven that pressure reading with a test point takes less
than a minute only. Test points constitute an economical advantage.
