Belgium based REM-B Hydraulics has developed a hydraulic shackle release powerpack based mostly on Enerpac’s cordless XC-Series hydraulic pump for connecting and releasing one thousand tonne, 85 m excessive, offshore wind turbine bases throughout quayside lifting onto a pontoon.

REM-B Hydraulics developed the powerpacks for worldwide steel development company, Smulders. The self-contained, remote-controlled hydraulics powerpacks are a safer various to long lengths of hydraulic hoses linked to a quayside pump.
Lifting 85m excessive fabricated turbine bases from the quayside on to a barge for shipping offshore requires shackles to attach the turbine base to a three-point lifting body and crane. Engaging and releasing the shackles is done utilizing a double performing valve association powered by quayside pump connected by long hoses. Smulders was in search of a less complicated and safer methodology of engaging and releasing the shackles without the need for long hoses.
Attached to every leg of the lifting frame, the REM-B Hydraulics’ system removes the requirement for lengthy hoses by utilizing a battery-powered, Enerpac XC pump to operate a bi-directional valve related to a cylinder that strikes the pin connecting the shackle. The complete system is contained in a compact steel case with an external aerial linking each unit to a wi-fi controller. For elevated safety, the shackle pins are activated sequentially.
Weighing เกจวัดแรงดันpressuregauge , the Enerpac XC-Series hydraulic pump is equipped with an environment friendly electric motor powered by an industrial grade 28-volt, Lithium-Ion battery, delivering distinctive speed and run time and is designed for distant out of doors areas.
