Load - Pressure Correlation For Model B65114 & B65115
Always monitor the force applied to workpiece by using a load cell and indicator or you may monitor pressure
developed in the ram by using an inline pressure gauge, then calculate the applied force using the formula:
F = P x A
For model B65114, A = 0.998 in² ;
For model B55115, A = 2.411 in²
Example1
Model B65114 lifting 5,000 lb will require what
presure?
Pressure = 5,000 lb / 0.998 in² = 5,010 psi
where
F = Force/ Load (lb);
P = Hydraulic working pressure (psi) and;
A = Ram effective area (in²)
Example2
Model B65115 operating at 6,000 psi will generate
what force?
Force = 6,000 psi x 2.411 in
2
= 14,466 lb
