Pump Drive Selection Procedure

1. Identify the number and type of hydraulic pumps to be applied.
2. Check the maximum torque absorbed by the pump or pumps on each output of the pump drive.
3. Check the maximum power/torque entering the pump drive from the prime mover.
4. Compare the size of the hydraulic pumps to the selected pump drive installation dimensions to
determine if the proper clearance exists to mount the pumps on the pump drive.
5. Select the desired input configuration:
B – Basic mount, either with drive plate or rubber block drive
BD – Engine mounted clutch input
BDS – Independently mounted clutch input
If a BD or BDS option is selected, verify that the input speed does not exceed the maximum allowable speed
for the clutch and that the applied torque does not exceed 80% of the maximum torque rating of the clutch.
6. Verify that the torque value of each output is below the maximum value shown for the chosen pump drive.
7. Verify that the input speed does not exceed the maximum input speed shown for the pump drive.
8. Select the proper output option for pump adaptation. SAE adapters are available for all pump drives.
Other adaptations may be available, contact Twin Disc for non SAE adaptations.
9. Identify cooling requirements:
— Oil operating temperature must not exceed 105°C (221°F) with synthetic oil or 80°C (176°F)
with mineral oil.
— Depending on the input power, application and duty, a cooling system may be necessary.
— It is advisable to check the oil temperature during the first few hours of work to make sure
it does not exceed the maximum temperatures listed.
— All pump drives (except AM 216 and AM 320) can be equipped with a cooling system
consisting of an oil circulating pump mounted on the input shaft on the pump side, and Twin Disc, Incorporated
oil/water cooler and required piping and fittings. Racine, Wisconsin 53403 USA
