Hydraulic Trainer
 

The Iron Horse Hydraulic trainer uses industrial-grade components to allow students to take an in-depth look at how hydraulics works in the real world.

Each component is separated into individual modules and mounted on durable plastic enclosures.

Our hydraulic training equipment utilizes an A-Frame design that allows two trainers to exist back-to-back.  Each side is capable of accepting up to eight hydraulic modules. This design allows you to construct the trainer with the components you desire. 

The modulated design allows you to start with a base unit and add additional components as funds arise.

The hydraulic workbook will identify each component in detail and provide safe operational practices.  Students will build and troubleshoot several circuits including:


  • Extend/retract with closed center
  • Extend/retract with open center
  • Extend/retract with tandem center
  • Addition of gage and pressure relief valve
  • Motor actuator with closed center
  • Cylinders in parallel
  • Cylinders in series
  • Sequencing the operation of the motor and cylinder with a sequence valve
  • Double sequence valves

  • Meter-in controlling extend stroke
  • Meter-out controlling extend stroke
  • Accumulator used for auxiliary power or emergency operation
  • Counterbalance valve
  • Pressure reducing valve
  • Valves in series
  • Valves in parallel
  • Regeneration
  • Pilot operation
  • Automatic reciprocation

Train-The-Trainer available for all equipment: Structured around getting the most out of your training equipment. The focus is applying the subject matter to the AIT training equipment, allowing for teacher professional development on the equipment in which they will instruct.

The Instructor manual provides you with the materials to conduct a class.  The manual provides a detailed description of the function for each circuit and outlines troubleshooting techniques.

Available Hydraulic Trainer Modules:

Pressure Reducing Valve Module…...............................................................................…. $ 479.95 Pressure reducing valve module - hydraulic trainer USD

The pressure reducing valve module contains one adjustable pressure control valve mounted on a durable box.  These valves close when downstream circuit pressure has exceeded the valve setting, causing flow to other parts of the circuit
.

Directional Control Valve Module.......................................................................................$ 609.95 USD
directional control valve module - hydraulic training equipment
This module contains one of four available types of directional valves from which you may choose.  You may pick from the following types of manually operated 3 position valves: Closed center valve, Open center valve, Tandem center valve, and Float center valve.  All are mounted on durable enclosures.

Direct Acting Pressure Control Valve Module....................................................................$ 359.95 USD

The direct acting pressure control valve module contains one adjustable pressure relief valve mounted on a durable plastic box.  These valves open when a circuit pressure has been reached, causing flow to other parts of the circuit.  Module can be used for pressure relief and sequencing circuits.

Pilot Operated Directional Control Valve Modue...............................................................$ 969.95 USD
hydraulic training equipment module
The pilot operated directional control valve is a two position, four-port valve which is shifted with hydraulic pressure.  This valve is useful for demonstrating remote controlled circuits, or automatic reciprocating circuits. Module is mounted on an ABS box.

Check Valve Module..............................................................................................................$ 239.95 USD


The Check Valve module contains two check valves mounted on a durable box. Each check valve can be inserted anywhere in the hydraulic circuit.  Check valves are used to permit flow in one direction while prohibiting flow in another.

Cylinder/Flow Control Valve Module....................... ..........................................................$ 909.95 USD
cylinder module -hydraulic training equipmentThe cylinder module consists of two double acting cylinders mounted across two enclosures.  The footprint of this module is the same as any other two-box modules, thus allowing for easy installation and removal.

Hydraulic Gage Assembly.....................................................................................................$ 239.95 USD
hydraulic gage assemble
The gage assembly is sold in a two pack.  Each gage assembly has been constructed to connect anywhere in the hydraulic circuit.  The gage connects with quick couplers and measures 0-500 psi.

 
Hydraulic Hose Assembly Package.......................................................................................$ 729.95 USD
hydraulic hose assembly package
Iron Horse hydraulic hose assemblies are available in packs of twelve consisting of six 24-inch hoses and six 36-inch hoses.  You may also choose to purchase packs of two 60-inch Hose Assemblies for $195.  Each hose is equipped with female quick couplers on both ends.  This allows for quick disconnect with little leakage.
Gerotor Motor........................................................................................................................$ 359.95 USD
gerotor motor
The gerotor motor is one of two types of hydraulic motors available.  The gerotor motor is another commonly used motor.  The housing of this motor is aluminum
.
Hydro-Pneumatic Accumulator............................................................................................$ 479.95 USD
hydro-pneumatic accumulator
Our accumulator is a diaphragm type.  It has a nitrogen charge on one side and accepts an oil charge when the oil pressure is greater than the gas pressure.
Tee and Cross Assemblies......................................................................................................$ 179.95 USD
tee and cross assemblies

The tee and cross fittings are needed to build all but the most basic circuits.  Both come in a two pack.  All ends have quick coupler ends.
A-Frame Cart Combo.........................................................................................................$ 1,939.95 USD
a frame cart combo
The A-frame is constructed out of rugged 16 ga. galvanized steel. The A-frame allows two trainers to be mounted back-to-back, so that two trainers can essentially utilize the space of one. The cart has a galvanized top drain tray to help contain drips. The cart has two drawers for storage and a bottom tray for storing hoses. The cart is mounted on rubber swivel casters, two of which are lockable. The cart and A-frame are very compact, will fit through any doorway, and are easily stored in a storage closet.
Hydaulic Power Supply......................................................................................................$ 1,819.95 USD
hydraulic power supply
The Hydraulic power supply stands upright and takes up little space. The power supply is mounted on a compact cart that rolls easily to where it is needed. There are two supply ports and two return ports on the top shelf that are easily connected to. The 10 micron filter is very easy to access, making maintenance of the unit a simple task. The unit is powered by 115 Volts AC, and multiple units can run on a 15 amp circuit. The pump produces approximately 1.5 GPM and there is an internal pressure relief valve which is preset at 400 psig. Another nice feature of the power unit is a pressure-dump lever that minimizes the potential for trapped pressure in a circuit. The cart features two storage shelves, and one of the shelves makes a perfect place to mount a compact drawer tower when you choose to add it.
