About this industry
A hydraulic power unit or test bench lives or dies on flow, force, and oil condition — you meter the pump and cylinder circuits, build diagnostics into the machine, baseline it with a portable tester, and keep the reservoir warm enough to start clean on a cold morning. Prater Technical Partners supplies that layer end to end: Hedland variable-area meters and Flo-tech Classic turbines on the circuits, Flo-tech Activa / Ultima and F6100 diagnostics built into the unit, PFM6 and MC4000 portable testers, Cox Exact metering on the precision test stand, WIKA-ST rod-end load cells for cylinder and actuator force, and Indeeco and Heatrex heaters on the oil reservoir. Prater Technical works with you to spec each one from the fluid, the flow range, and the pressure rating.
