Air Over Oil Intensifier Circuit
There are three classes of intensifiers.
Air over oil intensifier circuit. If necessary to run a long exhaust line make it about two pipe sizes larger than the feed line. This in turn drives a smaller diameter ram or piston to deliver a given volume of fluid. A vented spring chamber eliminates back pressure. The air operated pump delivers oil on to the top piston of the intensifier with the valves a and b shut.
4 tons 8 tons 10 tons 15 tons 20 tons 30 tons 50 tons 4 tons to 50 tons of hydraulic force. When control is only necessary in one direction the tank on the uncontrolled side can be omitted. The cylinder strokes are made to order and dictate output volume. Pressurized fluid either air or oil enters the intensifier and acts on a confined piston.
Ah series hi lo air over oil cylinder. The pump s usual discharge pressure is of the order of 16000 psi. Its operation is quite simple. Intensifier is filling with oil.
More cost efficient alternative to full hydraulic cylinder. The simple design offers a quick response and trouble free operation. Air input to the intensifier s spring return retracts the piston drawing in hydraulic oil from a reservoir and pumps it to the intensifier circuit at a pre defined output hydraulic to input air pressure ratio.

Intensifiers also known as boosters use a large quantity of low pressure fluid to produce a smaller quantity of higher pressure fluid. A parker fluidpower intensifier is an efficient way of generating high pressure hydraulic fluid. Air oil intensifier circuit with purchased reciprocating intensifier. Contact bimba for seal compatibility.
Most manufacturers offer single acting intensifiers as standard and double acting intensifiers as an option. The optional stainless steel output cylinder can handle a wide range of liquids. Single shot design incorporates various ratios between the air piston supply and intensified air or oil output. Air input to the intensifier s spring return retracts the piston drawing in hydraulic oil from a reservoir and pumps it to the intensifier circuit at a pre defined output hydraulic to input air pressure ratio.
Too much back pressure in the exhaust line may cause some intensifiers to stall. Intensified oil circuit all components in the high pressure hydraulic or air circuit should have a safety factor of at least 6 1. Click here to view a sample circuit drawing. Typical air oil tank arrangement.
The air pump draws the hydraulic oil from the reservoir and pumps it to the intensifier circuit which has manual valves and pressure gauges. Riveting crimping punching swaging trimming marking or character stamping assembly notching joining forming and fastening models. Air over oil tanks do not intensify the oil pressure regardless of the tank s diameter or length. When a machine needs a low to medium volume of high pressure oil and has long holding times use a reciprocating intensifier.
