Kawasaki K3VL Series Variable Piston Pump for Industrial & Mobile Applications

Product Overview: The Kawasaki K3VL series is a range of high-performance swashplate-designed axial piston pumps engineered for Open Circuit hydraulic systems. This series covers a vast displacement range from the ultra-compact 28cc (K3VL28) to the high-output 200cc (K3VL200). Renowned for their superior self-priming speeds and a continuous operating pressure of 320 Bar, K3VL pumps maintain peak volumetric efficiency even during high-speed operation and severe load fluctuations. Whether in the lightweight K3VL28/C-1NPSM or the heavy-duty K3VL200B, Kawasaki provides precise Load Sensing and Pressure Compensation control.

Key Technical Advantages:

• Exceptional Self-Priming Ability: Optimized for high-speed drives. The internal porting ensures higher rated speeds without auxiliary inlet boosting, drastically reducing the risk of cavitation.

• Heavy-Duty Pressure Reliability (4600 PSI): Rated at 320 Bar (4600 PSI) with peak cycles reaching 350 Bar, featuring reinforced bearings to ensure structural integrity over long-term industrial service.

• Intelligent Control Modulations (L0/L1):

  • Load Sensing (LS): Models like the K3VL28/C-1NPSM-L0 feature high-sensitivity LS valves to synchronize flow output with actuator demand, slashing energy waste.

  • Pressure Compensator: Automatically de-strokes the pump when preset pressure is reached, protecting components and optimizing thermal efficiency.

• Compact Modular Design: Superior thru-drive capability allows for tandem mounting of secondary pumps (e.g., code H6), streamlining multi-circuit power distribution layouts.

• Low Noise Design: Utilizing Kawasaki’s patented silent valve plate technology, these pumps effectively suppress fluid pulsations, making them ideal for indoor factory environments like injection molding and pressing machines.
