A hydraulic power unit is an independent device comprising a motor, a fluid reservoir, and a pump that applies hydraulic pressure to power motors, cylinders, and other auxiliary components within a specific hydraulic system. This unit serves to transform mechanical energy into hydraulic energy, facilitating fluid flow throughout the system. Hydraulic power units find application in various devices such as tractor-mounted excavators, aerial work platforms, lifters, log loaders, and more.

The primary types of hydraulic power units are gas hydraulic power units and electric hydraulic power units. Gas hydraulic power units, also known as engine-driven power packs, offer higher flow rates and greater force compared to diesel hydraulic power units, enabling the lifting and movement of larger objects in confined spaces. These units consist of components such as hydraulic motors, hydraulic pumps, accumulators, and accessories with varying pressure ratings such as 0-750 psi, 750-2000 psi, 2000-3000 psi, and pressure ratings exceeding 3000 psi. Hydraulic power units are applied in civil engineering projects, the automotive industry, the energy sector, and other fields.
