While all of our hydraulic power units are powerful, this one has a slight variation that best suits many customers’ needs: its 3.6-gallon tank and 2.5 HP motor is accompanied by a pressure relief valve with an extra-high threshold of 2,850 psi.

3.6 HP Powerhouse of a Motor
Each BendPak hydraulic power unit is as unique as the lift it fits. In most cases, each unit fits many different lifts. A larger motor and tank can get you a faster rise, and a higher-threshold pressure relief valve can ensure a larger window of recovery in the unlikely case something goes wrong during your heavy lifting applications. If the valve senses pressure levels greater than 2,850 PSI, this unique relief valve is designed and optimized to allow high-pressure fluid to safely bypass until normal working conditions have returned.

Every hydraulic power pack manufactured by Ranger Products is CE, UL and/or ETL-approved, so there’s no such thing as a “less safe” unit with us. In fact, all our units are guaranteed to meet or exceed the highest standards in the industry. We back up our claim with not only optimized pressure relief valves, but high-capacity fluid tanks and motors with enough horsepower to keep your hydraulic power unit powering car lifts around the clock.

The descent mechanism utilizes the pull of gravity to reduce electrical use when you lower your vehicle, extending the life of your hydraulic power unit while decreasing operating costs. The casing around the motor is secure and weatherproof, so you never have to worry about dust, dirt, air pollutant or other random garage debris disrupting car lift operation. If your garage experiences the shifting seasons, not to worry! With a safe operating range of -13 – 175°F, these power units function in virtually every temperature (we think) you can throw at it.

Hydraulic power packs can be hard to select. If have more questions or need expert advice on which unit best suits your car lift and lifting needs, be sure to contact us before you buy.
