CBDN-22/4JL Log Splitter Hydraulic Pump 2 Stage Log Splitter Pumps

The CBDN-22/4JL Log Splitter Hydraulic Pump is a high-performance, two-stage hydraulic gear pump designed specifically for log splitters and similar heavy-duty applications. This pump combines a high-flow, low-pressure stage (16 GPM) with a low-flow, high-pressure stage (6 GPM), delivering a total flow rate of 22 GPM at up to 3600 RPM. It operates at a maximum pressure of 4000 PSI intermittently and 3000 PSI continuously, requiring approximately 11 horsepower to function efficiently. Featuring a 5/8" shaft, 1" NPT inlet, and 3/4" NPT outlet, the pump has a clockwise rotation and a durable cast iron or aluminum body with cast steel end plates. Its design ensures faster cycle times and higher pressures with smaller engines, making it ideal for log splitters, hydraulic presses, and compactors. The pump’s high-low pressure system automatically switches between stages, optimizing efficiency and performance.

Features of 2 Stage Hydraulic Pump for Log Splitter

• Two-Stage Operation: The log splitter hydraulic pump features a two-stage system, combining high-flow, low-pressure (16 GPM) and low-flow, high-pressure (6 GPM) stages. This allows efficient operation, automatically switching to deliver optimal power for splitting logs, reducing cycle times significantly.
• High Pressure Capacity: Designed to handle up to 4000 PSI intermittently and 3000 PSI continuously, the pump ensures robust performance under demanding conditions. This high-pressure capability supports heavy-duty log splitting with consistent force and reliability.
• Durable Construction: Built with a cast iron or aluminum body and cast steel end plates, the hydraulic pump log splitter is engineered for durability. This rugged construction withstands harsh environments, ensuring long-term reliability and resistance to wear in outdoor applications.
• Efficient Power Usage: Requiring approximately 11 horsepower, the hydraulic log splitter pump maximizes efficiency by delivering high performance with smaller engines. This optimizes fuel consumption and reduces operational costs, making it ideal for log splitters and similar equipment.
• Standardized Fittings: Equipped with a 5/8" shaft, 1" NPT inlet, and 3/4" NPT outlet, the 2 stage log splitter pump ensures compatibility with standard hydraulic systems. These fittings simplify installation and maintenance, enhancing usability across various log splitter models.
• Clockwise Rotation: The two stage log splitter pump operates with a clockwise rotation at up to 3600 RPM, ensuring smooth and consistent hydraulic fluid flow. This design enhances system efficiency, reduces mechanical stress, and supports reliable operation in demanding log-splitting tasks.

How to Choose the Right Hydraulic Log Splitter Pump?

1. Determine the Required Pump Flow Rate: The flow rate, measured in gallons per minute (GPM), dictates how quickly the hydraulic cylinder extends and retracts. Smaller log splitters may require pumps with 11-13 GPM, while larger, commercial models often need 16-22 GPM for optimal performance.
2. Assess the Pump’s Pressure Rating: The log splitter hydraulic pump's pressure rating, measured in PSI (pounds per square inch), determines the splitting force. For heavy-duty applications, choose a pump with a pressure rating of 2,500-3,000 PSI to handle denser and larger logs effectively without straining the system.
3. Match the Pump to the Engine Horsepower: Ensure the log splitter pump's GPM and PSI requirements align with the engine’s horsepower. An underpowered engine may not support a high-GPM pump, leading to inefficiency or damage. Typically, a 5-10 HP engine is suitable for most log splitter pumps.
4. Consider the Two-Stage Operation: Two-stage log splitter pumps are ideal for log splitters, as they combine high-speed operation for quick cylinder movements with high-force operation for splitting. This versatility ensures faster cycle times and reduces the effort required when processing tough logs.
5. Check Compatibility with Hydraulic System: Verify that the hydraulic pump for log splitter is compatible with your existing hydraulic system, including the cylinder and valve. Proper sizing and connections prevent leaks, inefficiencies, or system failures. Ensure fittings, ports, and mounting configurations match your setup.
6. Evaluate Durability and Build Quality: Choose a hydraulic log splitter pump constructed with high-quality materials, such as cast iron, aluminum, or steel alloys, for long-lasting performance. Pumps designed for heat dissipation and wear resistance ensure reliability, even under heavy use in demanding environments.
