Efficiency-optimised peak-load operation (parallel operation)
In peak-load operation (parallel operation), the hydraulic output is provided jointly by both pumps.
In the partial load range, the hydraulic output is initially provided by just one of the two pumps.
If the sum of the electrical power consumption P1 of both pumps in the partial load range is less than the power consumption P1 of one pump, then the second pump is switched on with optimised efficiency.
This operating mode optimises operational efficiency compared to conventional peak-load operation (exclusively load-sensitive switching on and off).
If only one pump is available, the remaining pump takes over the supply. The possible peak load is limited due to the power of the single pump. Parallel operation is also possible with two single pumps of the same type in dual-pump operation in the Y-piece.
