Hydraulic Systems

Propane Truck Hydraulic System

Overview

Reliable hydraulics are essential to safe, efficient propane operations. From loading arms to lift systems, every hydraulic component must work flawlessly under pressure. LUX Industries provides complete hydraulic system service to keep your propane vehicles operating smoothly and safely. Our team inspects, repairs, and rebuilds hydraulic components, replaces worn hoses and seals, and ensures pressure and flow are balanced for peak performance.

With LUX on your side, you can reduce downtime, prevent leaks, and extend the life of critical hydraulic systems that keep your fleet moving.

Most common hydraulic kits come with a Apsco Stabilizer  Thermaflow SS510P or SS140P. Both utilizes a small amount of the propane you’re pumping to cool the hydraulic system. This propane is heated by the hydraulic oil and then returned into the tank, stabilizing the system. By adding positive head pressure to the pump we reduce product pump cavitation which increases pump flow rates and reduces maintenance cost.
SS510P: 
  • Uses propane to cool hydraulic system.
  • Optimized heat rejection
  • 10 micron filter element. 
  • Tank size 2.5 gallons
  • Mobil DTE 10-32 or equivalent recommened fluid.
  • Pressure relief valve located inside cabinet.
