Hydraulic

​

​To suit your training objectives and budgets, FPTI™ offers three variations of their flagship hydraulic training systems; click the link for each to see a flyer about it:

 

• MF102-H - a brilliant “foundation building” training system that is masterfully crafted to help students connect the dots. Pascal’s Law, inertia, power, resistance, pressure differential, series, parallel – theory, it’s all so confusing if the students can’t apply it, yet it’s the very foundation upon which their knowledge of hydraulics is built.

• MF102-H-TS - the letters “TS” denote troubleshooting; add troubleshooting to the model MF102-H and you have the most advanced hydraulic training system in the world that can be used to teach a 40-hour plus course in basic hydraulics, and another 40-hour plus course in troubleshooting

• MF102-H-TSE - has the same features and capabilities as the model MF102-H-TS but the letter “E” denotes “electronic troubleshooting.” This is FPTI™’s flagship, and best-selling, training system loaded with features and benefits you will NEVER find on any other training simulator.​

Other hydraulic trainers include:

​​

• MF200-CAV - Cavitation has the potential to cause the degradation failure of the entire hydraulic system. It is also the common cause of catastrophic pump failure.  Training includes:

  • How the inlet side of a hydraulic pump works

  • Why it is critical to establish a “trend” for pump inlet restriction

  • How and why cavitation occurs

  • Safe and effective diagnostic procedures for determining the root-cause of cavitation

• MF300-VCLS - an extremely versatile 2-in-1 training system designed for teaching and learning hydraulic steering and hydrostatic transmissions.  The front-end has a fully-functional hydraulic steering system that is identical to those found on articulated machines such as front-end loaders. The rear-end features a fully-functional hydrostatic (hydraulic) transmission identical to those in skid-steer type loaders and many other types of industrial and mobile machinery.

• MF400-HCTS - designed to help instructors teach and students learn how to safely and correctly perform the following skills:

  • Overhaul a hydraulic cylinder.

  • Identify and use the tools needed to overhaul a hydraulic cylinder.

  • Inspect the components in a hydraulic cylinder to determine the root cause of a failure.

  • Replace piston and gland seals.

  • Test a hydraulic cylinder.

  • Air bleed a hydraulic cylinder.

• MF500-HT-TSE - Skid-steer type loaders are today’s hydrostatic transmission training systems – you will find one in the lab of almost every technical college in the country.  However, these types of vehicles offer a host of unique safety hazards. Some of the more serious hazards include: unexpected vehicle motion, rotating wheels and shafts; noxious exhaust emissions; hot engine components; improperly supported vehicle, disconnecting of critical manufacturer installed safety devices, confined space, etc.  The MF500-HT-TSE eliminates ALL of the hazards associated with using a skid-steer type loader as a hydrostatic transmission training system because it is designed for educators not for a construction site.

• MF600-1HP - The 1-HumanPower™, zero-emissions hydraulic training system is designed to help students clearly understand fundamental hydraulics as it relates to horsepower, flow and pressure.
