Component Descriptions
COMPONENT DESCRIPTION
Electrical enclosure Houses the electrical control components. The wye-delta starters for the
Model 505.60/.90 HPUs are located in the electrical enclosure. The wye-
delta starters for the Model 505.120/.150/.180 HPUs are located in the
pump assemblies. Main service power lines enter the electrical enclosure
at its top.
Operator interface Configures the hydraulic power unit and it is used to enter control
commands. It displays the current status of several sensors. For a
description of each control and indicator, see “Controls” on page 24.
Hour meters Individual meters display the number hours each motor has been
running.
Power disconnect switch Disconnects the incoming power from the HPU. The switch is a lockable,
mechanical latch. The switch is a lockable mechanical latching
mechanism. Power is removed whenever the door to the electrical
enclosure is open. The switch will not allow the door to be opened
when in the ON (|) position. Incoming power lines to the switch are live
unless power is removed externally.
Level/temperature switch Senses the hydraulic fluid level and temperature. Control interlocks
automatically shut the HPU down if the fluid level drops too low or the
hydraulic fluid temperature rises above the temperature setting. For more
information see “Replacing the Low Level/Temperature Fixture” on page
44.
Level/temperature Senses the hydraulic fluid temperature and produces an analog signal for
transducer control purposes.
Oil level dial gage Indicates the reservoirs hydraulic fluid level.
Filler cap Vents the hydraulic fluid reservoir. This is where you add hydraulic fluid.
Reservoir Holds the hydraulic fluid and houses the pump and motor.
Commoning expansion Allows the HPU to be commoned with another HPU.
plate
Pump assemblies Produces the pressurized hydraulic fluid for system use. Each pump
assembly includes a motor, pump, and electrical enclosure for
connecting with the main starter.
Filter assembly Filters, to 3 micron absolute, particles out of the hydraulic fluid as it is
returned to the HPU. For more information, see “Replacing the Filter” on
page 36.
Heat Exchanger Regulates the temperature of the hydraulic fluid using a highly efficient,
stainless steel oil-to-water heat exchanger. It is engineered to remove the
heat generated by the HPU. For more information, see “Changing the
Water Flow” on page 31.
Manifold Combines the output of the separate pumps to deliver the full output of
the HPU through a single port. The manifold provides solenoid control
of the high/low pressure output from the individual pumps. It also
contains relief valves for each pump circuit and a bypass circuit to
maintain the hydraulic temperature during low flow conditions.

Functional Description
The Series 505.60/.90 and 505.120,/.150/.180 HPU platforms are a modular
design that can be configured with up to six pump assemblies.
Note The hydraulic schematics and the electrical schematics for the Model
505.60/.90 and Model 505.120-180 are located in the “Appendix” on
page 47. The difference between the models is the number of pump
assemblies.
Pump assemblies One to six pump assemblies draw hydraulic fluid from the reservoir and
pressurize it to a maximum of 21 MPa (3000 psi). Each pump assembly
contains a variable volume pump, a motor, and an electrical enclosure.
Each pump assembly has a flow capacity of 113 L/min (30 gpm) and
contributes to the hydraulic flow capacity of the HPU.
Manifold The manifold combines the pressurized hydraulic output of the discrete
pump assemblies, and provides the hydraulic connection to your hydraulic
system. The manifold contains the high/low pressure solenoid valve and a
nonadjustable relief valve set at 22.4 MPa (3250 psi). Check valves are
located within the manifold to prevent pressurized hydraulic fluid from
being forced back through the pumps.
The hydraulic power unit uses solenoid-operated valves to control when

high-pressure is available to the hydraulic circuit. Start/low/high control
settings are selected at the operator interface on the electrical enclosure’s
front panel.
The HPU is designed to start in low pressure which reduces the amperage
needed for starting and extends the life of the pump and motor. When
operating at this setting, low-pressure hydraulic fluid circulates back to
reservoir through the manifold. The direct fluid path back to the reservoir
limits pressure and flow available out to the external hydraulic circuit.
When high pressure is selected, the unit forces pressurized hydraulic fluid
out to the hydraulic circuit.
Accumulator option Accumulators can be added to the hydraulic output lines to damp pressure
line fluctuations. This option accommodates one pressure line accumulator.
Filtering Hydraulic fluid returning to the reservoir is filtered by a full flow 3-micron
element. This ensures the filtering of all hydraulic fluid whether it travels
out through the circuit or returns by way of the unit’s manifold under low
pressure. Filter element loading is monitored automatically. A warning
registered on the unit’s operator interface signals when the filter needs an
element change.

Heat exchanger Hydraulic fluid temperature is maintained with a high efficiency stainless
steel heat exchanger that cools the fluid. A regulating valve monitors the
temperature of the hydraulic fluid and adjusts the flow of water through
the plates.
• The normal operating temperature range of the hydraulic fluid is

16–49°C (60–120°F).
• If the hydraulic fluid temperature exceeds 55ºC (131ºF), a switch

opens and shuts down the HPU.
• When the HPU is shut off, the flow of water is automatically stopped
by a shutoff solenoid valve.
Electrical control The HPU can be controlled locally using the operator interface, or remotely
through a controller via the J1 connector. A PLC (programmable logic
controller) manages the electrical systems within the HPU. The electrical
system includes the following:
• An operator interface that contains a keypad to program preferences

and operational settings. The operator interface also provides displays
of the unit’s condition, including motors status, hydraulic fluid level
and temperature conditions, and filter condition.
• Wye-delta starting reduces the initial current rush when the motor
starters are engaged.
• Thermal overloads protect the individual HPU motors from excessive

current draw.
• A latchable Emergency Stop button prevents inadvertent starts.
• Interlocks protect the HPU against low hydraulic fluid level,

overtemperature, and dirty filters.
• A reset button brings the unit back into operation after a fault has
been detected and corrected.
• A dirty filter signal will not shut the unit down, but will prevent the
unit from starting.
• Hour meters provided for each pump/motor assembly help you

determine maintenance intervals.
• A power disconnect switch located on the electrical enclosure’s door
ensures power is removed whenever the door is opened. This device
is both an ETL and TÜV certified lockable, main-disconnect switch.
Note The electrical schematics for the Model 505.60/.90 and Model 505.120-
180 are located in the “Appendix” on page 47. The difference between
the models is the number of pump assemblies.

Run-on-demand The run-on-demand (R-O-D) option will turn individual pumps on and off
option as needed to accommodate the systems demand for hydraulic fluid. A PLC
monitors the fluid flow, when flow changes beyond preset limits, a pump
will be turned on or off as needed.
For example, if 5 pumps are enabled, a total capacity of about 550 L/m is
available. Suppose the fluid flow is 400 L/m. The auto demand feature will
run four pumps. When the fluid flow increases to a user defined trigger
point, the fifth pump automatically starts to meet the increased fluid
demand.
In addition to the front panel hour meters, the PLC also monitors the
running time (hours) of each pump. When hydraulic power is applied, the
HPU checks the running time of the enabled pumps and starts pumps with
the lowest running time.

Installation
This section describes how to install the Series 505.60–.180 Hydraulic
Power Unit (HPU).
Note These HPUs are designed for indoor use and should be installed
accordingly.
1. Position the hydraulic power unit.
You should determine where to put the HPU. Because it is connected

to the other hydraulic equipment through hydraulic lines, the HPU can
be located anywhere. Consider the following:
• The HPU can fit through a standard 1.04-m or 41-in door.
• The HPU can be moved by a fork lift, pallet jack, or over head
crane.
• Placement considerations should include proximity to the facility

electric power and the hydraulic components. (Positioning the
HPU close to the hydraulic components can reduce the cost of
hydraulic distribution.)
• The HPU produces less than 70 dB (A) of noise under free field
conditions and fully compensated. Readings can vary with the
acoustic environment.
When moving the HPU with an

overhead lift, use a spreader bar
to help balance the weight.
When moving the HPU with

a fork lift or pallet jack, lift
the HPU from both ends.

2. Connect the electrical service to the HPU.
Note Local electrical codes supersede any information found here.
Electrical connections must be made by qualified personnel and

conform to local codes and regulations.
The electrical box has a power disconnect switch that must be off (O)
in order to open the electrical box. An electrical service panel to
provide the electrical power feed (line voltage) to the HPU is not
necessary, but can be required by local electrical codes.

3. Connect the hydraulic and water lines.
Each port is labeled on the manifold. Take care to identify and

correctly make these connections. Failure to make proper connection
could lead to water in the hydraulic fluid, hydraulic fluid in the
cooling water, or pressurization of low pressure lines.
The HPU requires connection to a suitable water supply to cool the

hydraulic fluid. The differential pressure required between the HPU
water inlet and outlet connections is 0.2 to 0.3 MPa (30 to 45 psi). The
maximum allowable water inlet pressure is 0.8 MPa (120 psi).

A. Connect the hydraulic pressure and drain lines to the hydraulic

fluid distribution system or directly to a hydraulic device. Use
hydraulic line or hose that is rated to handle the maximum
hydraulic pressure of the HPU.
B. An appropriate shutoff valve should be installed between the

water source and HPU.
C. Connect the water supply to the HPU Water In port. Connect the
Water Out port to your drain line.
D. A regulating valve must be adjusted according to your waters

Operation
The hydraulic power unit (HPU) can be operated locally using the controls
on the operator interface or remotely using an industrial or test system
controller.
Local operation 1. Make a general inspection of the HPU. Ensure that all cooling water
valves are open. Ensure the Emergency Stop button is released.
2. Press the Run key to start the pumps. The pumps start sequentially to
prevent an electrical overload. Each pump is in standby until its turn
to start. When first started the HPU produces low hydraulic pressure.
3. Check the HPU for leaks and unusual sounds. Stop the HPU
immediately if leaks or unusual sounds are noted. Determine the
cause and fix the problem before restarting the HPU.
4. Press the Pressure key to turn on high hydraulic pressure.

Note If the HPU generates an interlock during operation (low fluid level or high
temperature), the HPU will stop. Once the cause has been corrected,
press the Reset key before restarting.
Note Run the HPU for about 30 minutes or until the hydraulic fluid is up to
operating temperature before using your test system.
5. To stop the HPU, press the Stop key.
Remote operation Remote operation can occur at a remote control panel or from your
controller. The controller must be connected to the HPU (see Step 7 on
page 22).
1. Make a general inspection of the HPU. Ensure that all cooling water
valves are open. Ensure the Emergency Stop button is released.
2. Start the HPU at your controller. If the HPU does not start, you might
need to press the Remote key of the operator interface.
3. Check the HPU for leaks and unusual sounds. Stop the HPU
immediately if leaks or unusual sounds are noted. Determine the
cause and fix the problem before restarting the HPU.
4. Select high pressure at your system controller.

Note If the HPU generates an interlock during operation (low fluid level or high
temperature), the HPU will be stopped. Once the cause has been
corrected, press the Reset key before restarting.
Note Run the HPU for about 30 minutes or until the hydraulic fluid is up to
operating temperature before using your test system.
5. Stop the HPU with the controller.

Recovering from an Interlock
This section describes how to reset each type of HPU interlock. If a fault
occurs (Low Level, Overtemperature, Dirty Filter), the HPU will not start.
The source of the interlock must be corrected before using the HPU.
Low level The operator interface displays OIL LEV when the hydraulic fluid falls
below the setting of the low level/overtemperature sensor which is
mounted to the top of the reservoir. Perform the following to correct a low
level interlock:
1. Determine the cause for the low fluid level and correct it.
2. Add hydraulic fluid to the reservoir (see “Hydraulic fluid” on page 11)
for the recommended fluids).
3. Press the Reset key to clear the interlock and change the unit status
back to NORMAL.
Overtemperature The operator interface displays OVRTEMP when the temperature exceeds
54°C (130°F). The temperature is detected by the low level/
overtemperature sensor mounted on the reservoir. The HPU cannot be
restarted until the fluid has cooled. Perform the following to correct an
overtemperature interlock:
1. Check the temperature of the hydraulic fluid. You can monitor the
temperature in the operator interface display.
2. Determine if the hydraulic fluid is receiving adequate cooling.
• The cooling water inlet temperature affects the efficiency of

cooling the hydraulic fluid. See “Changing the Water Flow” on
page 31.
• Check the cooling water inlet-to-outlet pressure differential. It

should be between 0.24–0.31 MPa (35–45 psi). Adjust the water
pressure at its source.
3. If necessary, cool the hydraulic fluid. You can circulate hydraulic fluid
through the heat exchanger to cool the fluid.
4. Press the Reset key to clear the interlock and turn the indicator off.
Dirty filter The operator interface displays FILTER when the filter capacity has
reached a critical level. A dirty filter condition will prevent the HPU from
being started, but it will not stop the HPU while it is running.
1. Replace the hydraulic fluid filter. See “Replacing the Filter” on page 36.
2. Press the Reset key to clear the interlock and turn the indicator off.

Changing the Water Flow
Water is used to maintain hydraulic fluid temperature. The water regulating
valve, located on the water inlet line of the HPU senses the hydraulic fluid
temperature and automatically controls water flow to the heat exchanger.
Note When the HPU is turned off, a solenoid valve also shuts off the flow of
water to the heat exchanger.
The valve is adjusted at MTS Systems Corporation to maintain the hydraulic

fluid temperature at 43°C (110°F). However, the temperature of your water
might require you to readjust the regulator.
Water Inlet Water Regulating Valve Solenoid Valve Filter Assembly
Perform the following steps to set the operating temperature of the

hydraulic fluid.
1. Start the HPU and switch to the high-pressure mode.
2. Observe the temperature on the display of the operator interface as

the hydraulic fluid temperature rises. Note the temperature where the
hydraulic fluid stabilizes.
3. Adjust the water-regulating valve. One full turn (360°) of the adjusting
screw produces a change in hydraulic fluid temperature a few
degrees.
• Adjust the screw clockwise to decrease the operating

temperature.
• Adjust counterclockwise to increase the operating temperature.
4. Note the effect after 15 minutes.
5. Repeat Step 3 and Step 4 until the hydraulic fluid temperature

stabilizes between 41°C–43°C (105°F–110°F).

Resetting the Thermal Overloads
Each incoming electrical power feed line has a thermal overload switch. If
any line becomes too hot, its thermal switch trips and disconnects the
hydraulic power unit (HPU) from the electrical power feed.
Additional protection is provided by line fuses (FU1–FU3 for the Model

505.60/.90 and FU1-FU18 for the Model 505.120–.180) and transformer
fuses (FU19–FU21). These cartridge-type fuses must be replaced with fuses
of the same size, type, and rating which vary according to the voltage
configuration.
A tripped thermal overload or a blown fuse indicates a potential short

circuit, too much heat in the electrical box, or a component failure
(mechanical or electrical).
Transformer Fuses
FU19–FU21
Line Fuses
FU1–FU9
or
FU1–FU18
Thermal Overloads
Reset the thermal overload switches or replace the fuses as follows:
1. On the front panel, turn the main disconnect switch counterclockwise

to remove power from the electrical control box.
2. Loosen the two bolts securing the door of the electrical enclosure and
open the door.
3. Locate the thermal overload switch. Press the Reset key to clear the
switch. If thermal overload switch trips again, wait until the switch
cools.

Setting Up the Run-On-Demand Parameters
The run-on-demand (R-O-D) option automatically starts or stops pumps to
meet the hydraulic flow demand from the system. The PLC monitors the
hydraulic fluid flow; when the flow changes beyond a trigger point for a
set period of time, one of the pumps is turned on or off.
From the main display screen, press the Display key for about ten
seconds. When the display shows the setup screen, press the right arrow
key to show the auto demand screen.

1. Turn off the HPU. Ensure that the hydraulic pressure is at zero before
proceeding.
2. Unlock and open the cover next to the electrical enclosure to access
the filter.
3. Release the clamp securing the cover to the head assembly.

Note You will need a minimum clearance of 712 mm (28 in) above the filter
housing to remove the filter. You will also need a container to catch oil
dripping off the filter assembly.
4. Use the “T” handle to pull the filter cartridge assembly out of the filter
tube. Be careful not to spill any hydraulic fluid.
5. Replace the O-ring(s) seals in the bypass valve assembly and under
the cover.
6. Unscrew the “T” handle from the cartridge rod and remove the filter
cartridge.
7. Install a new filter on the cartridge rod and secure it with the “T”
handle.
8. Install the filter cartridge assembly into the head assembly and into the
filter tube.
9. Replace the cover and clamp it to the head assembly.
10. Turn on the HPU and switch to high-pressure mode. Inspect the seal
between the housing, filter, and cover for any signs of leakage. If
leakage occurs, repeat this procedure (without replacing the filter
element). If leakage persists, contact MTS Systems Corporation (see
“Contact information” on page 2).

Sampling the Hydraulic Fluid
This section describes how to check the quality of the hydraulic fluid.
Review the following
• Avoid contamination.
– Keep the sample bottle in the storage box of the hydraulic fluid
sampling kit until it is needed.
– Do not remove the cap from the bottle until immediately before
taking the sample.
– Do not set the set the cap down on a dirty surface or in an area
where airborne dust can settle.
• For additional information on hydraulic fluid care, see the Hydraulic

Fluid Care Guide (part number 050-000-536) found in the
documentation package inside the electrical control box.
• Hold the hose valve assembly still when taking a sample.
• Do not let the sample line in the bottle or let it touch the mouth of the
bottle.
Prerequisite You will need a hydraulic fluid sampling kit (MTS part number
055-589-601).
Procedure Refer to the following drawing during the procedure:
Hose Valve Assembly
Sample Port
Control Manifold

1. Operate the HPU until the hydraulic fluid is at operating temperature
(about 30 minutes).
2. Connect the hose valve assembly (to the sample port located on the
hydraulic manifold on top of the HPU.
3. Flush 1 liter (1 quart) of hydraulic fluid though the sampling assembly.

This fluid can directed to a waste container or back into the HPU
reservoir.
Open the valve on the hose valve assembly to begin flushing.
4. Obtain a sample of the hydraulic fluid after flushing the valve hose
assembly.
Without closing the valve, quickly place the sample bottle into the
fluid stream (keep the sample bottle sealed until the sample is to be
taken).
5. Fill the sample bottle (175 mL/6 oz) with fluid. Close the valve on the
hose valve assembly and cap the sample bottle.
6. Check the fluid qualities. It is a good idea to keep a small jar of clean
hydraulic fluid for comparison purposes. Review the following:
• Considerable darkness, burnt odor, or an opaque quality of the

fluid indicates chemical breakdown. Replace the fluid.
Considerable darkness also may indicate that the fluid has been
allowed to rise above the maximum recommended temperature
(severe overheating). If this is the case, replace the fluid and flush
the entire system to remove varnish or residue.
• A milky appearance indicates water is present in the fluid. Correct

the source of the water leakage and replace the fluid.
• After allowing the sample to stand overnight, sediment at the

bottom of the sample container indicates collapsed, ruptured, or
clogged filter(s) in the system. Replace the fluid and all filter
elements.
7. If there still is any uncertainty regarding fluid quality, obtain another

sample of the fluid and have it analyzed. The fluid tests should include
chemical analysis, particle count, and viscosity checks. Most oil
companies have facilities for performing these tests or consult MTS
Systems Corporation.
8. Remove the hose and valve assembly.

Replacing the Hydraulic Fluid
The following procedure describes how to replace the hydraulic fluid in
the reservoir.
Note For additional information on hydraulic fluid care, see the Maintenance
