THIRD GENERATION - Digital Hydraulic Tester

Webtec, a global specialist manufacturer of hydraulic measurement and control products, will showcase the new third generation of its class-leading DHT digital hydraulic tester designed to assist hydraulic technicians with reactive, proactive and preventive maintenance. Measuring flow, pressure and temperature the DHT has a built-in loading valve to simulate load. This rugged tool - a workhorse of the hydraulic testing arena - features a number of key improvements to enhance both its robustness and ease-of-use when checking the performance of hydraulic pumps, motors, valves and hydrostatic transmissions.

To meet the growing demand from customers operating in extremely dusty and wet environments, the DHT-series portable tester now offers a protection rating to IP65.

The DHT has enhanced display functionality, which is almost three times larger than the previous-generation model, presenting easier-to-read flow digits. In addition, users can select their preferred engineering units via convenient panel buttons.

Other additional improvements include the introduction of: a battery power gauge (low power consumption means the DHT provides 230 hours of continuous use per 9V battery); a service interval reminder; internal temperature monitoring for sensitive components; and an operational limit warning (LED) when measuring high temperature fluids up to 120°C.
