each use, an inspection be done by 

qualified

 personnel and 

that any missing or damaged parts, decals, warning/ safety 
labels or signs be replaced with BVA Hydraulics authorized 
replacement parts only. Any pump that appears to be damaged
in any way, is worn, leaking or operates abnormally shall be 
removed from service immediately until such time as repairs 
can be made. Any pump that has been or suspected to have 
been subject to a shock  load (a load dropped suddenly, 
causing the system pressure to exceed 10,000 PSI), shall 
be removed from service immediately until checked out by 
a BVA Hydraulics authorized service center.  Owners  and

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

BVA Hydraulics Air Hydraulic Pumps are engineered to meet 
most Industrial Standards for Performance and Safety. Its
unique hydraulic circuit

allows quick displacement of hydraulic

fluid

 under no load conditions and easy pumping in loaded 

conditions. These  air actuated pumps supply compressed 
hydraulic

fluid

 to compatible applications i.e. rams, presses, 

spreaders, compactors  and crimping machines, anywhere
that  10,000 PSI of 

fluid

pressure is needed. 

Special skill,

knowledge and training may be required for a 

specific

 task 

and the product may not be suitable for all the jobs described 
above.  Unsuitable applications would include applications
that call for a device to move,  level or support  persons,
animals,  hazardous materials, mobile homes/  dwellings in 
general, mirrors and/or plate glass, and/or to connect/secure 
hatches,  components,  etc.  between bulkheads. The user 
must ultimately make the decision regarding suitability of the 
product for any given task and assume the responsibility of 
safety for himself or herself  and others in the work area.

WARNING:

To reduce the risk of personal injury and/or

property damage, ensure that the rated working pressure of 
each pressurized attachment be equal to or greater than the 
rated working pressure developed by the hydraulic pump.

Always check connections before using. Alteration 

of these products  is strictly prohibited.  Use only those
adapters and attachments  provided and approved by the 
manufacturer.
