Hydraulically Actuated

Hydraulically Actuated
  • Configurable auxiliary pump drives
  • Engine interface via J1939
  • Optional graphical user interface (GUI)
  • Smart electronic controls for smooth, reliable engagement and equipment protection

When you need a disconnect between the driven equipment and the prime mover, choose self-adjusting Twin Disc hydraulic PTOs. They support maximum side loads for increased efficiency and decreased vibration, yet take up little space thanks to a compact design.
