Hydro-Calculator Spreadsheet
Revision 2008-12-23, v1.1
(c) 2008-2014 by Power-Trax.de - unauthorized usage will be prosecuted.

This Spreadsheet is the 'light' version of what here at Power-Trax.de is being used to calculate and design hydraulic
systems.
You can use it to calculate
- hydraulic pumps
- hydraulic motors
- pump-engine-compounds
- pump-PTO-compounds w/ intermediate gearbox up to 5-speed
- hydraulic pistons - even multiple
- hydraulic winches at arbitrary hydraulic systems
Simply insert given values into the LIGHT BLUE fields.
The GREEN FIELDS will calculate missing parameters for your hydraulic system.
TERMS OF USE & DISCLAIMER
- use at your own risk. We are not responsible for errors or mistakes within calculations or respective results or actions or system
designs or -failures based on these calculations. No guarantee whatsoever.
- this spreadsheet is a version with reduced functionality. Important key numbers needed to design a system are MISSING. You
will need to seek professional assistance from us to have a hydraulic system being calculated and built.
- this spreadsheet only gives rough guidelines for hydraulic equipment
- there is no feasibility checking whether calculated pumps, PTOs or other units will work in this configuration
