Hydro Mounts

 For Securely Mounted Vehicle Cabins.

  • Hydro mounts combine elastomeric and viscous liquid damping technology to reduce cabin noise and vibration. 

  • Increasing safety and comfort for the user, particularly in heavy duty applications.

  • Products differ in size, features and weight, to suit different applications. 

 

TECHNICAL PROPERTIES

Hydro mounts combine elastomeric and viscous liquid damping technology to reduce cabin noise and vibration. The result is noticeable and demonstrably superior to conventional elastomeric mounts. Hydro mounts are versatile, since the mounts can be adapted precisely to the requirements at hand. Our customers benefit from a quieter workspace, less vibration and shocks inside the cabin, as well as lower costs due to the obsolescence of reinforcing material and welding points on the cabin.

 

APPLICATIONS

Hydro mounts are mainly designed for the vibration and impact isolation of cabins and engines of industrial vehicles, such as construction, farming and municipal machinery.

The operating principle of our hydro mounts is simple and safe. The spring deflection needed for optimal vibration isolation is maximized by the low axial rigidity of the elastomer carrier body. At the same time, the lateral stability of the system is ensured through a relatively high radial rigidity.

Compared to elastomer-based mounts, the damping effect of hydro mounts is very strong. Hydro mounts are particularly effective when an engine is started or turned off. This notably increases operating comfort, while fulfilling stringent requirements with respect to breakage protection and longevity.

 

PROPERTIES & ADVANTAGES

  • Operating Comfort
    Vibration is significantly reduced. The noise drops by up to 5-10 dB(A).

  • Reliability
    Multiple times more effective than conventional elastomerbased mounts, while being more effective in the temperature range between -40°F and +175°F . (-40° C and +80° C) .

  • Effectiveness
    Cost savings due to the obsolescence of reinforcements and welding points on the cabin. No damage to the cabin when driving in rough terrain.

  • Efficiency
    Vibration decay time of the cabin can be reduced by up to 50%.

Stress on the driver is lowered due to optimized comfort, thereby increasing performance and driving safety. This is achieved by decoupling the dampers from the chassis and using Hydro mounts for cabin suspension.
