Electronic Systems

Hydralectric designs and develops electronic controls from your initial ideas to your complete specifications. We work in close partnership with our customers to ensure that projects are completed on time and within the agreed budget. Our offshore BEAB approved design and manufacturing facility allows us to provide sub-contracted electronic assembly which includes SMD from three production lines and through-hole from four other production lines.

From design conception to mass production, we offer a full, turn-key design and manufacturing service of standard electronic controls, motor speed controls and temperature controls. All our controls are tested using our specialised EMC pre-compliance service from our UK research and development facility.



Drain and Distribution Pumps

Hydralectric stocks a variety of permanent magnet synchronous pumps which have a wet rotor chamber which means a mechanical water seal is not needed. These pumps are supplied with a range of pump housings with an integral filter which gives an output of 20 to 36 litres per minute at a dynamic pressure of 0.1 bar. Usually applied in drainage and distribution systems such as dishwashers, glass washers, water boilers, humidifiers and ice makers.

High pressure CP3 pumps

  • Pressure Pumps - This solenoid pump delivers an output of 300ml per minute at 6 bar pressure. This range possesses a class II double insulated system that has an integrated diode converter. These pumps are often used in vending machines, espresso machines, coffee machines and steam irons.
  • Low pressure CP6 Pumps - With a dynamic output of 950ml/min at 0.7 bar, this range of solenoid pumps have a class II double insulated system and an integrated diode convertor. Typically used in carpet cleaners, vending machines, steam generators, dosing applications, and dental and medical equipment.


Low Pressure PI Pumps

An output of 1200ml per minute is achieved using a high efficiency piston pump. Available with right-angled and straight through port connections, this pump has a high resilience to dead head pressures and dry running without requiring temperature protection. Though supplied with an integrated diode convertor for operation with AC voltages, we can offer a separate frequency convertor for DC appliances if requested.

These pumps are often used in carpet cleaners, steam generators, vending machines, dosing equipment, as well as dental and medical equipment.



High Flow Induction & Micro Pumps

  • High Flow Induction Pumps - With a powerful 650 watt capacitor start induction motor drive and a mechanical rotary seal, this is a high performance centrifugal pump. The pump housing is manufactured from a strong polypropylene with maximum clearance for the free flow of water and waste products. An incredible 200 litres per minute can be pumped at a dynamic pressure of 0.5 bar. Often used for dishwashers, glass washers, mascerators and other commercial appliances.
  • Micro Pumps - Combining the action of the piston and diaphragm, this small pump generates an output of 50ml at 5 watts. A high flow pump with an output of 100ml at 7 watts is also available. These pumps are typically used in steam cookers, steam irons, steam generators, rinse aids and soap dispensers.


Hoses

Hydralectric manufactures a range of flexible hoses designed for a variety of applications. These include; Gas Industrial Caterhoses, Industrial water hoses, tap connectors, water hoses for building services, and washing machine hoses.

Vending Hoses - Hydravend hose assemblies, coils and tubing - designed and guaranteed to deliver safe drinking water for use in a wide range of applications.



Cross flow Blowers

With an impeller diameter of 60mm and available in 120mm and 180mm lengths, our fans are guaranteed to be quiet and have a long-life bearing system. Powered using a 25 watt shaded pole motor which may be mounted from left to right and can be rotated 360 degrees, these blowers are manufactured on a cutting edge automated assembly line which gives a consistent product quality and performance. Our cross flow blowers are generally used in electric, gas and hot air ovens, fan heaters and convectors.

A variety of motors and fans are available

  • Hot Air Fan Motor - constructed for even distribution of hot air within domestic and commercial oven systems, these fans are powered using a high temperature C frame shaded pole motor. Options are available for the material and style of these fans.
  • Universal Motors - Designed to each customer's required speed, torque and power, these motors are produced on a fully automated production line with established quality systems. These motors are typically used in high pressure pumps, garden equipment, handyman tools and food mixers.
  • Universal Motor and gear box - Tailored range of series wound universal motors with integrated diecast gearbox system operating on a 6 to 1 ratio. Manufactured using sintered metal for a longer lifespan.
