Installation and Operations Manual — 611X Series HPU ORIENTATION Figure 1 Orients you to the basic components of the 6118 & 6119 series HPU: The HPU contains HIGH VOLTAGE components that can cause serious injury or death. Only trained service technicians should attempt any repair.
Installation and Operations Manual — 611X Series HPU ORIENTATION The power switch should be turned off any time the unit is serviced. Do not restore power to the unit until all traffic and pedestrians have been cleared from harm’s way. 1.1.2 Flow Control Valve The flow control valve(s) are located on the manifold and are used to control the amount of flow of hydraulic fluid both to and from the barrier under control.
Installation and Operations Manual — 611X Series HPU ORIENTATION 1.1.10 Accumulator The accumulator acts as a pressure reservoir to store pressurized fluid. The electric pump pressurizes the accumulator and the accumulator provides a high volume of pressurized fluid in a short period of time. 1.1.11 Pump The pump is mechanically connected to the electric motor and provides the required pumping pressure to charge the accumulator.

As a reference, use environmentally safe oil Mobil EAL 224 or equivalent when adding hydraulic oil to the HPU. CAUTION: The hydraulic system when in operation is under extreme pressure.
Installation and Operations Manual — 611X Series HPU INSTALLATION 2.4 Electrical Connections DANGER: High voltage electrical components are located in the Hydraulic Pumping Unit (HPU) cabinet. Service by qualified technicians only. The electrical connections required for proper operation include power and control. The power is required to drive the motor and power the PLC while the control voltage is 24VDC and is used to power the inputs.
Installation and Operations Manual — 611X Series HPU INSTALLATION CAUTION: For your safety, complete each of these steps before operating the barrier! Verify unit has hydraulic fluid to recommended level. Verify control unit is plugged in and cable is routed clear of barrier operation. Verify area is clear of personnel and other obstructions.
