HYDRAULIC
MULTIPLIERS
If more sets of hydraulic remotes are needed, and cost is a concern, a patented SLS Hydraulic Multiplier Kit is the answer. The Multiplier re-directs the flow of hydraulic fluid from an existing remote to the hydraulic function(s) needed. A particular function is selected by push-button switch. The flow is controlled with the existing hydraulic control lever for the remote that the Multiplier is connected to.
The Multiplier is mounted and quick coupled to an existing set of remotes with hydraulic hoses. A control handle with push-button switches is mounted on the existing hydraulic remotes control lever and is connected to the electric over hydraulic Multiplier valve, and to a 12V battery, with electrical cable. The required functions are then quick coupled to the additional Multiplier remotes. This eliminates the expensive process of plumbing additional remotes/Joysticks into the hydraulic pump, giving you fingertip control over your hydraulic cylinders without sacrificing any of the fine oil flow control you currently have.
A single set of hydraulic remotes can be multiplied to up to 4 sets of remotes per control handle with out remodeling your tractor. The Multiplier is modular, which allows remotes to be added as the need arises. Start off with a basic Multiplier kit, (which turns a single set of hydraulic remotes into 2); install an Add-on kit whenever a new set of hydraulic remotes is needed. Keep the Multiplier by simply disconnecting it if the tractor is sold.
Each
Basic Multiplier kit includes:
 |
Two cast iron electric over hydraulic valves. |
|
One molded heavy duty Duraprine Control handle. |
|
4 heavy duty, environmentally sealed momentary switches. |
|
8 feet of all weather16 AWG electrical cable with connectors. |
|
Bracket for mounting the Control Handle. |
|
Brackets for mounting the Multiplier. |
|
ORB to pipe fittings for quick couplers. |
|
Installation instructions. |
Basic Hydraulic Multiplier kit multiplies one set of hydraulic remotes into two sets.
Additional parts required:
|
One set of hydraulic hoses with fittings to connect the Multiplier to the remote. |
|
A length of 16AWG wire and two connectors to connect the Multiplier to a 12 volt power source. |
|
Extra quick couplers for additional remotes. |
| Total number of remotes possible per control handle | 4 sets |
| Shipping Weight (Basic multiplier kit) |
23lbs (add 10lbs for each additional set of remotes) |
| Press 2 (or more) buttons at once |
2 (or more) outlets active |
All of the Multipliers’ remotes can be activated by pressing and holding down the switches, allowing you push button switching from one function to another, or tilt bucket, open/close grapple, raise/lower the loader, all at the same time.
USES: The SLS Hydraulic Multiplier can be used with almost any hydraulic system, whenever additional hydraulic remotes are needed, and are designed to work with those systems by restricting the oil flow as little as possible. The most common use by far is on tractors to control all of a front-end loaders functions with one hydraulic control lever. However the Multiplier has also been installed on tree-planting equipment, on truck hydraulics along with orbit motors to run jiffy loaders and bin sweeps. Multipliers are commonly used to control bale wagons, feed processors swathers, sectional discs, seed drills, sprayers, hay cutters, post hole augers, cultivators, air seeders and markers.

FEATURES of the Multiplier:
·
Saves time: press
a button instead of stopping to change hydraulic hoses
·
Easy to install: connects and disconnects
to your hydraulic system like an implement
·
EXPANDABLE: install an add-on kit for additional remotes
quickly and easily
·
convenient: fingertip selection
with the existing fine oil flow control
·
Saves money:
·
Less costly than plumbing remotes/joysticks
into your hydraulic system · Keep the Multiplier when the tractor is sold.
·
Unlimited mounting options reducing the need
for expensive hydraulic hose

MOUNTING ON AN IMPLEMENT: When the Multiplier is being used to control an implement having many hydraulic functions, it may be better to mount the Multiplier on the implement rather than near the remotes. When mounted this way only 2 long hydraulic hoses are needed between the remotes and the Multiplier and enough 16AWG cable (available through SLS) to connect the control handle on the hydraulic control lever to the Multiplier on the implement. Considerably shorter hydraulic hoses connect the Multiplier to the various implement hydraulic functions. You have the same control but with only 2 hoses and an electrical cable running from the remote to the implement. This means less cost and clutter. Leave the Multiplier on the implement and it’s ready to go after connecting only 2 hoses and the control handle.
Multipliers can be used as the primary hydraulic control unit on any implement having extensive hydraulic options. Mounting on the implement is especially attractive to equipment manufacturers who can offer Multipliers as an option to their customers whose existing hydraulic system is short of remotes. Our Multiplier system can be customized to fit the customer’s needs, not only at the time of sale but anytime in the future.
