Compact Lift Solution: KBS+S12‑2.1‑8L Hydraulic Power Unit

The KBS+S12‑2.1‑8L Hydraulic Power Unit is designed for mobile lifting tasks in trucks, lifts, and crane systems. With a 12 V DC motor rated at 1.6 kW and an 8 L square plastic oil tank, it offers solid performance in a compact layout. The unit supports double‑acting cylinders and comes with a 4.5 m wired, 3‑key remote handle. Because it fits easily and works smoothly, the unit adds real value to machines needing strong lift power without a lot of fuss.

Why Choose the KBS+S12‑2.1‑8L Hydraulic Power Unit?

If your machine needs a lift system that is easy to install, takes little space, and responds strongly, this unit delivers. It is particularly well suited to mobile equipment where battery power (12 V) is available and frame space is tight.

Compact for Tight Spaces

With overall dimensions of just 55 × 19.7 × 17 cm and weighing approximately 12.56 kg, this unit slips easily into truck beds, service vehicles, or compact platforms. The 8 L plastic tank keeps weight down and makes mounting simpler.

Strong Hydraulic Performance

Designed to support heavy lifting, the system uses a 1.6 kW motor and is rated up to 22 MPa working pressure. That means cylinders and attachments will move reliably—raising, tilting, or lifting as required.

Remote and Flexible Control

A wired remote with three keys gives simple user control over lifting, lowering and stopping. Because the remote is long‑reach (4.5 m), the operator can stay at a safe distance. The unit also supports wireless control options for added flexibility.

Ready for Double‑Acting Cylinders

For systems where both extension and retraction are powered, this unit supports double‑acting motion. That gives more precise control than relying on gravity or springs for the return stroke.

Key Features and Specs 

• Voltage: 12 V DC – Ideal for vehicle battery use

• Motor Power: 1.6 kW – Balanced for mobilised lifting

• Oil Tank Capacity: 8 L (square plastic tank) – Compact yet effective

• Rated Pressure: 22 MPa – Suitable for serious lifting work

• Control Mode: Wired 3‑key remote (4.5 m) with optional wireless

• Mounting Size: 55 × 19.7 × 17 cm; Weight: ~12.56 kg

• Actuation: Double‑acting cylinders supported

• Suitable Applications: Dump trucks, car lifts, service vehicles, cranes

• Warranty: 1 Year

Together, these specifications combine to offer a mobile‑friendly hydraulic solution.

How the Unit Works in Real‑World Use

Easy Installation

Because the unit is compact, you can mount it on the vehicle frame, inside a body compartment, or on a trailer mount. The square tank and horizontal layout make fitting easier while keeping centre‑of‑gravity lower.

Smooth Lifting Operations

With a properly mounted unit and the correct cylinder size, lifting and lowering become smooth. For instance, a car‑lift on a service truck will raise the vehicle steadily without jerky motion. The double‑acting system ensures controlled return motion too.

Operator‑Friendly Control

When the operator presses the lift button on the remote, the pump activates and fluid is sent to the cylinder. If the lower button is pressed, the return valve opens and the load is lowered. Because of the clean control interface, errors are fewer and training is simpler.

Maintenance and Care

Regular checks help the system run longer. You should monitor fluid levels in the 8 L tank, inspect hoses for wear or damage, and keep the remote lead clear of vehicle moving parts. The unit is designed to be approachable for maintenance even in mobile use.

Why This Unit Stands Out

You’ll favour the KBS+S12‑2.1‑8L Hydraulic Power Unit when you need a lift‑system solution that is compact, strong and easy to use. Instead of adding full‑size hydraulic modules, this unit offers a streamlined way to power your lifting equipment using standard vehicle power (12 V) and a small footprint.
Because it supports double‑acting motion and comes ready with control and tank, integration time is cut and machine build‑out becomes faster.

Final Thoughts

In summary, the KBS+S12‑2.1‑8L Hydraulic Power Unit is a great choice for compact machines needing strong hydraulic lift power. It brings a 12 V motor, 8 L tank, remote control and double‑acting capability into one unit that mounts easily and responds well. Whether you are fitting a service vehicle, installing a car lift, or equipping a mobile crane, this unit offers practical performance.
