CLIN Nomenclature Part Number (P/N) Quantity 1 Hydraulic Power Unit (HPU) 5421 1 each 2 HPU Run-Around Kit KHC-4020 1 each

Hydraulic Power Units (HPU) are mobile sources of external hydraulic power that can be connected to an aircraft hydraulic system to provide power normally obtained from the aircraft hydraulic pumps. They provide a means of energizing the aircraft hydraulic systems for purposes of checkout and maintenance. These test stands are employed both on the flight line and in hangar work areas. HPUs are important tools in hydraulic contamination control as they provide the primary means of aircraft hydraulic decontamination. The HPU is designed to check the performance and operating characteristics of aircraft hydraulic systems. The HPU delivers hydraulic fluid at controlled pressures to operate hydraulic components without the necessity of starting the aircraft engine(s); test aircraft hydraulic systems for evidence of component malfunction and flow or pressure leakage; and decontaminate and service aircraft hydraulic systems with filtered hydraulic fluid.
