Who is Kracht and what does it make?

Kracht is a German company headquartered in Werdohl, founded in 1911 under the name Hillebrand & Kracht OHG, which develops and manufactures on site pumps, fluid measurement technology, hydraulic valves, hydraulic motors, flow dividers and complete lubrication and drive systems. The entire range is built with a high degree of vertical integration, from standard products to application-specific solutions, and the certifications include ISO 9001 and ISO 14001, while some of the flow meters also exist in ATEX variants.

For installations in Romania, the main interest is in volumetric flow meters. The VC gear series measures very small flows, down to the VC 0.01 model for micro-dosing, the SVC screw series is suited to viscous media with abrasive particles, and the TM turbine series measures water, coolants, emulsions and other media. Each series exists with electronics for a square-wave signal, with IO-Link or with an analogue current output, and for the VC there is also a maximised-resolution variant, of up to 13,157,896 pulses per litre.

Kracht flow meters are found on test benches for hydraulic components, in the indirect measurement of cylinder stroke, in dosing systems with two or more components and in marine and process installations. Because size, clearances, bearings and materials are chosen according to viscosity and flow, a quotation for replacement or extension starts from the code on the nameplate and from the data of the medium.

What do we supply from the Kracht range?

Product	Description
Gear flow meters, VC series	Volumetric flow meters with clearances, bearings and materials adapted to the application, used for generating the characteristic curves of hydraulic components, for indirect volumetric measurement of cylinder stroke and for dosing; VC 0.01 variant for very small flows.
Screw flow meters, SVC series	Flow meters with helical rotors, robust and accurate, with pulsation-free flow and a small pressure drop, suited to very viscous media with abrasive fillers, in process and test installations.
Turbine flow meters, TM series	Flow meters for water, coolants and lubricants, emulsions and other media with or without lubricating properties, available with square-wave electronics, IO-Link and analogue output, for cooling and process circuits.
KP gear pumps and flow dividers	KP high-pressure pumps with hydraulic axial clearance compensation, multiple pumps for pressing and injection and flow dividers for hydraulic drives, used in mobile and industrial machinery.

Why Kracht?

Volumetric flow meters with gears, screws and turbine: three measuring principles, so the choice is made according to the viscosity of the medium
The VC 0.01 series for micro-flows, dedicated to micro-dosing and the measurement of very small flows
Three signal types: pulses, IO-Link and analogue output, with flow direction indication
The SVC screw series: low sensitivity to impurities, pulsation-free and with a small pressure drop, suited to viscous media with abrasive particles
ATEX variants of the flow meters, relevant for installations with potentially explosive atmospheres

How do we supply Kracht in Romania?

We can quote Kracht flow meters from the VC, SVC and TM series, with the associated electronics, as well as gear pumps and other fluid power components, brought in made to order through import or through supply channels in the EU. The lead time is usually 1–4 weeks made to order; for special configurations it may be longer. For a correct quotation, send us the full code from the nameplate, the type of medium and its viscosity, the flow range, the working pressure and temperature, the signal type required (pulses, IO-Link or analogue) and the connection thread.

We determine the flow meter series on the basis of the viscosity and flow of the medium, and special variants are confirmed separately, case by case.

Frequently asked questions about Kracht

What does Kracht make?

Kracht manufactures pumps, volumetric flow meters, hydraulic valves (pressure relief and pressure control valves, control blocks), hydraulic motors, flow dividers, cylinders and dosing and oil supply systems. Gear, screw and turbine flow meters are frequently found in process installations.

How do I choose between a VC, SVC and TM flow meter?

The VC gear type is used for high-accuracy measurements on test benches, for dosing and for small flows, the SVC screw type for very viscous media or media with abrasive particles, and the TM turbine type for water, coolants and emulsions. Send us the medium, the viscosity, the minimum and maximum flow and the signal required.

Can you supply Kracht flow meters in Romania and how quickly?

Kracht flow meters can be brought in made to order, through import or through supply channels in the EU, usually in 1–4 weeks. Configurations with special electronics or adapted solutions may have longer lead times; in the quotation we fix the lead time once we have determined the series, size and signal type.

Can I replace a Kracht flow meter with a pulse signal with an IO-Link one?

The VC, SVC and TM series exist with electronics for a square-wave, IO-Link or analogue signal, but conversion requires checking the size, the connector and the controller input. Send the code from the nameplate and the wiring diagram, and we check the variant before the quotation.

What do I need to send for a quotation for a Kracht flow meter or pump?

For flow meters: the medium, viscosity, flow, pressure, temperature, signal and thread. For pumps: the geometric displacement, maximum pressure, speed, direction of rotation, mounting flange and medium. Any code from the nameplate of the existing unit speeds up the identification of the variant.

How do I request a Kracht quotation?

Send the Kracht code from the nameplate and the quantity; we reply in English with availability and the lead time written in the quotation.
