Axial Piston Pumps
Kawasaki has been producing axial piston pumps for more than 50 years and leads the world in terms of pump efficiency and performance. The K3VLS series (designed for open circuit systems in industrial vehicles) and K8V series (for closed circuit applications and hydrostatic transmissions) are the latest products to join the Kawasaki axial piston pump range.

K3VL
The K3VL series swash plate type axial piston pumps are designed to satisfy a variety of construction and off-highway applications where a medium to high pressure variable displacement pump is required.
- 28 to 200cc displacements
- 320 bar continuous pressure rating
- Load sensing, torque limiting and electronic displacement control
- Integral impellor pump available on 200cc unit

K3VLS
Kawasaki’s medium duty pump, the K3VLS, has been developed for machines and equipment that use a load sensing control system and/or electric displacement control systems. Its launch follows extensive research and development as our engineers combined efficiency with simplicity to deliver the most technologically advanced pump on the market.
- 50, 65, 85, 105, 125 & 150cc displacements
- 280 bar continuous pressure rating
- 350 bar maximum pressure rating
- Load sensing, torque limiting, power shift and electronic displacement controls

K3V/K5V/K7V
The K3V/K5V/K7V pump range has been specifically designed to meet the demands of hydraulic excavators and other mobile machinery. The introduction of the K7V offers a step change in hydraulic pump efficiency.
- 63 to 212cc displacements available
- 350 bar continuous pressure rating
- Single, tandem and parallel versions
- Wide range of power, pressure and displacement controls available.

K3VG
The K3VG series are swash-plate type axial piston pumps which give excellent performance in high flow industrial applications in a compact and cost-effective package.
- 63 to 280cc displacements available
- 350 bar continuous pressure rating
- Common suction port
- Extensive range of highly responsive control options

K7VG
The K7VG series of high-pressure swash plate type pumps was developed for general industrial machinery use. The adoption of the high-load bearings and friction-free contacting mechanism of piston shoes, results in a high level of reliability and long life.
- 180 and 265cc displacements
- 350 bar continuous pressure rating
- Long bearing life
- ISO Mount and Shaft
- Optional through-drive
- Highly responsive controls

K7SP
Swash plate type split flow axial piston pump.
- Compact split flow type
- High reliability with reinforcing rotary parts
- Low noise valve plate
- Option to have common-suction type gear pump

K8V
The K8V series is Kawasaki’s closed loop pump with excellent controllability and superior efficiency. It is used in hydrostatic transmissions ona variety of off-highway machinery.
- 71, 90 and 125cc displacements
- 400 bar rated pressure
- Electronic and hydraulic displacement control
- Through drive and tandem versions available

K-Axle
The K-Axle is the all new high speed electric motor and pump unit for construction vehicles. A scalable 50cc single or tandem unit able to operate at speeds of up to 5,000 rpm
- Compact size
- High efficiency
- Highly flexible

K3VR/K3VL Eco Servo System
The K3VR/K3VL Eco Servo electro-hydraulic hybrid system is particularly suitable for use in industrial applications. It allows the speed of the hydraulic pump to be controlled through the use of an electric motor, depending on the power required. This leads to high efficiency, increased energy savings and improved controllability.
The Eco Servo covers a wide range of displacements, making the most of the high performance hydraulic pumps with the capacity of high pressure, low fluctuation and high efficiency.
