Shop MiniBooster HC4-A Hydraulic Intensifiers without Dump Valve

The miniBOOSTER HC4-A hydraulic intensifier, also called a hydraulic pressure booster, is a compact, high-flow inline unit that converts an existing low-pressure hydraulic supply into higher outlet pressure. The HC4-A is the A-model configuration without an integrated dump valve, so high pressure must be relieved externally, typically through a properly sized pilot-operated check valve. This configuration is especially useful with large-bore hydraulic cylinders that produce high return flow better handled outside the booster. The HC4 family offers 11 intensification ratios from 1.3:1 to 9.8:1, accepts inlet pressures from 20 to 207 bar (290 to 3,000 psi), and produces outlet pressures up to 800 bar (11,600 psi), with intensified flow up to 17.4 L/min (4.6 GPM), depending on the selected ratio. Applications include hydraulic presses, large cylinders, workholding and clamping, machine tools, pressure-testing systems, bolt tensioning and industrial automation requiring higher pressure and greater flow.


The HC4-A provides localized high pressure without a separate high-pressure pump or power unit, helping reduce system size, piping, energy use, noise and equipment cost. It automatically stops intensifying when the required pressure is reached and restarts if pressure falls because of fluid consumption or leakage. Warning: The HC4-A has no integrated dump valve or internal means of relieving trapped high pressure. The circuit must include a correctly designed and appropriately sized external pressure-release method capable of handling the expected return flow. Never assume the high-pressure side has been depressurized; confirm zero pressure with a properly rated gauge before service. Select the intensification ratio using maximum inlet pressure, return backpressure, required outlet pressure and flow demand, and ensure all hoses, fittings, valves, gauges, seals and actuators are rated for the maximum possible intensified pressure. Installation must be performed by qualified hydraulic personnel.
