JCB JS160 JS180 hydraulic pump

The exact hydraulic pump model for your JCB JS160  and JS180 excavators might differ slightly, but here's a breakdown of what to expect

Pump Model

Kawasaki K5V or K3V Series  These are common choices for JCB excavators in this range, known for their reliability and efficiency.

JS160 AUTO The JS160 AUTO might utilize the K5V80DTP (displacement 80 ccrev) pump due to its potential for slightly higher flow requirements compared to the standard JS160.

JS180 The JS180 might use a larger pump like the K3V112DTP (displacement 112 ccrev) to accommodate its increased power demands.

Important Note This is based on general information and might not be entirely accurate for your specific excavators.
