Parker Chelsea releases new 870 series PTO

Parker Chelsea has introduced its new power take-off series. Parker says the new 870 series provides a compact housing that helps eliminate clearance issues, and two assembly arrangements are offered that maximize installation possibilities. High capacity bearings and superior gear designs are said to provide torque ratings up to 670 lbs.-ft. for ultimate performance, and Parker says there is no need to de-rate the PTO for continuous applications.

The 870 series is a 10-bolt mounting pattern that will fit on today’s popular automatic transmissions. It features six shift options, four of which are integrated into the PTO housing that require one hose for a simplified installation.

Parker says its electronic overspeed control (EOC) also is available to protect driven equipment. The PTO also has eight internal gear ratios that provide a wide variety of speeds to meet application requirements.

The direct mount pump flange options are available with the Wet Spline design, which Parker says provides increased PTO and pump shaft life.
