Mobile Fluid Power
Engineered Hydraulic Solutions for Mobile Equipment
Mobile equipment operates in changing conditions, tight spaces, and demanding environments. Loads shift, duty cycles vary, operators need responsive control, and every component must fit within the physical constraints of the machine.
FSC designs mobile fluid power systems around the way equipment actually works. Our team evaluates flow demand, pressure requirements, available horsepower, duty cycle, operator inputs, environmental conditions, and packaging constraints to develop hydraulic solutions that support reliable performance in the field.

System Design and Component Selection
Mobile hydraulic systems require careful coordination between power, motion, control, and packaging.
FSC works with customers to evaluate the complete application before selecting components or developing a hydraulic circuit.
Design considerations may include:
- Flow and pressure requirements
- Load demands and duty cycle
- Pump and motor sizing
- Drive sizing based on speed and tractive effort
- Cylinder sizing for force and motion requirements
- Valve selection
- Operator control requirements
- Machine layout and available space
Valve options may include:
- Sectional valves
- Load-sensing valves
- Proportional valves
- Open-center systems
- Closed-center systems
By evaluating these requirements early, FSC helps develop systems that support efficient power use, smooth operation, and long-term reliability.
Reservoir Design and Fluid Conditioning
Space is often limited on mobile equipment, making reservoir sizing, cooling, filtration, and service access important design considerations.
FSC evaluates these requirements as part of the system design process.
Fluid conditioning considerations may include:
- Reservoir sizing based on performance and packaging constraints
- Integrated sensors and mounting features
- Air-to-oil cooling systems
- Heating systems for cold-weather operation
- Filtration based on cleanliness requirements
- Service access for inspection and maintenance
These considerations help support system reliability while simplifying maintenance throughout the life of the equipment.
Mobile Controls and Operator Interface
Modern mobile equipment depends on more than hydraulic power alone.
FSC integrates electrical and control systems that help operators manage machine functions, monitor performance, and improve overall equipment operation.
Capabilities may include:
- ECU integration
- Joystick controls
- Button-based controls
- Operator displays and screens
- Wire harness design
- Sensor integration
- CAN communication networks
- J1939 communication
- ISOBUS integration
- Control logic development
By integrating hydraulic and electrical systems early in the design process, FSC helps create equipment that is easier to operate, diagnose, and support over time.
