SIDUMP’R and Circle R: Semi Truck Dump Systems

Revised July, 2023

In the world of heavy duty aftermarket truck and trailer parts, efficiency and reliability are paramount. Sidump’r and Circle R have become leading hydraulic systems for dump systems in class 6-8 semi trucks. Designed to enhance performance and streamline operations, these systems offer a range of benefits.

Understanding the Systems

Sidump’r and Circle R hydraulic systems provide controlled and efficient dumping capabilities. This ensures seamless and safe unloading of cargo. These systems are comprised of:

  • Reservoir: The hydraulic fluid reservoir stores hydraulic fluid, which is essential for the proper functioning of the system. It also helps dissipate heat and remove contaminants through filters. This ensures a clean and efficient hydraulic system.
  • High PSI Filter: Selecting the high PSI filter should base on the specific requirements of the hydraulic system. Consider factors such as the system’s operating pressure, flow rate, and the type and size of contaminants expected.
  • PTO: Transfers power from the engine to auxiliary equipment, such as a hydraulic system
  • Hydraulic pump: The hydraulic pump is the heart of the Sidump’r and Circle R systems. The pump generates hydraulic pressure to power the system and raise the truck bed. This component ensures consistent and reliable performance.
  • Hoses & Fittings: The hydraulic hose and fittings connect various parts of the system, ensuring the smooth transfer of hydraulic fluid.
  • Quick Coupler: The coupler provides quick and easy connect and disconnect of hydraulic lines.
  • Relief Valve: The relief valve provides pressure regulation, overload protection, system stability, and component protection.
