Product E-Selectors

These product e-Selectors are designed to help you find the best Parker product for your application.

Many of these “inPHorm” e-Selectors perform complex calculations based on your operating parameters. In addition to suggesting the Parker product that best fits your use case, they often times give design recommendations that help you design the rest of the system as well.

    The inPhorm e-Selectors are available in 2 different formats:

  • Download and install the program on your PC, so it can run when an internet connection is not available. Some of the downloaded programs require a patch to be installed after installation, and are noted below.
  • Run from a web browser. To use this option, you first need to install the Citrix plug-in (one-time installation only).
  • Accumulators

    • Select hydraulic or pneumatic accumulators based on inputs such as: System maximum, minimum, and precharge pressures; temperatures; pump flow and cycling; and auxiliary power sources.
