Re: UK domestic rubbish collection ...
I dunno what they mean by ”35 tons" of pressure but your calculations yield a paltry 5 atmosphere pressure ... It just doesn't sound strong enough to me.
The R16 data in your link specifies the hydraulic system operating pressure as 200Kgf/cm² ... Near enough 20MPa. Why so much pressure to generate 0.5MPa?
