3.
For the version wit through drive, first remove the spacer (
4
), see chapter 7.4.7
"Remove the spacer (for version with through drive)" on page 34 and fit
the auxiliary pump in accordance with the pump manufacturer’s manual. The
protective cover (
5
) is not pressure-resistant and should not be used during
operation.
7.4.9 Hydraulically connecting the axial piston unit
NOTICE
Insufficient suction pressure!
Generally, a minimum permissible suction pressure at port
S
is specified for
axial piston pumps in all installation positions. If the pressure at port
S
drops
below the specified values, damage may occur which may lead to the destruction
of the axial piston pump!
▶
Make sure the required suction pressure is maintained. This is influenced by:
– The piping (e.g. suction cross-section, pipe diameter, length of suction line)
– The position of the reservoir
– The viscosity of the hydraulic fluid
– A filter element or check valve in the suction line (check the level of
contamination of the filter element regularly)
– the geodesic height of the place of use
The machine/system manufacturer is responsible for dimensioning of the lines.
Connect the axial piston unit to the rest of the hydraulic system in accordance with
the hydraulic circuit diagram of the machine/system manufacturer.
The ports and fastening threads are designed for the maximum permissible
pressures
p
max
, see in Table 11 "Ports A10VOH series 60" on page 38. The
machine/system manufacturer is required to ensure that the connecting elements
and lines correspond to the specified application conditions (pressure, flow,
hydraulic fluid, temperature) with the necessary safety factors.
Connect only hydraulic lines that are match the axial piston unit port (pressure
level, size, system of units).
Observe the following information when routing the suction, pressure and
drain lines.
• Lines and hoses should be installed without pre-charge pressure so no further
mechanical forces are applied during operation that will reduce the service life of
the axial piston unit and, possibly, the entire machine/system.
• Use suitable seals as sealing material.
• Suction line (pipe or hose)
– The suction line should be as short and straight as possible.
– Measure the line cross section of the suction line so the pressure at the suction
port does not drop below the minimum permissible pressure. Make sure the
maximum suction pressure is not exceeded (e.g. when prefilling).
– Make sure the connections and connecting elements are airtight.
– The hose must be pressure-resistant, also to external air pressure.
