A dismounted axial piston unit must be stored with corrosion protection for the
duration of storage.
The following instructions only refer to axial piston units which are operated with
a mineral oil-based hydraulic fluid. Other hydraulic fluids require preservation
methods that are specifically designed for them. In such cases, consult Bosch
Rexroth Service, see Chapter 10.5 “Spare parts” on page 46.
Bosch Rexroth recommends the following procedure:
1.
Clean the axial piston unit, see Chapter 10.1 “Cleaning and care” on page 44.
2.
Empty the axial piston unit.
3.
For storage periods up to 12 months: Coat the inside of the axial piston unit with
mineral oil and fill with approx. 100 ml mineral oil.
For storage periods up to 24 months: Fill the axial piston unit with VCI 329
corrosion protection (20 ml).
Filling is performed via drain port
l
, see Chapter 7.4 “Installing the axial piston
4.
Seal all ports so they are air proof.
5.
Coat the unpainted areas of the axial piston unit with mineral oil or suitable,
easily removable corrosion protection, e.g., acid-free grease.
6.
Package the axial piston unit with desiccant in corrosion protection film so it
is airproof.
7.
Store the axial piston unit in a non-explosive area in a manner that is shock-proof,
see “Requirements” on page 25 in this chapter.
