34/56 Installation

Connect only hydraulic lines that are appropriate for the axial piston unit port
(pressure level, size, system of units).
Observe the following notes when routing the pressure and drain lines.
•
Lines and hoses must be installed without pre-charge pressure, so that no further
mechanical forces are applied during operation that will reduce the service life of
the axial piston unit and, if applicable, the entire machine/system.
•
Use suitable seals as sealing material.
•
Pressure line
– For the pressure lines, use only pipes, hoses and connecting elements rated for
the working pressure range specified in data sheet 91706 (see Table 10).
•
Drain line
– Always route the drain lines so that the case is constantly filled with hydraulic
fluid and to ensure that no air gets through the shaft seal even during extended
standstill periods.
– Under no operating circumstances may the case pressure exceed the maximum
values specified for the axial piston unit in the data sheet.
– The drain line joint in the reservoir must always be below the minimum fluid level
(see Chapter 7.3 “Installation position” on page 28).
•
If the axial piston unit is equipped with installed screw fittings, these must not be
unscrewed. Screw the stud end of the fitting directly into the installed screw fitting.
Axial piston units are employed in regions using the metric measuring system, in
regions using the Anglo-American (imperial) measuring system and in regions using
the Japanese measuring system (JIS –
J
apan
I
ndustrial
S
tandard). Moreover, various
kinds of seal are used.
The system of units, the kind of seal and the size of female thread and stud ends
(e.g., threaded plug) must all match.
The limited ways of telling them apart visually poses a risk of confusing them.
wARnInG.
Leaky or bursting stud ends.
For fittings, if a stud end which is of a different measurement system, kind of seal and
size with respect to the female thread is pressurized, the stud end may loosen itself
or even be ejected from the hole in a projectile-like manner. This can result in serious
injury and property damage. Hydraulic fluid can escape from this leakage point.
▶
Use the drawings (installation drawing) to determine the required stud end for
each fitting.
▶
Make sure the right fittings, mounting bolts and threaded plugs are installed.
▶
For all female threads, use a stud end from the same system of units and of the
correct size.
