RE 93223-01-B/09.2020, A21VG Series 10, Bosch Rexroth Corporation
NOTICE
Contamination of hydraulic fluid!
The cleanliness of the hydraulic fluid impacts the service life of the axial piston
unit. Contamination of the hydraulic fluid may lead to premature wear and
malfunctions!
▶
Always ensure a work environment in the assembly location that is free from
dust and foreign particles to prevent foreign particles, e.g. welding beads
or metal cuttings, from entering the hydraulic lines and lead to wear and
malfunctions in the product. The axial piston unit should be clean when
installed.
▶
Only use clean ports, hydraulic lines and assembled parts (e.g. measuring
devices).
▶
When plugging the ports, no contamination may ingress.
▶
Before commissioning, ensure that all hydraulic connections are tight and
that all seals and plugs of the plug-in connection are correctly installed and
undamaged to prevent fluids and foreign particles from entering the product.
▶
Filter the hydraulic fluid when filling the system with a suitable filter system
to minimize the solid particle contamination and water in the hydraulic system
and to achieve the required cleanliness level
.
Improper cleaning
Product can be damaged!
▶
Plug all openings with appropriate protective covers in order to prevent
cleaning agents from entering the hydraulic system.
▶
Never use solvents or aggressive cleaning agents. Use only water and,
if necessary, a mild cleaning agent to clean the axial piston unit.
▶
Do not point a high-pressure cleaner at sensitive components, e.g. shaft seal,
electrical connections and components.
▶
Use fiber-free cleaning cloths for cleaning.
Environmental pollution due to incorrect disposal!
Careless disposal of the axial piston unit and its assembled parts,
the hydraulic fluid and the packaging material can cause environmental pollution!
▶
Dispose of the axial piston unit, hydraulic fluid and packaging in accordance
with the regulations in your country.
▶
Dispose of the hydraulic fluid in accordance with the applicable
safety data sheet of the hydraulic fluid.
Danger due to chemical or aggressive environmental conditions!
Product can be damaged! If the axial piston unit is exposed to chemical
or corrosive environmental conditions, such as sea water, fertilizer or road salt,
it can result in corrosion or, in extreme cases, malfunction. Leaks may lead
to a leakage of hydraulic fluid.
▶
Take appropriate measures to protect the axial piston unit from chemical
or corrosive environmental conditions.
