Requirement
●
Do not store the assemblies outdoors but in a well-ventilated room.
●
Provide for 100 % UV protection.
●
Adhere to the storage temperature, see data sheet of the servo-hydraulic
actuator.
●
Protect the assemblies against humidity, particularly ground humidity. Store
the assemblies on a shelf or on a pallet.
●
Ensure that no ozone formation takes place near the storage location.
●
Servo-hydraulic actuators filled with oil must not be exposed to direct sun-
light or other heat sources, since an increase in the ambient temperature
causes the hydraulic pressure in the cylinder to rise.
●
Store the assemblies in packaging in order to protect them from dust and
dirt.
●
Store the assemblies protected against impacts and sliding.
●
After the transport packaging was opened, it must be closed properly again
for storage. Use the original packaging for storage.
Procedure after expiration of the maximum storage time:
●
Check the assemblies for damage and corrosion prior to their installation.
●
Check the assemblies for proper function and leaks during a test run.
If the actuator has to be stored over a period longer than the time given in the
above table “Storage times”, contact Bosch Rexroth with regard to the preser-
vation and later commissioning of the servo-hydraulic actuator.
Following demounting
If the assemblies are to be stored, they have to be preserved for the time of
storage to protect them against corrosion.
Bosch Rexroth recommends the following procedure:
1.
Clean the assemblies, see
⮫
Chapter 10.2 “Cleaning and care ”
on page 61.
2. Plug all ports air-tight.
3. Protect exposed parts like mating surfaces or mechanical interfaces using
suitable anti-corrosion agent.
4. Protect mating surfaces against humidity.
