NOTICE
Contamination of the hydraulic fluid!
The cleanliness of the hydraulic fluid has a considerable impact on the cleanliness
and service life of the hydraulic system. Contamination of the hydraulic fluid can
cause premature wear and malfunctions!
▶
Make sure that the working environment at the installation site is fully free
of dust and foreign substances in order to prevent foreign particles, such as
welding beads or metal cuttings, from getting into the hydraulic lines and
causing product wear or malfunctions. The control block must be installed in a
clean condition.
▶
Use only clean ports, hydraulic lines and attachments (e.g., measuring
equipment).
▶
No contamination may enter the ports when they are sealed.
▶
Before commissioning, make sure that all hydraulic connections are tight and
that all of the seals and plugs are installed correctly to ensure that they are
leak proof and fluids and foreign particles are prevented from penetrating the
product.
▶
Use a suitable filter system to filter hydraulic fluids during filling to minimize
solid impurities and water in the hydraulic system.
improper cleaning!
Product can get damaged.
▶
Plug all openings with appropriate protective equipment to prevent cleaning
agents from entering the control block.
▶
Never use solvents or corrosive cleaning agents. Clean the control block using
only water and a mild cleaning agent if necessary.
▶
Do not point the high-pressure cleaner at sensitive components, e.g. Rubber
parts (the bellows), electrical connections (solenoids and sensors), and
actuation elements.
▶
Use fibre-free cloths for cleaning.
Environmental pollution due to improper disposal!
Careless disposal of the control block, the hydraulic fluid and the packaging
material can result in environmental pollution!
▶
Dispose of the control block, hydraulic fluid, and packaging in accordance with
the national regulations in your country.
▶
Dispose of the hydraulic fluid in accordance with the applicable safety data
sheet for the hydraulic fluid.
Danger from chemical or corrosive environmental conditions!
Product can get damaged. If the control block 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. Hydraulic fluid can escape if leaks
occur.
▶
Take appropriate steps to protect the control block from chemical or corrosive
environmental conditions.
