7.4.5 Installation on a gearbox
The installation layout for the axial piston unit on a gearbox is described below.
After installing on a gearbox, the axial piston unit is covered and is difficult to access:
▶
Therefore, before installing, make sure that the centering diameter centers the
axial piston unit (observe tolerances) and that no impermissible axial or radial
forces act on the drive shaft of the axial piston unit (installation length).
▶
Protect the drive shaft against frictional corrosion by providing permanent
lubrication.
▶
Fix the axial piston unit at the installation location.
No gearing forces higher than the permissible axial and radial forces are to act on
the shaft, if necessary the gear wheel must be supported separately at the gearbox
output.
7.4.6 Installation with cardan shaft
To be connected around the axial piston unit with a cardan shaft:
1.
Position the axial piston unit close to the specified installation point. It should
allow enough space for the cardan shaft to fit through on both sides.
2.
Join the cardan shaft to the drive shaft of the machine/system.
3.
Push the axial piston unit to the cardan shaft and join the cardan shaft to the
output shaft of the axial piston unit.
4.
Bring the axial piston unit to the installation position and secure. If necessary,
details on the required tools and tightening torques for the mounting bolts can be
obtained from the system manufacturer.
7.4.7 Completing installation
1.
Remove any mounted transport screws.
CAUTIOn!
Operation with protective plug!
Operating the axial piston unit with protective plugs may result in injuries or damage
to the axial piston unit.
▶
Before commissioning, remove all protective plugs and replace them with
suitable, pressure-proof, metal threaded plugs.
2.
Remove the transport protection.
The axial piston unit is delivered with protective covers (
) and protective
plugs (
). They are not pressure-resistant, therefore they have to be removed
prior to connection. Use a suitable tool for this to prevent damage to the sealing
and functional surfaces. If sealing or functional surfaces are damaged, contact
your responsible Bosch Rexroth Service partner or the service department of the
manufacture's plant for the axial piston unit.
