6.2 Storing the axial piston unit
• Storage areas should be free of corrosive materials and gases.
• To prevent damage to the seals, do not operate ozone-forming equipment (e.g.
mercury-vapor lamps, high-voltage equipment, electric motors, sources of electrical
sparks or electrical discharge) in storage areas.
• Storage areas should be dry.
Recommended relative humidity ≤ 60%.
• Ideal storage temperature: +5 °C to +20 °C.
• Min. storage temperature: -50 °C.
• Max. storage temperature: +60 °C.
• Keep out of direct sunlight.
• Do not stack axial piston units and store them in a shock-proof manner.
• Do not store the axial piston unit on the drive shaft or on assembled parts,
e.g. sensors or valves.
• For further storage conditions, see Table 7.
▶
Check the axial piston unit monthly to ensure proper storage.
The axial piston units come in corrosion protection packaging
(corrosion protection film).
Table 7 lists the max. permissible storage times for an unpackaged axial piston unit
as per data sheet 90312.

Max. 12 months
Max. 24 months
The warranty will be voided if the requirements and storage conditions are not
observed or after expiration of the max. storage time
(see Table 7).
What to do once the max. storage time elapses:
1.
Check the entire axial piston unit for damage and corrosion prior to installation.
2.
Perform a test run to check the axial piston unit for proper function and leaks.
3.
If storage time exceeds 24 months, replace the shaft seal.
Once the max. storage time has elapsed, we recommend that you have the axial
piston unit inspected by your Bosch Rexroth service partner.
For questions regarding repair and spare parts, contact your proper Bosch Rexroth
service partner or the service department of the factory that manufactured the axial
piston unit, see chapter 10.5 “Spare parts” on page 49.
