Hydraulic unit life
Hydraulic unit life is the life expectancy of the hydraulic components. It is a function of speed and
system pressure. System pressure is the dominant operating variable. High pressure, which results from
high load, reduces expected life.
Design the hydraulic system to a projected machine duty cycle. Know the expected percentages of time
at various loads and speeds. Ask your Danfoss representative to calculate an appropriate pressure based
your hydraulic system design. If duty cycle data is not available, input power and pump displacement are
used to calculate system pressure.
All pressure limits are differential pressures (referenced to charge pressure) and assume normal charge
pressure.
LPV pumps will meet satisfactory life expectancy if applied within the parameters specified in this
bulletin. For more detailed information on hydraulic unit life see

Mounting flange loads
Estimating overhung load moments
Adding auxiliary pumps and/or subjecting pumps to high shock loads may result in excessive loading of
the mounting flange. Applications which experience extreme resonant vibrations or shock may require
additional pump support. You can estimate the overhung load moment for multiple pump mounting
using the formula below.
