The customer is responsible for ensuring all
electrical connections are made according to
national and international regulations for the
installation of electrical equipment.
The device must be supplied from an
isolated source and protected by an over
current device to ensure the limited voltage
circuit requirements according to national
and international standards.
No warranty will be considered if this is not
completed accordingly.
2.3.4
Start the electric motor and let the unit run
10 cycles (pressurising/de-pressurising):
With system pressurised bleed the
brakes.
With system de-pressurised refill oil
if necessary.
2.3.5
Bleeding and flushing the hydraulic
power unit
To meet the demands of NAS 1638 Class 8
or ISO 4406 Class 19/17/14 the hydraulic
power units supplied from Twiflex Ltd have
been flushed before leaving the factory.
Despite the above, the hydraulic system
must always be flushed and bled again
before commissioning.
Flushing of the system will remove minor
particles and potential dirt in the system and
prevent damage to the unit.
After flushing, the hydraulic power unit must
be bled in order to remove any air in the
system.
If the hydraulic power unit is not properly
bled potential damage to the seals may
occur.
The hydraulic power unit must always be
bled in conjunction with assembly, repair or
when making changes in the system.
Failure to bleed the hydraulic system will
allow air to remain in the brake lines which
could prevent the brake system from
reacting fast enough. This might, for
example, cause the linings to remain in
contact with the brake disc and excess
heating of the brake pads and brake disc
could occur.
Air in the system could also destroy the
seals (diesel effect) within the hydraulic
system.
Make a functional check of the system by
checking the pressure, and the hydraulic
settings.
