12/60 Safety instructions
Bosch Rexroth AG, A15VSO/A15VLO Series 11, RE 92801-01-B/11.2018
WARNING
Escaping hydraulic fluid mist!
Risk ofexplosion and fire hazard, health hazard, risk ofenvironmental pollution!
▶ Depressurize the relevant machine/system component and repair the leak.
▶ Only perform welding work when the machine/system isdepressurized.
▶ Keep open flames and ignition sources away from the axial piston unit.
▶ If axial piston units are located inthe vicinity ofignition sources orpowerful
thermal radiators, ashield must beerected toensure any escaping hydraulic
fluid cannot beignited, and toprotect hose lines from premature aging.
Electrical voltage!
Risk ofinjury from electric shock orrisk ofproperty damage!
▶ Always disconnect the voltage supply tothe relevant machine/system part
before installing the product and/or connecting ordisconnecting the connector.
Protect the machine/system against being re-energized.
Danger from unexpected machine movement!
Danger tolife orrisk ofinjury! Unintentional orcareless actuation ofthemanual
override ofthesolenoids can cause unexpected machine movements.
▶ Use the manual override only for functional testing orinthe event oftechnical
malfunctions.
▶ Using the manual override ona permanent basis (e.g.bywedging, blocking)
isnot permitted.
▶ The use ofthemanual override isonly permitted with limited technicaldata
(e.g.0.25×maximum data).
▶ Check whether ornot your machine requires additional safety measures for your
application toavoid unintentional actuation. If necessary, make sure these are
properly implemented.
▶ Wear suitable protective clothing.
Limitation oftheclosed loop control and/or open loop control function!
Risk ofinjury orproperty damage!
Under certain circumstances, moving parts incontrol equipment
(e.g.,valvespools) can get stuck due tocontamination (e.g.,impure hydraulic
fluid, abrasion orresidual dirt from components). As aresult, the hydraulic fluid
flow and the build-up oftorque inthe axial piston unit can nolonger respond
correctly tothe operator’s specifications. Even the use ofvarious filter elements
(externalorinternal flow filtration) will not rule out afault but merely reduce
therisk.
▶ Check whether your application requires remedial measures onyour machine
inorder tobring the driven consumer toasafe position (e.g.safe stop).
▶ If necessary, make sure these are properly implemented.
