Bosch Rexroth AG, A15VSO/A15VLO Series 11, RE 92801-01-B/11.2018
Use only ahydraulic fluid that corresponds tothe following requirements:
You can find details oftheminimum requirements onhydraulic fluids
inBoschRexroth datasheets90220, 90221 and 90222. The titles ofthedata sheets
can befound in Table 1 "Required and supplementary documentation" onpage5.
BoschRexroth evaluates hydraulic fluids onthe basis oftheFluid Rating
according todatasheet90235. For hydraulic fluids which have been positively
evaluated inthe Fluid Rating, please refer todatasheet90245 "BoschRexroth
fluid rating list for Rexroth hydraulic components (pumps and motors)". The
hydraulic fluid should beselected sothat the operating viscosity inthe operating
temperature range iswithin the optimum range (ν
opt
; see selection diagram inthe
datasheet92801).
To ensure the functional reliability oftheaxial piston unit, cleanliness level 20/18/15
according toat least ISO4406 isnecessary for the hydraulic fluid. At ahydraulic fluid
viscosity ofless than 10mm²/s (e.g.due tohigh temperatures during short-term
operation) atthedrain port, amin. cleanliness level of19/17/14 asdefined
inISO4406 isrequired. You can find details onthe permissible and optimal
viscosities and admissible temperatures indatasheet92801.
Proceed asfollows tofill the axial piston unit:
1. Place adrip tray under the axial piston unit tocollect any hydraulic fluid that may
leak.
NOTICE! Contaminated hydraulic fluid!
The cleanliness levels ofcommercial hydraulic fluid are usually insufficient for our
components.
▶ Use asuitable filter system tofilter hydraulic fluids during filling tominimize solid
particle contamination and water inthe hydraulic system.
2. Fill and air bleed the axial piston unit via the appropriate ports; seechapter7.3
"Installation position" onpage28. Also fill the hydraulic lines ofthesystem.
NOTICE! Risk ofproperty damage due toinadequate lubrication!
Product can bedamaged ordestroyed!
▶ When using ashut-off valve inthe suction and/or drain line, make sure the drive
oftheaxial piston unit can only bestarted when the shut-off valves are open.
3. When using ashut-off valve inthe suction and/or drain line, only operate the axial
piston unit when the shut-off valves are open.
4. Test the direction ofrotation ofthedrive motor. To do this, run the drive motor
briefly atthelowest rotational speed (inching). Make sure that the direction
ofrotation oftheaxial piston unit agrees with the details ofthename plate,
seechapter5.3 "Product identification", Fig. 4Name plate A15VSO onpage20.
5. Operate the axial piston pump atalow rotational speed (starter speed for
internal combustion engines orinching mode for electric motors) until the
hydraulic system iscompletely filled and air bled. To verify, drain the hydraulic
fluid atthedrain port until there are nobubbles inthe fluid.
