10.2 Inspection
In order to keep the axial piston unit running reliably for a long time, BoschRexroth
recommends testing the hydraulic system and axial piston unit on a regular basis,
and documenting and archiving the following operating conditions:
Table 17: Inspection schedule
Tasks tobe performed Interval
Hydraulic system Check hydraulic fluid level inthe reservoir. Daily
Check the operating temperature at a comparable load
condition at drain port and in the reservoir.
Weekly
Conduct hydraulic fluid analysis: Viscosity, aging and
contamination
Yearly orevery
2000operating
hours (whichever
occurs first)
Axial piston unit Check that the leakage temperature of the temperature
or inlet of the axial piston unit are within the specified
limits.Exceeding these limits means explosion protection
is no longer guaranteed.
Daily
Check axial piston unit for leakage.
Early detection ofhydraulic fluid loss can help tofind
fault
s onthe machine/system and rectify them. This
iswhy BoschRexroth recommends always keeping
theaxial piston unit and system clean
Daily
Check axial piston unit for unusual noise development. Daily
Visual inspection for external integrity, case damage. Daily
Visual inspection of paint for damage. Initiate repairs
as necessary in accordance with DINENISO80079-36
section 6.7. Otherwise, explosion protection is no
longer guaranteed.
Monthly
Check mounting elements for tight seating.
Check all fasteners only when the hydraulic system is
sw
itched off, depressurized and cooled down.
Monthly
Check ground connection lines for tight seating. Monthly
Remove dust deposits from between the shaft and the
sealing flange
