6.2 Storing theaxial piston unit
• Storage areas should befree ofcorrosive materials and gases.
• To prevent damage tothe seals, do not operate ozone-forming equipment
(e.g.mercury-vapor lamps, high-voltage equipment, electric motors, sources
ofelectrical sparks and/orelectrical discharge) instorage areas.
• Storage areas should bedry.
Recommended relative humidity ≤60%.
• Ideal bearing temperature: +5°C to+20°C.
• Minimum storage temperature: −50°C.
• Maximum storage temperature: +60°C.
• Keep out ofdirect sunlight.
• Do not stack axial piston units and store them inashock-proof manner.
• Do not store theaxial piston unit onthe drive shaft orassembled parts,
e.g.sensors orvalves.
• For further storage conditions, see Table 7.
▶ Check theaxial piston unit monthly toensure proper storage.
The axial piston units come incorrosion protection packaging
(corrosionprotectionfilm) provided atthe factory.
Table 7 lists themaximum permissible storage times for anunpackaged axialpiston
unit asper data sheet 90312.

The warranty will bevoided iftherequirements and storage conditions are not
observed orafter expiration ofthemax. storage time (see Table 7).
How toproceed once themax. storage time elapses:
1. Check theentire axial piston unit for damage and corrosion prior toinstallation.
2. Perform atest run tocheck theaxial piston unit for proper functioning and
leak-tightness.
3. Ifstorage time exceeds 24months, replace theshaft seal.
Once themax. storage time has elapsed, we recommend that you have
theaxialpiston unit checked byyour BoschRexroth service partner.
For questions regarding repair and spare parts, contact your proper BoschRexroth
service partner ortheservice department ofthemanufacturer's plant oftheaxial
piston unit, see chapter 10.5 "Spare parts" onpage56.
