Table 13: Axial piston unit malfunction table
Malfunction Possible cause Remedy
No or insufcient pressure Faulty mechanical drive
(e.g. defective coupling).
Machine/system manufacturer.
Drive power too low. Machine/system manufacturer.
Insufcient suction conditions, e.g. air in
the suction line, insufcient diameter of
the suction line, viscosity of the hydraulic
uid too high, suction height too high,
suction pressure too low, contaminants
in the suction line (only relevant for the
version with boost pump).
Machine or system manufacturer
(e.g. optimize inlet conditions, use suitable
hydraulic uid).
Completely air bleed axial piston unit, ll
suction line with hydraulic uid.
Remove contaminants from the suction
line.
Hydraulic uid not in optimum viscosity
range.
Use suitable hydraulic uid (machine/
system manufacturer).
External control of the control device
defective.
Check external control (machine/system
manufacturer).
Insufcient pilot pressure or control
pressure.
Check pilot pressure or control pressure,
contact Bosch Rexroth Service.
Malfunction of the control device or
controller of the axial piston unit.
Contact Bosch Rexroth Service.
Wear of axial piston unit. Exchange axial piston unit,
contact Bosch Rexroth Service.
Mechanical damage to the axial piston unit
(e.g. bearing damage).
Exchange axial piston unit,
contact Bosch Rexroth Service.
Output unit defective (e.g. hydraulic motor
or cylinder).
Machine/system manufacturer.
Pressure/ow uctuations Axial piston unit not or insufciently air
bled.
Completely air bleed axial piston unit.
Insufcient suction conditions, e.g. air in
the suction line, insufcient diameter of
the suction line, viscosity of the hydraulic
uid too high, suction height too high,
suction pressure too low, contaminants
in the suction line (only relevant for the
version with boost pump).
Machine or system manufacturer
(e.g. optimize inlet conditions, use suitable
hydraulic uid).
Completely air bleed axial piston unit, ll
suction line with hydraulic uid.
Remove contaminants from the suction
line.
Excessive hydraulic uid temperature and
case temperature
Excessive inlet temperature at the axial
piston unit.
Machine or system manufacturer:
inspect system, e.g malfunction of the
cooler, insufcient hydraulic uid in the
reservoir.
Malfunction of the pressure control valves
(e.g. high-pressure relief valve, pressure
controller).
Contact Bosch Rexroth Service.
Wear of axial piston unit. Exchange axial piston unit,
contact Bosch Rexroth Service.
Instability/vibrations Setpoint value not stable. Machine/system manufacturer.
Resonance in the reservoir line. Machine/system manufacturer.
Malfunction of the control devices or the
controller.
Contact Bosch Rexroth Service.
