Table 13: Axial piston unit malfunction table
Malfunction Possible cause Remedy
No or insufficient pressure Insufficient air bleeding of the hydraulic system Fill the axial piston unit, suction line for the
hydraulic pump and the reservoir
Completely air bleed the axial piston unit and
hydraulic system
Check correct installation position
Faulty mechanical drive (e.g.defective coupling) Contact machine/system manufacturer
Drive power too low Contact machine/system manufacturer
Insufficient suction conditions, e.g.,insufficient
dimensioning of the suction line, viscosity of
the hydraulic fluid too high, suction height too
high, suction pressure too low, foreign particles
in the suction line, suction filter too small or
blocked, etc.
Machine/system manufacturer: Check the
system, e.g.optimize inlet conditions,
usesuitable hydraulic fluid
Fill the suction line with hydraulic fluid
Remove foreign particles from the suction line
Check the filter system and change the filter
asnecessary
Hydraulic fluid not in optimal viscosity range Machine/system manufacturer:
Check temperature range and use suitable
hydr
aulic fluid
Insufficient boost pressure Check boost pressure
Contact BoschRexroth Service
Insufficient pilot pressure or control pressure Check pilot pressure or control pressure
Contact BoschRexroth Service
Malfunction of the control device or controller
of the axial piston unit
Contact BoschRexroth Service
Control of the control device defective Check control (contact machine/system
manufacturer or BoschRexroth Service)
Wear or mechanical damage to the axial
pistonunit
Replace axial piston unit
Contact BoschRexroth Service
Output unit defective (e.g.hydraulic motor or
cylinder)
Contact machine/system manufacturer
