7.2 Installation conditions
The installation position and location oftheaxial piston unit essentially determine
how itisinstalled and commissioned (such aswhen filling and air bleeding theaxial
piston unit).
▶ Fasten theaxial piston unit sothat theexpected forces and torque can
betransferred without any danger. The machine/system manufacturer
isresponsible for sizing thefasteners.
▶ Observe the permissible radial forces as indicated on page 7 of the
datasheet(Part II) on the drive shaft when transferring output drive with radial
loading. Donot use belt drives; see chapter 7.4.3 "General instructions" on
page38.
▶ Make sure theaxial piston unit isalways filled with hydraulic fluid during
commissioning and operation. Also do this also after relatively long standstill
periods, since theaxial piston unit may drain out through thehydraulic lines.
▶ Install carefully and in accordance with ATEX guidelines to prevent damage to the
bearings, housing, clamp collar and drive shaft.
▶ The case drain fluid in the case interior must be directed to the reservoir via the
highest case drain port. Use aline size that matches theport.
▶ A check valve in the drain line is only permissible on a case-by-case basis upon
request. Please consult your proper contact person atBoschRexroth.
▶ To keep noise values low, use elastic elements toisolate all connecting lines from
all vibration-capable components (e.g. reservoir).
▶ Make sure that the suction, reservoir and return lines lead into the reservoir
below the minimum fluid level in all operating conditions. This will prevent air
from being drawn inand foam from forming.
▶ Make sure that a minimum suction pressure of 0.8bar absolute is present at
portS during operation for all installation positions and installation locations
of the axial piston unit; see Fig. 5. See the data sheet (Part II) for additional
pressure levels.
