Hydraulic oil is the lifeblood of the hydraulic system. This oil has many different functions when running in the entire hydraulic system, including lubricating moving parts and preventing corrosion of hydraulic components. In this paper, the three common problems of hydraulic oil brought by the heavy industry.
Over time, the quality of the hydraulic oil will directly affect the performance and durability of the hydraulic system. Any action that impairs the ability of the hydraulic fluid to effectively perform the assigned task can lead to a significant mechanical problem. Be aware of common problems that may plague the hydraulic oil so that these problems can be corrected before they endanger the health of the entire hydraulic system.
1. pollution:
A major problem that can cause serious damage to the performance of the hydraulic system is the contamination of the oil. Air and water are the two most common contaminants that enter the hydraulic oil supply system.
Water pollution will cause the hydraulic oil to appear milky white appearance, and affect the lubrication performance of the hydraulic oil. Water in the hydraulic oil also limits the corrosion resistance of the hydraulic oil.
Air pollution is equally detrimental to the performance of hydraulic systems. Air makes the hydraulic oil more elastic and cannot be compressed properly. Air contaminated hydraulic oil will have a foamy appearance.
If you find signs of air or water contamination in the hydraulic oil, flush the system quickly to avoid permanent damage.
2. cavitation:
Cavitation is another problem that can affect hydraulic oil. Although it sounds like a complex problem, cavitation is actually a simple process.
Cavitation occurs when rapid changes in hydraulic oil pressure occur. This rapid change can cause bubbles, called cavities, to form in the liquid. Whenever these cavities collapse, tiny shockwaves are emitted. Due to the impact of the shock wave, the metal parts close to these collapsed bubbles may be severely damaged.
If you find a sudden increase in noise or feel an increase in vibration during the operation of the hydraulic system, it may be caused by cavitation. You can combat cavitation by reducing the motor speed, lowering the pump temperature, and installing an impeller inducer.
3. aging:
Over time, the flow of hydraulic oil through the system becomes less and less feasible. As the oil ages, it will lose the ability to perform the important tasks required to keep the hydraulic system working properly.
Aging occurs when chemical additives that improve the performance of hydraulic oil begin to decompose. When additives become less effective, your hydraulic oil becomes less effective.
Just buy enough hydraulic oil to satisfy your system so you don't have to store any extra. This will help you avoid using aging liquids in your system. You should also schedule a routine liquid flush to remove hydraulic fluid from the system before aging affects system performance.
You should take good care of your hydraulic equipment so that you will not encounter any unexpected downtime or production delays. The same degree of care should be given to your hydraulic oil. Pollution, cavitation, and aging are all problems that originate from hydraulic oil. If not resolved in time, it may eventually lead to serious system failure.
