How To Prolong The Service Life Of Hydraulic Cylinder?

There are several key points in hydraulic cylinder system maintenance:
1. Keep the hydraulic oil clean. Dirt in the oil can damage system components.
2. Keep the hydraulic oil volume. When there is less oil, air will enter and the system will not work properly.
3. Pay attention to observe whether there is oil leakage in the oil cylinder. Oil leakage indicates that the seal is broken. If it is not replaced in time, it will not only consume oil, but also reduce the output. In severe cases, it will not operate.
4. Familiar with the sound of the system running. The normal and faulty sounds are different. If you hear a strange sound, you will know that there is something wrong, and you should eliminate it in time to prevent small problems from turning into big damage and causing big losses.
5. Pay attention to check whether the tight parts are loose. To maintain its effective state.
The use of hydraulic cylinders is very common and is widely used in mechanical equipment. The O-ring of the oil cylinder is always the most easily damaged. When the "O"-shaped sealing ring of the oil cylinder is worn out, the gap between the rod chamber and the rodless chamber of the oil cylinder increases and communicates, which is equivalent to cutting off the oil return path of the cylinder rod chamber. In practice, because the two chambers of the cylinder form a gap, the pressure oil in the cylinder chamber tends to flow from the high-pressure area to the low-pressure area. Once the flow occurs, the piston loses balance and moves to the rod chamber to find a new balance point. Reciprocating in this way, the piston moves until it is stopped by an external force. The occurrence of the above phenomena has a great impact on the operation of the hydraulic system. After replacing the "O" seal ring of the cylinder piston, the unstable operation of the cylinder can be completely improved. At the same time, it can greatly extend the service life of the oil cylinder.
