6.9 Before first commissioningMake sure that the interfaces of the machine as well as the installation fconditions allow for the safe operation of the Rexroth control block. In case of doubt, please contact Bosch Rexroth.Check the operating instructions for the machine to find out in which machine fthe Rexroth control block must be installed, and make a visual inspection to check whether the commissioning of the hydraulics might result in uncontrolled and dangerous motions. If necessary, observe the risk analysis/risk evaluation of the machine.Take according precautions if risks are to be expected, e.g. make sure that fthe cylinder piston rod can be extended without any risks.Secure the load to be lifted additionally with lifting gear/load bearing fequipment.Check whether the electrical control of the machine allows for the manual fswitching of the control block solenoids during commissioning. If manual switching is not possible or only under difficult conditions, you must prepare an external control for the internal functional test of the hydraulic system.Develop a program for the commissioning process and file it in the technical fdocuments as annex to the operating instructions.Divide the functional circuit diagram in sub-circuits which can be fcommissioned one after the other.Read the functional circuit diagram and clarify ambiguous facts and fspecifications.Determine in which spool position the control blocks must be switched and fhow they must be adjusted.Apply important mandatory signs, prohibition signs, information signs and fcheck whether the meaning of these signs is explained in the operating instructions.Observe the following order for commissioning: f

Pump circuit –Parts of the control: e.g. depressurization and switch-over, free circulation, –pressure reduction, etc.

Ensure that pipes and/or hoses are connected to all ports and/or that the ports fare closed by means of plug screws.Ensure that the cap nuts and flanges are tightened properly on pipe fittings fand flanges.Switch pressure and flow valves, pump controllers, and sensors such as fpressure switches, limit switches and temperature controllers to the switching positions and set values specified in the process program.

Commissioning

Commissioning7

CAUTIOnRisk of injury caused by enclosed airAir enclosed in hydraulic systems might cause components to vibrate during operation so that they strike against the limit stops and be damaged. Unexpected movements of the actuators might cause injuries.

Depressurize the hydraulics before starting commissioning and relieve fpressure accumulator, if necessary.Before commissioning you must make sure that enclosed air is completely fremoved from the system. This can be done by a small amount of pressure fluid q ≤ 20 % qpump flowing through the pump in all switching positions.You must, in any case, observe the details for bleeding written down in the foperating instructions of the machine.

NOTEProduct damages resulting from a lack of pressure fluidIf you commission the control block without or with too little pressure fluid, the control block will be immediately damaged or even destroyed.

When commissioning or re-commissioning a machine or system, you should fensure that the housing space, as well as the suction and work lines of the control block are filled with pressure fluid and that they remain filled with oil during operation.

7.1 First commissioningLet the control block acclimate itself for several hours before commissioning, fotherwise water may condense in the housing.Make sure that all electrical and hydraulic connections are either used or fcovered. Commission the control block only if it is installed completely.Avoid temperature shocks. Do not exceed temperature differences of more fthan 20 °C between control block and pressure fluid. Otherwise you risk jammed spools. If temperatures are below –20 °C, the control block must be warmed up.

Proceed as follows for the first commissioning of the control block:

Completely fill the control block with permissible pressure fluid (see “Technical fdata sheet”).Before commissioning, the housing of the control block and, if available, the fpre-control circuit must be completely filled with pressure fluid and must be bled (see below).Switch on hydraulic supply fActivating the electrical supply fChecking electrical connections fBefore first or re-commissioning, have the electrical connections checked for proper condition by a trained electrician or under the direction and supervision of a trained electrician.

Page 25: re64025-b_2010-06

RE 64025-B/06.2010 | Operating instructions for control blocks Bosch Rexroth AG 25/42

Commissioning

Observe the operating instructions of the machine where the control block is installed.

f Bleeding the hydraulic system Before the actual operation, you must switch the control block several times under operating pressure in each actuating direction and with reduced velocity. Thus, the remaining air in the control block is pressed out. Mechanical damage due to inadmissibly high acceleration of the pressure fluid and the control block spool is thus avoided and the control block's service life is increased.Leakage test fCheck whether during operation, hydraulic medium leaks at the control block and at the connections.Performing the functional test fThe functional test must be made according to the specifications of the machine manufacturer, see operating instructions of the machine. In any case: Slowly increase pressure; stop functional test immediately in case of leakage!Commission control block. f

Details for fine adjustment are available in the operating instructions of each machine.

Check the f operating temperature of the machine after several hours of continuous operation. Too high operating temperatures indicate errors which must be analyzed and removed.Have a pressure fluid sample analytically tested for the required f cleanliness class after first commissioning. Replace the pressure fluid if the required cleanliness class is not achieved. If the pressure fluid is not tested in the laboratory after first commissioning, the following applies: Replace the pressure fluid

Re-commissioning7.2 Proceed as follows to re-commission the control block:

Follow the instructions in chapter 7.1 “First commissioning” on page 24. f

Maintenance and repair

Maintenance and repair9

CAUTIOnRisks caused by reduced safety during commissioningExperience has shown that the number of accidents during maintenance works is higher than during normal operation. Therefore we would ask you to observe any of the following safety instructions in the interest of safety.

Regularly check the safety devices - if any - for correct functionality. fAccomplish any maintenance work at due date, correctly and completely and fdocument it.Adequately secure the maintenance area before starting maintenance works. fPay attention to cleanliness in order to avoid malfunctions caused by dirt. fPaint residues on sealing surfaces must be removed before assembly. Make sure that paint residues do not enter block openings. Otherwise you risk malfunctions.Operate the hydraulic product in maintenance mode possibly requiring the fdisassembly of certain protective covers with high alertness. Switch off the hydraulic product and secure it against unintended switching on.The user is not allowed to change the set values of safety valves. New fadjustments may only be accomplished by authorized testing authorities.Put on your protective goggles, protective gloves and safety boots. fDepressurize the hydraulic product and professionally relieve available pressure accumulators, if any.Let system sections and pressure lines which can be opened cool down fbefore starting commissioning works.Slowly open segments which must still be pressurized. fPlease observe that, if there are check valves in the pressure lines above fthe pumps, the hydraulic system might still be pressurized after it has been disconnected from the actual pressure supply. Move all cylinders to the safe end position.Lower any load. Provide external safeguard if the load cannot be lowered. It fis inadmissible to carry out maintenance work at lifted units without external safeguard.Switch off all pumps. fSupport vertical cylinders mechanically against sinking. fOnly new, structurally identical and tested components, spare parts and flubricants in original equipment quality are admitted for replacement/use.Make sure that all protective devices and especially all protective functions fwhich could impair the safety-shutdown strategy are correctly installed and checked for functionality before each re-commissioning.

After the completion of all works, please remove all tools and devices used ffor maintenance from the hydraulic product.

Personal injuries caused by not functioning spare partsSpare parts that do not meet the technical requirements specified by Bosch Rexroth may cause personal injuries.

Only use genuine spare parts from Bosch Rexroth. f

Maintenance and repair

NOTEPenetrating dirt and liquids will cause faults!Safe function of the control block is no longer ensured.

Always ensure absolute cleanliness when working on the control block. fCover all openings with the appropriate protective equipment in order to fprevent detergents from penetrating the system.Check that all seals and plugs of the plug-in connection are firmly fitted so fthat no humidity can penetrate the control block during cleaning.Dust accumulations on the control block have to be removed at regular fintervals.

Damage to the surface from solvents and aggressive cleaning agents!Aggressive detergents may damage the seals on the control block and let them age faster.

Never use solvents or aggressive detergents. fOnly clean the control block using a damp, lint-free cloth. Only use water to fdo this and, if necessary, a mild detergent.

Damage to the hydraulic system and seals!The water pressure of a high-pressure cleaner can damage the control block and seals of the hydraulic power unit. The water displaces the oil from the hydraulic system and seals.

Do not use a high-pressure cleaner. f

Definition9.1 In accordance with DIN 31051:2003-6 the term maintenance means the combination of all technical and administrative measures and measures taken by the management during the life cycle of an item in order to maintain the functional condition or to return to the same, so that the item is able to meet the required function.These measures can be classified into:

Maintenance • (measures to delay the decrease of the existing wear reserve)Inspection • (measures to determine and assess the actual condition of an item, including the determination of the cause of wear and the derivation of the required consequences for a future use)Repair • (measures to return an item to a functional state, except improvements)Improvement • (combination of all technical and administrative measures and measures taken by the management to increase the functional safety of an item, without modifying the function required).

Maintenance and repair

9.2 Inspection and maintenanceThe goal of inspection and maintenance is

to maintain the functionality of the system with its initial parameters. •to ensure the permanent availability of the system. •to determine weak points. •to achieve the required service life of the system. •

Basically we recommend to keep an inspection and maintenance record where any system and site-specific works as well as inspection and maintenance intervals are defined and documented.If the specified operating and ambient conditions are observed, the control blocks are maintenance-free. Regular inspection and maintenance work is therefore not required.However, the following must be checked at least every three years (from the manufacturer date of the control block):

The control block for f leakage at the outside. All screws and connections for firm seat. fAll connection lines for damages. If damage is visible, replace the fconnection line.

Order information for seal kits is available in chapter 9.4 “Spare parts” on page 31.

9.2.1 Pressure fluidsThe performance characteristics of pressure fluids deteriorate with increased aging (chemical deterioration). Acids and resin residues are formed which cause the bonding of mobile parts inside the control block.The following factors accelerate the aging process:

High temperatures •Air in the pressure fluid •Humidity •Water •Metallic catalysts •High operating pressure •Contamination •

Observe the following general rule: From a hydraulic fluid temperature of > 70 °C, aging speed doubles with every 10 °C.

Further information on hydraulic fluids based on mineral oil also applying for •Rexroth control blocks are available in our technical data sheets

Maintenance and repair

Malfunction caused by contaminated hydraulic fluid9.2.2 Contaminations of the hydraulic fluid not only result in increased wear and reduced service life of the control block but also in malfunctions. This could impair the safety and reliability of the control block.Therefore you should regularly carry out the maintenance measures specified in the operating instructions of the machine and check cleanliness when working on the control block.The following aspects might cause the contamination of the hydraulic fluid:

Wear during the operation of the machine (metallic and non-metallic abrasion) •Leakages on the control block •Contamination during maintenance/repair •Use of contaminated (unfiltered) hydraulic fluid for replacement. •

Replenishing/refilling9.2.3 When replenishing/refilling your hydraulic system you must make sure that you use admissible hydraulic fluid (see “Technical data sheet”) of the same type and the same manufacturer.In case of major contamination and/or premature aging of the hydraulic fluid, the system including the tank must be cleaned and rinsed before refilling. Before refilling, you must always filter new hydraulic fluid according to the required cleanliness class because it usually does not comply with the required cleanliness class in its as-delivered state. Lines and hoses must be rinsed before installation.Use a filter aggregate when filling the hydraulic fluid tank. The filter element must be clean. Do not remove filter screens from the filler neck or the filter insert of filters when filling the hydraulic fluid tank.

The filter mesh must at least meet the required cleanliness class of the entire system. If possible, it must even be finer. The applied filter unit must meet the requirements with regard to functional safety and service life.

The maximum admissible degree of contamination of the hydraulic fluid is specified in the “Technical data sheet” in the chapter “Technical data”.

If possible, replenish the hydraulic fluid tank using a filling coupling, if possible at the return filter.

Troubleshooting

Fault Possible causes RemedyFor valves in parallel operation: No pressure and/or no oil flow at the actuator if main spool is deflected, pressure builds up with much delay

Oil flows to the actuator with minimum pressure due to undersupply

Increase pump oil flow by applying higher speed or larger pump, and/or reduce consumed volume using a volume throttle.

Neutral circulation pressure too high

No load-sensing unloading (only for M4, M6, M7, SP, SX)Control spool not in neutral position For tongue: Check projecting size, see “Technical data

sheet”.Pressure in the control caps too high (check control).

Return flow pressure too high Separate return flow from mutual return flow line, use separate return flow line or increase line cross-section.

Input pressure compensator jams Replace input element.Motion at the actuator despite neutral position

Control spool not in neutral position Pressure in the control caps too high (check control).Secondary DB leaking and/or set too low Check set pressure at the secondary DB.Leakage at control spool too large Leakage values, see “Technical data sheet”.

Mount leakage-free lowering-brake valve.No rest function Return force in the actuating device too high

compared to the latching force (spring)Disassemble and clean latching.

Latching unit worn out Replace latching unit.Delatching force too high Control spool jams See “Control spool cannot be deflected”

at the top of the “Control spool jams” table.Latching unit damaged Replace latching unit.Latching force too high Clean and grease latching unit Replace latching unit if

malfunction cannot be removed.

In case of faults due to contamination, the oil quality has to be checked and improved, if applicable, by suitable measures, such as flushing or installing additional filters, in addition to the servicing works.If you could not remedy the occurred fault, please contact one of the addresses you find on the internet at http://www.boschrexroth.com or in the 15.6 “Address directory” on page 42.
