3. Installation Instructions
3.1 Installation Preparation
-
Confirm the system parameters: Record the working pressure, flow demand, and speed of the hydraulic system to ensure they match the pump’s technical parameters, especially the maximum working pressure shall not exceed 200 bar.
-
Check the pump appearance: Inspect the pump body for damage, cracks, or oil leakage; check whether the connecting parts, pressure regulating device, and seal are intact and free of looseness.
-
Prepare tools and accessories: Prepare hexagon wrench set, torque wrench (range 0-100 N·m), seal installation tool, coupling, and matching high-pressure seals (O-rings, skeleton oil seals, composite seals).
-
Clean the installation area: Ensure the mounting surface, pipeline interface, and connecting parts are clean and free of dirt, debris, or rust to avoid contaminating the hydraulic system and causing internal component wear.
3.2 Installation Steps
-
Fix the pump: Align the pump’s mounting flange with the base, install the mounting bolts symmetrically, and tighten them evenly according to the specified torque (45-50 N·m) to ensure the mounting surface is flat and free of deviation, which avoids uneven stress on the pump body.
-
Connect the pipeline: Connect the inlet and outlet pipelines according to the marked direction (inlet port for oil suction, outlet port for oil discharge); use high-pressure pipelines that match the port size, and ensure the pipeline connection is tight and reliable to avoid oil leakage under high pressure. The inlet pipeline diameter shall not be smaller than the pump’s inlet specification, and the length shall not exceed 2m to reduce suction resistance; the outlet pipeline shall be equipped with a pressure relief valve to protect the pump.
-
Connect the drive shaft: Connect the pump’s drive shaft to the motor shaft using a flexible coupling, ensuring the coaxiality is ≤0.05mm; avoid direct radial or axial loads on the drive shaft. Do not knock the shaft end to prevent internal component damage, and ensure the coupling is installed tightly without looseness.
-
Connect the drain pipeline: Connect the drain port to the oil tank separately, ensure the pipeline is unobstructed and the diameter is not smaller than G3/8; do not connect it to the return line manifold to avoid excessive drain pressure, which may cause shaft seal leakage.
-
Install filters: Install a 10μm precision suction filter at the inlet to protect the pump body from contamination; install a 5μm return filter in the system to maintain oil cleanliness, and configure a pressure gauge at the outlet to monitor the working pressure in real time.
3.3 Post-Installation Inspection
-
Manually turn the pump shaft: Rotate the pump shaft by hand for 2-3 turns to ensure it rotates flexibly without jamming, abnormal noise, or resistance; if there is resistance, check the installation coaxiality and internal components.
-
Check pipeline tightness: Check all pipeline connections, flange connections, and seal positions for looseness or oil leakage; re-tighten if necessary, especially the high-pressure pipeline connections.
-
Check oil level and oil quality: Ensure the oil tank is filled with hydraulic oil that meets the requirements, and the oil level is within the specified range; check the oil quality to avoid using contaminated or expired oil, and exhaust the air in the pipeline before starting.
4. Operation Guidelines
4.1 Start-Up Operation
-
Before starting the motor, confirm that all electrical and hydraulic connections are correct, the pressure regulating valve is set to the minimum pressure (30 bar), and the air in the pipeline has been exhausted.
-
Start the motor in a no-load state, run it at low speed (800-1000 rpm) for 5-8 minutes, and check for abnormal phenomena such as oil leakage, abnormal noise, or overheating of the pump body (normal surface temperature ≤40°C during no-load operation).
-
Gradually increase the speed to the rated speed (1450 rpm), and adjust the pressure regulating valve to the working pressure required by the system; ensure the pressure and flow are stable, and the pressure fluctuation range shall not exceed ±5 bar.
-
After the pump runs stably for 10-15 minutes, check the oil temperature (normal temperature ≤65°C) and all connecting parts again for oil leakage; if any abnormality is found, stop the machine for inspection immediately.
4.2 Normal Operation
-
During operation, regularly monitor the pump’s working pressure, flow, oil temperature, and noise; if any abnormal conditions (such as pressure sudden drop, flow instability, abnormal noise, or overheating) are found, stop the machine for inspection immediately.
-
Do not exceed the maximum working pressure (200 bar) and speed (2000 rpm) of the pump for a long time to avoid accelerating component wear and reducing service life; the continuous working pressure is recommended to be 160 bar or below.
-
Ensure the hydraulic oil is clean and the oil level is sufficient; add oil in a timely manner if the oil level is too low, and check the oil quality regularly; replace the oil and filter element according to the maintenance cycle.
-
Avoid sudden start-up, stop, or pressure shock, which may cause damage to the pump’s internal components (vanes, stator, distribution plate) and seals; when adjusting the pressure, adjust it gradually.
4.3 Shutdown Operation
-
First, reduce the system pressure to the minimum (30 bar) by adjusting the pressure regulating valve, and keep the motor running at low speed for 2-3 minutes to cool the pump body.
-
Stop the motor, and wait for the pump to stop rotating completely and the system pressure to drop to 0 bar.
-
Cut off the power supply of the hydraulic system to ensure safe operation during maintenance.
-
If the pump is not used for a long time, drain the hydraulic oil in the pump and pipeline, clean the pump body and pipelines, apply anti-rust oil to the shaft end and internal components, and store it in a dry, ventilated, and dust-free environment.
5. Maintenance Procedures
5.1 Daily Maintenance
-
Check the oil level and oil quality daily before starting the machine; if the oil is turbid, emulsified, or contains impurities, replace it immediately and clean the oil tank and filter.
-
Inspect the pump body, pipeline connections, and seal positions for oil leakage; replace the seal in a timely manner if leakage is found, especially the high-pressure composite seal.
-
Listen to the pump’s operating noise; if there is abnormal noise (such as sharp friction sound, knocking sound, or whistling sound), stop the machine for inspection.
-
Clean the surface of the pump and the surrounding area to avoid dust and debris accumulation, and check the pressure gauge and filter for normal operation.
5.2 Regular Maintenance
-
Every 300 hours of operation: Replace the hydraulic oil and filter element; clean the oil tank and pipeline, and check the tightness of all connecting bolts.
-
Every 600 hours of operation: Disassemble the pump, inspect the wear of internal components (vanes, stator, rotor, distribution plate), and replace worn components if necessary; check the seal kit and replace it if it is aged or damaged, and clean the pressure compensator.
-
Every 1200 hours of operation: Conduct a comprehensive inspection of the pump, including the drive shaft, bearing, pressure compensator, and coupling; adjust the pressure compensator to ensure its sensitivity and accuracy, and check the coaxiality of the pump and motor.
5.3 Component Replacement Notes
-
When replacing components, use Berarma original accessories to ensure compatibility and performance consistency, especially the vane, stator, and high-pressure seal.
-
Before disassembly, release the system pressure and drain the hydraulic oil to avoid oil splashing and personal injury; wear protective equipment (gloves, goggles) during operation.
-
During disassembly and assembly, use special tools to avoid damaging the pump body and internal components; keep the operation environment clean to prevent impurities from entering the pump.
-
After replacing components, reassemble the pump in the reverse order of disassembly, and conduct a no-load test (5-8 minutes) to ensure the pump operates normally without leakage or abnormal noise.
