• Easy Maintenance: Modular design allows for quick replacement of wear parts, minimizing downtime for road roller fleets.

4. Application Fields in Road Rollers

• Single Drum Vibratory Rollers: Closed circuit (P-type) models for vibration systems, open circuit (S-type) models for travel drives and steering mechanisms.
• Double Drum Vibratory Rollers: Dual pump configurations for independent control of front and rear drum vibration systems.
• Combination Rollers: Multi-functional pumps for vibration, travel, and compaction control in mixed soil and asphalt applications.
• Static Rollers: Open circuit models for travel drives and hydraulic steering systems.
• Landfill Compactors: Heavy-duty P30 models for high torque requirements in waste compaction applications.

6. Installation and Operation Notes for Road Rollers

• Before installation, verify the pump model, circuit type, control mechanism, and rotation direction match road roller hydraulic system requirements.
• Mount the pump on a rigid base using high-strength bolts and proper torque specifications (refer to Parker technical documentation) to withstand road roller vibration.
• Ensure accurate alignment between pump shaft and prime mover (engine) shaft (concentricity ≤ 0.1 mm) to prevent shaft damage from road roller operation.
• Use a heavy-duty flexible coupling designed for high vibration applications to connect the pump and prime mover.
• Connect hydraulic lines correctly: pressure port (P) to system pressure line, tank port (T) to oil tank line, and control ports (LS/PC) to respective control system lines; reverse connection will cause pump failure.
• Fill the pump with hydraulic oil compatible with road roller operating conditions before starting to ensure proper lubrication.
• Prime the pump by rotating the shaft manually (5-10 revolutions) to remove air from the pump and hydraulic lines before initial start-up.
• Start the pump at low speed (≤1000 rpm) and no load, gradually increasing speed and load to rated values to avoid sudden pressure changes.
• Maintain hydraulic oil cleanliness at NAS 6 level or higher, and install a high-precision filter (≥5 μm) in the system to prevent damage from construction site contaminants.
• Control hydraulic oil temperature within -20°C to 95°C; install an oil cooler if operating in high-temperature environments.
• Regularly inspect the pump for oil leakage, abnormal noise, and pressure fluctuations during road roller operation; stop immediately if abnormalities are detected.
• When adjusting flow or pressure for road roller functions, follow Parker technical manual and ensure the system is in a safe state.
• Use only genuine Parker replacement parts to maintain performance and reliability; non-genuine parts may cause reduced efficiency and premature failure.
• Do not disassemble the pump without authorization; consult Parker technical manual or professional maintenance personnel for service.
• Store the pump in a dry, clean, and well-ventilated environment when not in use, protecting it from dust and moisture common in construction sites.
