Hydraulic project planning

Pressure line
Sufficient burst resistance of the pipes, hoses and connect-
ing elements must be ensured for pressure lines. The cross
sections should be based on the maximum flow in order to
avoid additional excessive loading of the pump due to
back-pressure. Here, you must also take into account the
pipe losses over the entire pressure line length and other
line resistances (e.g., bends, pressure filters).

Pressure safeguarding
The PGP internal gear pump does not include any devices
for adherence to the maximum operating pressure. The
setting and safeguarding of the permissible operating pres-
sure must be ensured on the system side.
The pressure-relief valves necessary for this purpose are to
be designed with consideration given to the maximum flow
and the rate of pressure increase that will occur such that
the permissible intermittent operating pressure is not
exceeded.

Pressure holding function

In the variable-speed drive, the pump can also be temporar-
ily operated in the pressure holding function below the
specified minimum rotational speed. The holding time and
the rotational speed necessary for this purpose are a func-
tion of the operating viscosity and the pressure level. For
the design, please contact Bosch Rexroth‘s technical sales
department.
In the deactivated state (rotational speed = 0), a leakage
flow flows through the pump back into the reservoir,
depending on the load pressure. If this is to be prevented, a
check valve is to be used.
When using a check valve, please observe the note on the
air bleeding option for commissioning, page 11.

Required power unit functions

At a minimum, the hydraulic power units should be
equipped with the following features:
▶▶ Reservoirs that are designed so that the internal pres-
sure corresponds to the ambient pressure should be V1
equipped with ventilation filters for pressure compensa-
tion purposes.
▶▶ The hydraulic fluid should only be filled using filling
nozzles that eliminate the possibility of filling with unfil-
tered fluid.
▶▶ The ingress of contamination or moisture must be
avoided. If used in highly contaminated environments,
the reservoir must, for this purpose, be precharged by
means of air pressure. If cleaning of the reservoir exte-
rior is planned or anticipated during the period of use,
reservoir bushings for pipes, lines, or hoses are to be
selected so that a secure seal is ensured against external
pressurization with a water jet.

parameters is to be ensured:
▶▶ The required oil cleanliness
▶▶ The operating temperature range
▶▶ The filling level of the operating medium
Furthermore, the pump and the system are to be checked
for changes to the following parameters on a regular basis:
▶▶ Vibrations
▶▶ Noise
▶▶ Temperature difference between pump – fluid in the
reservoir
▶▶ Foaming in the reservoir
▶▶ Leak-proofness
Changes to these parameters indicate component wear
(e.g., diesel engine, coupling, pump, etc.). The reason is to
be determined and remedied immediately.
In order to achieve high operational safety of the pump in
the machine or system, we recommend checking the afore-
mentioned parameters continuously and automatically and
the automatic shut-down in case of changes exceeding the
usual fluctuations in the specified operating range.
Plastic components of drive couplings should be replaced
regularly, though after no more than 5 years. The corre-
sponding manufacturer’s specifications are paramount.
For preventive maintenance of the pump, we recommend
having the seals replaced after an operating period of no
more than 5 years by an authorized Bosch Rexroth service
company.
