What are the recommendations for use and maintenance of hydraulic hoses?

Hydraulic hoses are indispensable components in modern industrial and mobile equipment. They play the role of energy transmission and fluid delivery in hydraulic systems. To ensure the efficient and stable operation of the system, the reasonable use and maintenance of hydraulic hoses are essential. The following is a series of suggestions on the use and maintenance of hydraulic hoses.

1. Choose the right hydraulic hose:

The selection of hydraulic hoses should be determined based on factors such as the working pressure, working temperature, medium type, and flow rate of the hydraulic system. The working pressure of the hose should be greater than the maximum working pressure of the system, the working temperature range should meet the requirements of the system, the medium type should be compatible with the hose material, and the flow rate should meet the needs of the system.

2. When installing hydraulic hoses, pay attention to the following points:

Avoid excessive bending and twisting of the hose to avoid damage to the steel wire layer and rubber layer inside the hose.

Avoid stretching and squeezing the hose to avoid damage to the structure of the hose.

Avoid direct contact between the hose and other metal parts to avoid friction and wear.

Use appropriate joints and seals to ensure that the hose is firmly connected to the system and the seal is reliable.

Hydraulic hoses are easily affected by the external environment during use, such as friction, wear, high temperature, chemical corrosion, etc.

3. To avoid excessive wear and damage to the hose, the following points should be noted:

Check the appearance of the hose regularly. If there is wear, cracks, deformation, etc., it should be replaced in time.

Avoid contact between the hose and sharp objects to avoid scratching the surface of the hose.

Avoid long-term exposure of the hose to high temperatures to avoid softening and aging.

4. Proper maintenance of hydraulic hoses:

Regular inspection: Regularly check the appearance and internal structure of the hydraulic hose, and deal with any abnormalities in time. Appearance inspection includes checking whether the surface of the hose is worn, cracked, deformed, etc.; internal structure inspection includes checking whether the steel wire layer of the hose is broken, corroded, etc. If a problem is found in the hose, it should be replaced in time.

Keep clean: Hydraulic hoses are easily invaded by contaminants such as dust, oil, and moisture during use. These contaminants will affect the working performance and life of the hose. Therefore, the hydraulic hose should be cleaned regularly to keep it clean.

Proper storage of hydraulic hoses: When the hydraulic hose is not in use, it should be stored properly to avoid bending and twisting of the hose. The hose should be stored vertically to avoid being affected by external pressure and gravity. At the same time, the hose should be stored in a dry and ventilated place to avoid moisture and corrosion.

Regular replacement: Hydraulic hoses will age and fatigue after being used for a period of time, which will lead to performance degradation and safety hazards of the hoses. Therefore, hydraulic hoses should be replaced regularly to ensure the normal operation of the hydraulic system.

In summary, the correct use and maintenance of hydraulic hoses are essential to the working efficiency and safety of the hydraulic system. Correctly selecting suitable hydraulic hoses, correctly installing hoses, avoiding excessive wear and damage of hoses, regularly checking hoses, keeping hoses clean, properly storing hoses, and regularly replacing hoses are the keys to ensuring the normal operation of hydraulic hoses. Only by doing a good job in the use and maintenance of hydraulic hoses can the reliability and safety of the hydraulic system be ensured.
