Hydraulic distributor repair

Hydraulic distributor is an essential element of any hydraulic system. It is an important component of the construction of many pump systems used in various industries. /Hydraulic distributor repair/

Hydraulic distributor

They determine the direction of fluid flow in hydraulic systems. They transferring mechanical energy from the place of its production to the place driven by liquid. With the help of a distributor, we can, for example, relieve the pump when a technological break is needed. The distributor was designed to control the direction of liquid movement in the system. If for some reason there is a sudden lack of flow in the system, the distributor protects the pump against overload. In addition, it allows you to control the position of the pump in the system. Hydraulic distributors often play the role of simple controllers in the pneumatic system. They are used to start and stop a motor or pneumatic cylinder. Forklifts or baling presses, among others, cannot work without distributors. On the other hand, intrinsically safe distributors are used in underground mining as well as in potentially explosive areas.

Hydraulic distributor repair explosive areas.

The most common symptom of a damage is a clear decrease in the work efficiency. But not of the whole machine but one of its elements. For example, cylinder forces. Repair of a damaged consists in separating all sections of the device, finding a faulty element and its replacement or regeneration. It almost never happens that the entire distributor is damaged. One or two of its sections responsible for a given set of activities fall most often.

Distributors in excavators break down the least often of all elements of the hydraulic power system. By far the most common failures are driving engines, hydraulic pumps and columns of rotation.

IMPORTANT

If you experience a drop in the blade cylinder force, consider that it doesn’t have to be the distributor’s fault. In 90% of excavators, the hydraulic oil from the distributor to the blade cylinder additionally flows through the rotation column, which may have internal leaks, which in turn leads to overflow of hydraulic oil and automatic opening of the blade cylinder.
