Hazards of Hydraulic Oil Contamination in a 630-Ton Hydraulic Press
Hazards of Hydraulic Oil Contamination in a 630-Ton Hydraulic Press:
1. When water is introduced into the oil, hydraulic oil will emulsify into a turbid state. If the hydraulic oil has poor emulsification resistance, water cannot separate from the oil after standing for some time, resulting in a consistently cloudy appearance. In this state, the white turbid emulsified oil entering the hydraulic system of the 630-ton hydraulic press not only causes rusting of hydraulic components but also reduces lubrication performance, exacerbating part wear and decreasing system efficiency.
2. After metal components in the hydraulic system of the hydraulic press rust, the peeling rust will flow through the hydraulic system pipelines and components, spreading throughout the entire system, leading to internal rusting. This process generates more peeled rust and oxides.
3. Moisture reacts with certain additives in the oil, producing precipitation, colloids, and other contaminants, accelerating oil aging. The reaction between water and sulfur/chlorine in the oil creates sulfuric acid and hydrochloric acid, intensifying component wear and corrosion. Oil oxidation and degradation, and even the formation of a substantial amount of sludge, can occur.
4. Water contaminants and oxidation byproducts act as catalysts for further oxidation, leading to clogging or blockages in hydraulic components. This results in system failures in the hydraulic system of the 630-ton hydraulic press, including blockages in distribution pipes and reduced efficiency. Blockages may occur in components like the cooler and oil filter, contributing to malfunctions in the system.
