Hydraulic fluids
Hydraulic fluids
The A7VO variable pump is designed for operation with HLP
mineral oil according to DIN 51524.
Application instructions and requirements for hydraulic
fluids should be taken from the following data sheets
before the start of project planning:
▶ 90220: Hydraulic fluids based on mineral oils and
related hydrocarbons
▶ 90221: Environmentally acceptable hydraulic fluids
▶ 90222: Fire-resistant, water-free hydraulic fluids
(HFDR/HFDU)
▶ 90223: Fire-resistant, water-containing hydraulic fluids
(HFC, HFB, HFAE, HFAS)
Details regarding the selection of hydraulic fluid
The hydraulic fluid should be selected such that the
operating viscosity in the operating temperature range is
within the optimum range (νopt, see selection diagram).
Note
At no point of the component may the temperature be
higher than 115 °C. The temperature difference specified in
the table is to be taken into account when determining the
viscosity in the bearing.
If it is not possible to maintain the conditions above due to
extreme operating parameters, we recommend flushing the
case at port U.

Filtration of the hydraulic fluid
Finer filtration improves the cleanliness level of the hydrau-
lic fluid, which in turn increases the service life of the axial
piston unit.
A cleanliness level of at least 20/18/15 is to be maintained
according to ISO 4406.
At very high hydraulic fluid temperatures (90°C to maxi-
mum 103°C, measured at portR1/R2) a cleanliness level is
necessary of at least 19/17/14 according to ISO 4406.
Leakage
The case interior is connected to the suction chamber. A
separate case drain line from the case to the reservoir is
therefore not required (both Rports are plugged).
Exception: For versions with pressure controller or pressure
cut-off, a drain line is needed to relieve port T1to the
reservoir.
Shaft seal ring
Permissible pressure loading
The service life of the shaft seal is influenced by the speed
of the axial piston unit and the leakage pressure in the
housing (case pressure). Momentary pressure spikes
(t<0.1s) up to 10bar are allowed. The service life of the
shaft seal decreases with increasing frequency of pressure
spikes and increasing mean differential pressure.
The case pressure must be equal to or higher than the
ambient pressure.

Effect of radialforce Fqon the service life of bearings
By selecting a suitable direction of radial force Fq, the load
on the bearings, caused by the internal rotary group forces
can be reduced, thus optimizing the service life of the
bearings. Recommended position of mating gear is depen-
dent on direction of rotation. Example:
Note
▶ The permissible axial force in direction −Fax is to be
avoided, because thereby the bearing life is reduced.
▶ Special requirements apply in the case of belt drives.

LR – Power controller without power override
The power controller regulates the displacement of the
pump depending on the operating pressure so that a given
drive power is not exceeded at constant drive speed.
The precise control with a hyperbolic control characteristic,
provides an optimum utilization of available power.
The operating pressure acts on a rocker via a measuring
spool which moves with the control. An externally adjust-
able spring force counteracts this, it determines the power
setting.
If the operating pressure exceeds the set spring force, the
control valve is actuated by the rocker and the pump swiv-
els back from the initial position Vgmax toward Vgmin. When
doing this, the lever length at the rocker shortens and the
operating pressure may rise in the same proportion as the
displacement reduces without the drive power being
exceeded (pB×Vg=constant; pB=operating pressure;
Vg=displacement).
When depressurized, the pump is swiveled to its initial
position to Vg max by a return spring.
The hydraulic output power (characteristic LR) is influ-
enced by the efficiency of the pump.

10 A7VO Series 63 | Axial piston variable pump
LR – Power controller without power override
LRD – Power controller with pressure cut-off
The pressure cut-off is a pressure control which adjusts the
displacement of the pump back to Vg min after reaching the
set pressure command value.
This function overrides the power controller, i.e. the power
control function is executed below the pressure command
value.
Pressure cut-off is preset to a pressure command value at
the factory.
▶ Setting range 200 to 350 bar
When ordering, state the setting in plain text.
Notes
▶ The pressure setting of the pressure cut-off must be at
least a factor of 5 higher than the beginning of control
of power control.
Example:
– Beginning of control of the power controller: 50bar
– Minimum setting of pressure cut-off:
5×50=250bar
Higher settings of the pressure cut-off are always
possible.
▶ For versions with pressure cut-off, a drain line is
needed from port T1to the reservoir.
When port T1is plugged and ttank≤50°C, this results
in a permissible pressure cut-off of≤2 min.
▶ Any pressure-relief valve included in the system to limit
the maximum pressure must have its start of opening
at least 20 bar above the pressure cut-off setting.
