Reasons and solutions for excessively high hydraulic oil temperature in metal balers

The reasons for the high temperature of the hydraulic oil in the metal baler may be the following:

• Hydraulic system design is unreasonable: the design parameters of the hydraulic system are unreasonable, such as the tank volume is too small, the radiator size is insufficient, etc., resulting in heat can not be dissipated in time.
• Hydraulic system workload is too large: a long time high load operation, such as the use of too high a frequency, working time is too long, the work process resistance is too large, resulting in the hydraulic oil can not dissipate heat in a timely manner.
• Hydraulic oil contamination: serious contamination of hydraulic oil, such as suspended dirt, impurities, water, etc., will lead to an increase in the viscosity of the hydraulic oil, friction increases, thus generating excessive heat.

Solutions include:

• Check the hydraulic system: make sure that the hydraulic system is well designed, the hydraulic oil tank has sufficient volume, and the radiator is properly sized. Also check whether the connectors, valves, pipelines, etc. in the system are leaking oil or loose.
• Enhance the maintenance of the hydraulic system: replace the hydraulic oil regularly and make sure it is of good quality to avoid contamination. Clean the oil tank, filter element, etc., to keep the hydraulic system tidy.
• Add heat dissipation equipment: according to the actual situation, you can add a radiator or increase the size of the radiator to improve the cooling efficiency of the hydraulic oil.
• Reduce the work load: Reasonable arrangement of working time and working frequency, to avoid excessive work load, give the hydraulic system sufficient cooling and rest time.
• Installation of temperature control devices: temperature control devices can be installed, when the hydraulic oil temperature exceeds the set value, automatically stop or reduce the work load to protect the hydraulic system.

In short, to solve the problem of high temperature of hydraulic oil in metal baler, it is necessary to consider from the hydraulic system design, maintenance, heat dissipation and working load and other aspects.
