New K5V pump

The K5V pump is a variable displacement piston pump equipped with a sophisticated variable control mechanism. It can realize the flow control, pressure control and power control of the hydraulic pump. The control functions of the variable adjustment mechanism include electric proportional displacement control, constant power control, pressure cut-off control, etc. With its excellent control performance, it is widely used in the field of construction machinery and other industries. There are various types of products like K5V200SH, K5V140S/DT, K5V112S, etc.

The maintenance of the K5V pump mainly includes the following aspects:


1. Regular inspection:

Daily inspection: Check the pump's operation status every day, including whether there is abnormal noise, vibration, and whether the temperature is normal. Listen carefully to the sound of the pump during operation. If there is a sudden increase in noise or abnormal sounds, stop the pump immediately for inspection. At the same time, feel the temperature of the pump body by hand. If the temperature is too high, it may indicate that there is a problem with the pump's operation.

Periodic inspection of key components: Regularly check the wear of key components such as plungers, cylinder blocks, and swash plates. If there is obvious wear or damage, replace the components in time. Also, check the tightness of bolts and nuts on the pump to ensure that they are firmly fixed.


2. Fluid management:

Use of suitable hydraulic oil: Select the hydraulic oil that meets the requirements of the K5V pump. The viscosity, temperature stability, and anti-oxidation performance of the hydraulic oil should be appropriate. It is recommended to use the hydraulic oil specified by the manufacturer.

Oil quality inspection and replacement: Regularly check the quality of the hydraulic oil, including its viscosity, acidity, and impurity content. If the oil quality deteriorates, replace the hydraulic oil in time. The replacement cycle of the hydraulic oil can be determined according to the operating environment and working hours of the pump, generally 3 to 6 months.

Prevention of oil leakage: Check the sealing performance of the pump regularly to ensure that there is no oil leakage at the connection between the pump and the pipeline, as well as at the shaft seal. If there is oil leakage, replace the sealing ring or repair the relevant parts in time.


3. Filter maintenance:

Regular cleaning or replacement of filters: The filter in the hydraulic system is an important device to ensure the cleanliness of the hydraulic oil. Regularly clean or replace the filter element according to the usage conditions. If the filter is blocked, it will affect the normal operation of the pump and even cause damage to the pump.

Installation of filters: Ensure that the filter is installed correctly and the filtration accuracy meets the requirements of the pump. When installing a new filter, make sure that the interface is sealed tightly to prevent air from entering the hydraulic system.


4. Proper operation and startup/shutdown:

Correct startup: Before starting the pump, make sure that the pump is filled with hydraulic oil, and check whether the rotation direction of the pump is correct. Start the pump slowly and gradually increase the speed to avoid sudden high-load operation.

Stable operation: During the operation of the pump, avoid frequent start-stop and overload operation. Keep the working pressure and flow rate of the pump within the rated range to ensure the stable operation of the pump.

Proper shutdown: When shutting down the pump, first reduce the load gradually, and then stop the pump. Do not shut down the pump suddenly to prevent hydraulic impact and damage to the pump.


5. Storage and protection when not in use:

Cleaning and preservation: If the pump is not used for a long time, clean the pump thoroughly, remove the hydraulic oil inside the pump, and apply anti-rust oil to the surface of the pump to prevent rust. Store the pump in a dry, ventilated, and dust-free place.

Regular inspection during storage: During the storage period, regularly check the pump's status to ensure that there is no damage or deterioration. If necessary, start the pump for a short time to check its operation.
