hydraulinestesäiliöitä
Hydraulinestesäiliö, often referred to as a hydraulic reservoir, is a critical component in hydraulic systems. Its primary function is to store the hydraulic fluid, which acts as the power transmission medium. The reservoir also plays a role in cooling the fluid by dissipating heat to the surroundings, a process facilitated by its surface area and sometimes by integrated cooling elements. Furthermore, it helps in separating air and contaminants from the fluid. Air can cause cavitation and reduce system efficiency, while contaminants can lead to wear and damage to system components. The design of a hydraulic reservoir varies depending on the application, but common features include an inlet for fluid return, an outlet for fluid supply to the pump, a fill port, a breather cap to equalize pressure and filter incoming air, and a drain plug for maintenance. The size of the reservoir is typically determined by factors such as the system's operating volume, the required cooling capacity, and the need for fluid settling. Proper reservoir maintenance, including regular fluid level checks and filtration, is essential for the longevity and reliable operation of the hydraulic system.
