Best practices for keeping your hydraulic system running efficiently.
How do you check oil condition?
Visual inspection for discoloration, foaming, or particles Lab analysis provides a detailed breakdown of contamination, viscosity, acidity, and wear metals This helps determine oil life and potential system issues.
How do you dispose of hydraulic oil?
Collect used oil in approved containers Take it to a licensed waste oil recycling or disposal facility Never pour it into drains or the environment — it’s illegal and harmful.
How do you prevent contamination?
Use sealed containers and clean tools Always clean hose ends and fittings before connecting Install high-quality filtration on return lines and reservoirs Avoid opening the system unnecessarily
How do you store hydraulic hoses?
In a clean, dry, and cool environment Away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and ozone-producing equipment Preferably stored horizontally on racks to prevent kinking or deformation
How often should filters be changed?
At regular service intervals or when a clogging indicator signals high restriction. It’s best to change filters before they reach full capacity to avoid bypassing dirty fluid.
How often should hydraulic oil be changed?
Typically every 2,000 operating hours, or as recommended by the equipment manufacturer. Factors like system cleanliness, load, and temperature can influence intervals. Always verify with oil analysis if unsure.
What is a breather cap?
A breather cap allows air to enter or exit the reservoir as fluid levels change, without letting contaminants in. Some include filters to trap airborne particles or moisture.
What is preventive maintenance in hydraulics?
Scheduled checks and service tasks (e.g., inspecting hoses, changing filters, checking oil) to prevent unexpected failures, extend system life, and reduce downtime.
What tools are used in hydraulic diagnostics?
Pressure gauges to check line pressure Flow meters to measure flow rate Infrared thermometers or thermal cameras to detect hotspots Ultrasonic leak detectors to find air or fluid leaks Test kits for oil sampling
Why should systems be flushed?
Flushing removes contaminants like metal shavings, dirt, or water — especially important after repairs, system assembly, or oil changes. It helps prevent premature wear and failures.
