Hydraulic system failures with multiple symptoms usually have a common root cause: oil contamination may cause axial piston pump wear (increased noise), valve core sticking (abnormal operation) and filter blockage (insufficient flow) at the same time. System air intake will generate noise and reduce the elastic modulus of the oil, resulting in weak actuator action and pressure fluctuations. Excessive oil temperature will accelerate seal aging (increased leakage), reduce viscosity (increased internal leakage), and promote oil oxidation (producing acidic substances). The methods for determining the central fault source include: Time correlation analysis-which symptom appears first may be the root cause. Commonality analysis-find common factors that can explain all abnormalities. Parameter trend-check historical operating data to find the parameters that deviate from normal first. Oil detection-comprehensive oil analysis can reveal a variety of potential problems. For example, the simultaneous occurrence of loud pump noise, high oil temperature and weak cylinder may be caused by excessive internal leakage in the pump, resulting in insufficient flow and energy loss.
