Personnel Qualifications - Bosch Rexroth 70 Series Instruction Manual

• Use of the axial piston unit with assembled parts under water at a depth of
more than 10 meters without the necessary additional measures, e.g. pressure
equalization Units with electrical components (e.g. sensors) generally cannot come
into contact with water
• Use of the axial piston unit under a continuous pressure differential between
housing and ambient pressure greater than 2 bar, with the ambient pressure always
lower than the case pressure. Momentary (t < 0.1 s) pressure peaks of up to 10 bar
are permissible. Beyond this, the maximum permissible case pressure specified in
the data sheet should not be exceeded.
• Use of the axial piston unit in explosive environments unless the component or
machine/system has been certified as compliant with the ATEX directive 2014/34/EC
• Use of the axial piston unit in a corrosive atmosphere
• Use of the axial piston unit in aircraft or spacecraft
