Standard maintenance of electric forklift truck is the guarantee of stable operation of the equipment, not only that, but also can extend the service life of the equipment. The wear of each component has a lot to do with daily actual operation and usage conditions. In addition, electric forklift manufacturers should remind everyone that neglect of regular maintenance will not only affect the use of equipment, but also pose a threat to the personal safety of staff. Among them, adding brake fluid is also a very important link, let's talk about related issues below.
Let's first talk about the performance requirements of electric forklift truck brake fluid. This type of product needs to have good low temperature properties, because if it encounters low temperature weather, the fluidity of the brake fluid is poor, and it is easy to solidify. This situation will cause the pipeline, pump and other components to become blocked, resulting in a hard and hard brake pedal. Unable to brake. Therefore, electric forklift manufacturers recommend that everyone try to apply the brake fluid that can still flow freely at -40°C.


But this requires everyone to be aware that a brake fluid with too high viscosity will have very poor low temperature fluidity, and its braking performance will also decrease; but a brake fluid with too low viscosity will not only fail to be reliable in a high temperature environment. The lubricating effect of the oil will be easy to leak. Therefore, in order to ensure that the brake cylinder and rubber cup can slide well, electric forklift manufacturers remind everyone to have requirements for the viscosity of the brake fluid.
There are also requirements for the boiling point of the brake fluid. During the working process of an electric forklift, the brake friction lining is in a long-term braking state, and the temperature of the braking system rises. If the brake fluid with low boiling point is easy to evaporate, it is easy to cause brake failure. Therefore, electric forklift manufacturers recommend that you choose a brake fluid with a high boiling point.
In addition, choosing a brake fluid with strong corrosion resistance will not corrode metal pipes and components, and its good stability will reduce the thermal decomposition and overlap of the brake fluid, and will not generate sludge deposits. In the brake system, there are many rubber seals. In order not to reduce the mechanical strength and elasticity of rubber seals such as brake cups, it is required that the brake fluid has a small effect on the expansion rate of the rubber, so as to prevent the cups from being immersed in the system for a long time. The dynamic fluid causes abnormal changes in strength, volume and quality.
The above is the content of electric forklift truck brake fluid brought by forklift truck manufacturers. If you have any questions, please call for consultation.
