Disadvantages of filling the pump oil tank to capacity

2017-08-23View Original

Thread Content

When filling the oil tank of the running pump, it is required to fill it to 1/2–2/3 of the level indicated by the sight glass. It is strictly prohibited to fill the tank to capacity. What are the disadvantages of filling it to the top for the pump? Please share your thoughts; extra points for that

Materials expand when heated and contract when cooled; filling it up can damage the fuel tank, and the fuel level gauge becomes unreadable.

Filling the oil to capacity hinders heat dissipation, leading to excessive temperature rise in the bearings; It is not possible to determine pump failures intuitively ; It may cause unnecessary leaks ;

Excessively high oil levels can cause slipping or separation due to increased rotational motion; the friction between oil molecules raises the bearing temperature, and it also increases oil leakage from the gaps as well as the power loss due to oil friction

Filling it to the brim hinders heat dissipation, causing the bearing housing temperature to rise, which actually undermines the desired effect

Thermal expansion and contraction can easily cause the oil seal to leak.

It hinders heat dissipation, raises the bearing temperature, and reduces the bearing’s service life!

1. Oil leakage: oil will flow out along the shaft and drip; 2. Strong stirring, high temperature.
