After delivery By default, control blocks are protected against corrosion with priming
(single-coat lacquer) or with a galvanized coating at the factory.
Mineral oil in plugged valves provides internal corrosion protection. Non-painted
or coating surfaces on the control block not provided with a galvanized coating
(e.g. flange surfaces) are not protected against corrosion.
Delayed commissioning, long freight and storage times or a prolonged
decommissioning of Rexroth control blocks leads to rust formation. Take additional
corrosion protection measures to prevent this.
After expiration of the maximum storage time, we recommend having the control
block checked by your Bosch Rexroth service partner.
If you have any questions regarding repair and spare parts, contact your responsible
Bosch Rexroth service partner or the service department of the control block
manufacturer's plant, see Chapter 10.5 "Spare parts" on page 40.
After removal If a removed control block is to be stored, it must be preserved against corrosion for
the duration of storage.
The following instructions only refer to control blocks which are operated with
a hydraulic fluid on a mineral oil basis. Other hydraulic fluids require other
specific preservation measures. In this case, please contact Bosch Rexroth.

Ports intended for connecting lines come with protective plugs or threaded plugs,
which serve as transport protection. All ports required for the function must be
connected. Failure to do so could lead to malfunctions or damage. If a port is not
being used, it is to be plugged with a threaded plug since the protective plugs are
not pressure-resistant.
CAUTION
Dangerous movements of the hydraulic consumers!
Risk of injury due to incorrect pin assignments or mixed up cable connectors
because of inadvertent consumer movement!
▶▶ Make sure that all the pipes and/or hoses have been attached to the correct
control block port and have not been mixed up under any circumstances.
▶▶ After completing connection work, check that the cable connectors are correctly
assigned to the respective control block solenoids.
NOTICE
Damage due to improper installation!
Hydraulic lines and hoses which are installed under tension create additional
mechanical forces during operation which reduce the service life of the control
block and the entire machine.
▶▶ Install hydraulic lines and hoses without mechanical stress.
The machine manufacturer is responsible for dimensioning the lines. The control
block must be connected to the rest of the hydraulic system in accordance with the
hydraulic circuit diagram of the machine manufacturer.
The ports and fastening threads are designed for the maximum pressure
specified in the data sheet. The machine manufacturer must ensure that the
connecting elements and lines correspond to the specified application conditions
(pressure, flow, hydraulic fluid, temperature) with the necessary safety factors.
Only connect hydraulic lines that are appropriate for the control block port
(pressure level, size, system of units).
Notice on routing of lines Observe the following notices when routing hydraulic lines.
•• Lines and hoses must be installed without pre-charge pressure so that no further
mechanical forces are applied during operation that will reduce the service life of
the control block and possibly of the entire machine.
•• Remove any resinification that has been created due to improper storage.
•• Use suitable seals as sealing material.
––Observe the sealing capability of the hydraulic fluid used.
––Use the provided seal at each hydraulic port.
––Pay attention to cleanliness and integrity of the connections.
•• Make sure the connections and connecting elements are airtight.
•• Pressure lines
––For the pressure lines, use only pipes, hoses and connecting elements rated
for the working pressure range specified in the data sheet. These must also be
pressure resistant against the external air pressure.
•• Drain line
––Always route the drain lines in a way that the control block is always filled with
hydraulic fluid and even during extended standstill periods cannot be emptied
hydraulically.
Risk of confusion with The control blocks are used in application areas with metric as well as with the
threaded connections Anglo-American (inch) system of units.
Both the system of units as well as the size of the female thread and stud end
(e.g. threaded plug) must match.
There is a risk of confusion due to the limited ways of visually telling them apart.
Observe the parameters contained in the offer drawing. Unless otherwise stated, in
general the SI units apply.
Port overview For an overview of line connections, refer to the respective data sheet and the offer
drawing.
Tightening torques Observe the parameters in the standards or the manufacturer's specifications for the
threaded plugs, stud end, fittings, valves, screw plugs, etc. Apart from this, be aware
that tightening torques can also depend on the permissible pressure and
temperature range and the application conditions.
6. Check all pipes and hose lines and every combination of connecting pieces,
couplings or connecting points with hoses or pipes to ensure they are in safe
working condition.
NOTICE
Negative effect on function due to incorrect plug-in connections!
Only the plug-in connections specified in the data sheet/offer drawing may be used
for electrical connection.
▶▶ Observe the installation specifications of the manufacturer of the plug-in
connection.
▶▶ Before commissioning, check to see whether the voltage in the power supply
matches the parameters in the offer drawing and whether the total current to be
expected is less than or the same as the load capacity of the power supply.
▶▶ Do not connect live plug-in connections. The assembly process may only
be repeated 10 times.

hydraulic fluid (see data sheet).
2. Ensure the hydraulic supply for the control block.
3. If present, ensure the electrical supply for the control block.
4. Check the electrical connection of the control block.
Before carrying out initial commissioning or recommissioning, have a qualified
electrician or somebody being supervised by a qualified electrician check that the
electrical connection is correct.
Observe the instruction manual of the machine in which the control block
is installed.
––If automatic air bleeding of the cover does not result in adequate venting,
you can carry out air bleeding using the air bleed screws that may be present
(series-dependent).
Procedure:
ATTENTION! When undoing the air bleed screw, hydraulic fluid can escape!
▶Undo
▶ the air bleed screw on the cover by about two thread rotations such that
the air can escape via the thread and the seal of the air bleed screw.
▶Switch
▶ the valve several times to air bleed the cover completely.
▶Fasten
▶ the air bleed screw taking into account the applicable tightening
torque.
––Also observe the parameters for air bleeding in the instruction manual of the

Always increase the pressure slowly, if a leakage occurs stop the functional test
immediately!
8. Check the control block hydraulic fluid temperature after it has been running
in continuous operation for several hours. Check whether the measured
temperature is within the product-specific limits. If the temperature is outside of
the specified limits, the Bosch Rexroth warranty is invalidated.
9. After the initial commissioning, have a hydraulic fluid sample analyzed for the
required cleanliness level. Change the hydraulic fluid if the required cleanliness
level is not reached. If no laboratory test is performed after initial commissioning,
then: Change the hydraulic fluid.
9 Operation
This product is a component which requires no settings or changes during operation.
For this reason, this chapter of the manual does not contain any information
on adjustment options. Use the product only within the power range specified in the
technical data. The machine manufacturer is responsible for the proper project
planning of the hydraulic system and its control.
▶▶ Avoid temperature shocks. A temperature difference of more than 20 °C between
the control block and the hydraulic fluid must not occur. Otherwise, there is a risk
of a jammed spool. At temperatures below 0°C, the control block must be run
until it is warm.
General instructions •• For applications below an ambient temperature of –20 °C, non-standard seals are
used. Different application limits are specified in the control block's Technical
Customer Documents (TKU).
•• Avoid moisture in the area surrounding the control blocks, since possible moisture
on the moving seals may freeze the seal to the control spool when at a standstill.
When moving the control spool, it is not possible to rule out the seal ring being
destroyed.
•• The limit viscosities specified in the data sheets for the control blocks must be
complied with by selecting a suitable hydraulic fluid across the entire operating
time both in winter and in summer with warmer temperatures.
––The values below apply to limiting conditions:
νmax = 2000 mm²/s
(Momentarily on cold starting, ϑmin = –40 °C)
νmin = 10 mm²/s
(Momentarily at max. permissible temperature of ϑmax = 80 °C/100 °C)
Note that the max. hydraulic fluid temperature of 80 °C (100 °C with FKM) must
not be exceeded, not even locally, e.g. at the pressure reducing valve.
•• When installing new components in a cold machine, they must first be filled at
higher temperatures so that sufficient lubrication is assured in all areas.
NOTICE
Overdue inspection and maintenance work!
Property damage!
▶▶ Perform the specified inspection and maintenance work at the intervals
described in this manual.
NOTICE
Damage to the hydraulic system and the seals!
