Do damping vibration isolators need maintenance?

1. Regular inspection: The condition of the damping vibration isolator should be checked regularly, including whether there is oil leakage, whether there are damaged or deformed components, etc. For example, wear or damage to oil seals and gaskets may lead to oil leakage, which requires timely replacement of relevant components.

 

2. Cleaning and lubrication: Keep the damping vibration isolator clean and lubricate it as needed. Using suitable lubricants, such as those containing molybdenum disulfide, can ensure the smooth operation of vibration isolators.

3. Check the operating status: The efficiency of the vibration isolator can be checked by pressing the upper body of the vibration isolator and vibrating it several times. When disassembling and inspecting, it should be ensured that the vibration isolator is fixed, and there should be a certain resistance when the piston rod moves up and down, and the upward resistance should be greater than the downward resistance.

 

4. Dealing with rust and scratches: If the damping vibration isolator is corroded or scratched, it should be dealt with in a timely manner. For rust, grinding solution can be used for polishing and grinding; For scratches, their severity should be evaluated and repair or replacement should be carried out if necessary.

 

5. Pay attention to the usage environment: When using damping vibration isolators, it is important to avoid using them in harsh environments to reduce the possibility of damage. At the same time, it is also necessary to avoid excessive use or misuse of vibration isolators.

 

In summary, regular maintenance is necessary to ensure the normal operation and prolong the service life of damping vibration isolators. This includes steps such as inspection, cleaning, lubrication, and addressing potential issues.
