Measuring Oil Temperature
To measure temperature of the oil in a hydraulic test port reservoir, an odd candy thermometer could be inserted via the filler opening after removing the protecting display, if any. Or by some other entry hole which may be out there. To stop entry of dirt, the access hole shouldn’t be left open any longer than mandatory.
R7 Simulation Tester is designed for LRRS (Lifeboat Launch & Retrieval system) to perform on-load and off-load test. The equipment lifts up lifeboat by hydraulic energy and takes over lifeboat weight. The operating personnel can pull the release handle to show the release hook to open condition to verify the operate of the gear.
Installation Methodology 1 (The traditional way):
1. Clamp the hose end in a vise with mushy jaws. To stop straight hose ends from spinning, screw it onto a male AN fitting first.
2. Lube the barb with clear motor oil.
3. Slide the Oetiker clamp(s) onto the hose.
4. Heat the tip of the hose in boiling water for five to 10 seconds. This makes the rubber more pliable.
5. Slide the hose over the barbed fitting with a twisting motion.
6. Install Oetiker clamp(s).
