  • Page 34 Service and Repair Guide 3.1 Proper Setting of the Thrust Screw Make sure the pump is in “deadhead” condition before attempting adjustment of the thrust screw. The “deadhead”, or compensated condition, can be reached by blocking the outlet port by shutting off downstream valves which means that the output flow is blocked.
  • Page 35 " Allen wrench is required. For the VPV 45–164 a spanner wrench is required. The spanner is available in the VPV Tool Kit, Bosch part number 9 511 230 557. • While observing a pressure gage turn the thrust screw clockwise to increase pressure, or counter- clockwise to decrease pressure, to the appropriate thrust screw pressure in the proper table above.

The multiple leakage connections shown are only for functional representation Fig. 3.2-1 The single stage compensator consists of a spool, spring and adjusting screw, which are assembled in a body and bolted to the pump body.
  • Page 37 Service and Repair Guide 3.2 Adjustment Procedures – Single Stage Compensator When there is no resistance to pump flow, the spring will force the spool into the spring offset or “bottomed out” position (Fig. 3.2-4) shown. In this position, fluid from the pressure port can flow through the compensator to the control piston and allow system pressure to be applied to the control piston.
  • Page 38 Service and Repair Guide 3.3 Adjustment Procedures – Two-Stage Compensator The two-stage control works exactly the same as the single stage control. However, instead of loading the spool with a spring, it is hydraulically loaded. To do this, a small relief valve referred to as the second stage is connected to the spring chamber.
  • Page 39 Service and Repair Guide 3.3 Adjustment Procedures – Two-Stage Compensator As system pressure increases, the pressure at the ends of the spool is always equal until it reaches the second stage setting. At that point the relief valve (second stage) will open and limit the pressure in the bias spring chamber by allowing fluid from the chamber to flow to tank.
  • Page 40 Service and Repair Guide 3.4 Multi-Pressure Compensator Multi-pressure pump control can markedly reduce horsepower demand and heat generation during periods of idle time or time in the machine operating cycle when maximum pressure is not required. The modular design of the standard two-stage compensator lends itself to variable preset multi-pressure control arrangements with integral or remotely located valving.

Once again, the solenoid must be closed to begin compensator adjustment.
  • Page 44 Service and Repair Guide 3.5 Load Sense The purpose of the load sensing flow control is to maintain constant flow regardless of changes in load or pump shaft rotational speed. This is accomplished by using an external metering valve and continually sensing pressure drop across this valve with a pilot line.
  • Page 45 Service and Repair Guide 3.5 Load Sense All orifices must be non-pressure compensated and sharp edged for temperature stability. If only low accuracy is needed, the DP of a four-way valve or other two-way is generally useable. Remember that at least 100 PSI (200 PSI for VPV 100–164) DP must be developed at the minimum flow rate or the LSFC will not work well.

  • Page 54 The case drain lines from multiple pumps in a combination should independently be plumbed back into the reservoir to prevent problems. Bosch recommends not to install check valves in case drain lines if possible. If necessary, Bosch strongly recommends “swing style” check valves which have low mass and will limit case drain spikes.
  • Page 55 If your pump incorporates the optional screw volume control, Bosch recommends not reducing the pump’s output flow by more than 50% on start-up (pump-flow is reduced by turning the adjustment screw clockwise).
