Hydraulic Hose Safety

摘要

Maintenance and safety considerations for high-pressure hydraulic hose assemblies in ground support equipment High-pressure hydraulic systems are an integral part of airport ground support equipment (GSE), such as auxiliary power units, loading systems, deicers, and runway and taxiway snow-plows. This equipment is built to meet tough 24/7/365 aircraft and airport service demands. But, should a system go down, and a high-pressure hydraulic hose is the source of the problem, Parker research has found that getting a replacement assembly can be a nightmare for the maintenance crew for these reasons:
