Hydraulic system contamination causes most faults. water well drilling rig.Control solids, water and air to reduce wear and blockages.

 

  1. Solid particle control: Use filtered oil guns; replace filters regularly. Keep repair areas clean. Sand from unfiltered oil once jammed valves—fix with new oil/filters.
  2. Moisture prevention: Fit desiccant breathers; check water content. Over 0.1%? Change oil or use separators. Rain covers help outdoors—failed breathers once rusted a pump.
  3. Air removal: Bleed air after first startup or repairs. Open top valves to release bubbles; run empty to clear more. Unbled new rigs made motor noise—bleeding fixed it.

Strict contamination rules extend component life, cut faults, and keep rigs stable.water well drilling rig
