11. I have a servovalve which leaks externally. What do you think is wrong witht the servovalve?

Solution

In a servovalve the main reason for an external leakage can be failure of O-ring or a fractured flexure tube.The leakages which are external can be hazardous.,expensive and can\'t be seen easily.Another reason for these leakeges could be the improper installation and poor maintenance of the valve.Or maybe the joints were not put in place rightly.

Vibration or shock in the lines may also shake them loose.Failure in connecting drain lines,excessive pressure,or seals can blow off due to contamination.

Above may be the reasons for the external leakage in a servovalve.
