When does the lockable gas spring need to be replaced and its advantages

Controllable gas spring is an industrial accessory that can support, cushion, brake and adjust height and angle. It is widely used in daily life, but the gas spring is a worn accessory. After a period of use, some problems will occur. What is the advantage of controllable gas spring? What are the advantages? When does it need to be replaced?

Advantages of controllable gas spring

The principle of controllable gas spring is different from that of ordinary mechanical spring. The principle of controllable gas spring is to fill the closed pressure cylinder with inert gas or oil-gas mixture, so that the pressure in the chamber is several times or dozens of times higher than the atmospheric pressure. The movement of the piston rod is realized by using the pressure difference generated by the cross-sectional area of the piston rod being smaller than the cross-sectional area of the piston. Its calculation is based on the combination of lever principle and linear inverse ratio theorem. Ordinary spring is a mechanical part that works by elastic force. Parts made of elastic materials deform under the action of external force, and then recover to the original state after the external force is removed. The air spring moves slowly and is easy to control. The pneumatic device has simple structure, light weight and is easy to install and maintain, but the cost of air spring may be higher than that of mechanical spring.

Types Of Gas Springs

What will happen if the controllable gas spring needs to be replaced?

1、 Gas spring control is not sensitive. The gas spring is easy to control because of its slow action. However, if the gas spring is insensitive or slow in use, it means that the gas spring may have a small fault and needs to be replaced.

2、 The noise of gas spring is constant during use. If the air spring has noise, its continuous existence indicates that the air spring is faulty and needs to be replaced.

When these behaviors occur to the controllable gas spring, it indicates that the gas spring may fail and needs to be removed or replaced in time. Generally, good gas springs can be used stably for a long time. Poor gas springs are prone to noise or insensitivity after being used for a period of time, which affects our normal use. So when we understand the use of gas springs, we should avoid the risk of poor quality and buy gas springs with good quality and good reputation.
