Hydraulic tank device

The tank is a common reservoir for both hydraulic brake circuits. In order to ensure an independent supply of liquid to each circuit, in the case 10 (pic. 137) the tank is made of a partition, and in the lower part of the body there are two tips for connecting hoses from the main cylinder.



The body of the tank is made of translucent plastic, which allows you to control the liquid level visually.

A cap 9 is screwed onto the filler neck of the tank, which presses the body 7 of the terminal device and the reflector 3 to the end of the neck. In case 4, a device for monitoring the level of liquid in the tank is mounted. It consists of a float 1, on the rod 2 of which there is a movable contact 6, and a fixed contact 5 fixed in a plastic housing 4.

When the liquid level drops, the float drops, the contacts close the circuit of the control lamp, which lights up with a constant light.

A pusher 8 is installed in the central hole of the housing 7 of the terminal device, when pressed, the operability of the control lamp circuit is checked at a full liquid level in the tank. In case 7 there are two terminals for connecting wires to them.
