For construction machinery or demanding stationary systems, an operating pressure of 500 bar and more is normal. <\/p><p>As long as the system runs without faults, this operating pressure poses no danger. However, if a hydraulic line bursts or tears off, a dangerous situation can quickly arise. The loose hose end then whips around at high speed, spraying hot, high-pressure hydraulic fluid. This poses a life-threatening risk to bystanders.
