Which outcome occurs from running a hydraulic pump continuously without load?

A)Accelerated mechanical seal degradation
B)Increased fluid viscosity from stasis
C)Overheating due to internal slippage
D)Oxidation within the hydraulic reservoir

💡 Explanation

When a hydraulic pump runs unloaded continuously, fluid bypass via internal clearances causes viscous friction and increased temperature from energy dissipation, leading to overheating because energy has no outlet. Therefore overheating is expected, rather than damage from other processes, due to lack of load and continuous internal friction.
