Which risk increases when a hydraulic actuator's rod seal fails in a robotic arm used for precision assembly?

A)Contamination of the assembly environment
B)Increased thermal stress on servo motors
C)Reduced power consumption due to leakage
D)Erratic motion due to controller malfunction

💡 Explanation

When the rod seal fails, hydraulic fluid leaks into the surrounding environment because pressure exceeds sealing capacity, leading to contamination of sensitive components. Therefore, environmental contamination increases, rather than motor stress or reduced power especially erratic motion which requires sensor feedback issues.
