Hydraulic Circuit
Introduction In this chapter we will discuss basic hydraulic circuits that used the most basic components that make up a hydraulic system. Basic electrical control devices (push button switches, pressure switches, solenoids, relays, timers and basic electrical control devices (ladder diagram) will not be included. A hydraulic circuit is a group of components such as pumps, actuators, control valves and conductors (pipes) are arranged so that they will perform a certain task. Three important factors when analyzing or designing hydraulic circuit: 1. safety of operation 2. performance of desired function 3. efficiency of operation Circuit drawing has to be done using standards that are recognized worldwide. Standard are important for the following reasons: 1. interchangeable of components 2. symbols and circuit diagrams can be read by everyone. So that the hydraulic circuit can be interpreted and install correctly. The standards organizations in this field are: 1. BS (British Standards) 2. ANSI (American National Standards Institution) 3. ISO (International Standards Organization)
