When to use a manual hydraulic directional control?
They are often associated with the control of a hydraulic actuator, such as a cylinder or motor, to select either ‘forward, reverse or stop’ but can also be used anywhere in a system where flow needs to be switched between alternative paths. Author: Steve Skinner
Where can I get an introduction to hydraulics?
An introduction to the science of hydraulics and hydraulic systems which explores the diversity of applications in which hydraulic systems can be found and how those systems work. www.hydraulicsonline.com
How does a truck mounted hydraulic system work?
PRINCIPLES OF HYDRAULICS Truck-mounted hydraulic systems, regardless of their application, have in common the basic components and operating principles of any hydraulic system. They utilize a power source, reservoir, pump, directional control valve, and actuators to move and control fluid in order to accomplish work.
How much horsepower does a hydraulic system need?
Example: A hydraulic system requires 12 GPM at an operating pressure of 2,000 PSI. The hydraulic horsepower requirement is: 12 × 2,000 ÷ 1,714 = 14 HP
