Temperature compensation in measuring technology
therefore be balanced out by suitable measures, for example in the case of pressure measurements with a with the aid of compensation measuring strips, which are arranged perpendicular to the direction of
Kv value (of valves)
equates the actual flow resistance of compressed air with that of water. It also ignores the fact that resistance in both flow directions associated with a 4-way valve can vary greatly (by up to 50%).
Pressure centring on directional valves
high flow forces pilot-controlled directional valves for high flow rates are not returned with springs but with hydraulic pressure to the centre position and centred there. This action is achieved by the
Pilot-controlled valves
Valves with a large nominal width (generally greater than the nominal size 16 or sometimes at nominal size 10 or nominal size 6) and therefore with large actuation forces are pilot-controlled by a smaller
Ball valve
Ball seated valve : Directional or check valve with a freely moving ball as the blocking element. Excellent in terms of keeping designs simple, but is only suitable for small valve sizes. 2/2-way ball [...] ball valve : Shut-off valve (2/2-way, occasionally also a 3/2-way valve) with a ball as the rotating blocking element. Is available up to the largest nominal widths ( Figure K 39 ). Ball check valve : Check
Hydraulic accumulator

With a hydraulic accumulator, the following characteristics are significant: Precharge pressure : Pressure required, during filling with gas, in order to achieve the final [...] be, the accident prevention provisions set out in UVV 17 "Hydraulic accumulators" must be complied with when using hydraulic accumulators! Accumulator which stores a fluid under pressure and is therefore [...] latter is the only accumulator which keeps the pressure constant during withdrawal of the volume. With hydropneumatic accumulators and spring accumulators by contrast, the fluid pressure decreases - due
Regenerative circuit
area to the piston area. On differential cylinders with the ratio of piston areas α = 2 the same piston extension and retraction velocity is achieved with the same flow rate in the inlet using the regenerative
AC solenoid
Solenoid , that works with alternating current (Figure W 3). AC solenoids have a shorter switching time than DC solenoids, greater tensile force and a simpler construction design. The disadvantage is that [...] that they work with a high level of wear at underloads. The armature must always travel its full stroke, otherwise the coil will break through. Therefore, there must be no stroke limitation - even when
Fluid power standards
Responsibility for working on and drafting standards for fluid technology lies with the specialist fluid technology department at the Normenausschuss Maschinenbau (Standards Committee Mechanical Engineering [...] Engineering – NAM). They work on all DIN, ISO and DIN ISO standards. In addition, recommendations with regard to fluid technology are also provided by CETOP and VDMA, and there are VDI guidelines too. A very
Variable pump
Hydraulic pump with a to the pressure, the flow rate or the state variable of an actuator . Servo pump Also known as variable displacement pump. The reason for using a variable pump is to improve the [...] efficiency of a hydraulic system, in particular if the consumer frequently operates with low flow rates. Unlike a constant pump, the variable pump only supplies the necessary flow rate. This means no excess
