Elastic materials
Most important material group for seals . Due to their elastic properties they can change shape on installation, adapt to deviations in the geometric shape of the surface to be sealed and make possibl
Amplitude response
The amplitude response is the magnitude |F (jω)|. The two lines represent in mathematics the magnitude of the frequency response as a function of the circular frequency. Graphically the magnitude of t
Control flow rate
In general : Flow rate to supply the hydraulic actuation of devices. With continuously adjustable valves : A distinction is made between the resting value of the control flow rate as its value in a st
Diagnostic systems
Special form of expert system that is designed to cover all realistically possible errors and that is capable of preparing a cause-effect analysis to suit the requirements and criteria of the user. Di
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
Set pressure pe
General : Pressure set on a device (DIN 24 312). On pressure-limiting and safety valves (DIN 3320): set pressure p e is the pressure at which in test stand conditions (atmospheric back pressure), dire
Top pressure limit
1. Top limit for any temporary exceeding of the calculated pressure where a device or system will still be functional (DIN 24 312). 2. Pressure ranges above around 800 bar are referred to as the top p
