Cavitation
Cavitation refers to the formation of cavities in fluids. Cavities start to from when the local static pressure within a fluid falls below a critical value. This critical value is generally about as h
Inductive pressure sensors
1. "Genuine" inductive pressure sensors operate in accordance with the principle of inductive position measurement whereby the core of the coil is connected to a diaphragm whose deflection it measures
Transition piece
Part with internal and external thread to connect two with different diameters.
Open loop
"Open loop"; because the term "control" applies to both ordinary controls and , the words "open loop" is added to designate an ordinary control (not involving feedback). Opposite: closed loop .
Sampling error
Error that arises if continuously changing variables are measured by digital means because the measured values can only be measured at specific times due to the finite time required for the A/D conver
Single acting cylinder
Cylinder in which the fluid pressure for the forward stroke only acts in one and the same direction ( ISO 1219-1 ). The piston can be returned by a spring, the inherent weight of the piston or externa
Adaptive controller
Controller that automatically adapts to a changing controlled system. It is intended to ensure constant dynamic performance with a changing controlled system. For this purpose the microcomputer requir
Tank
Vessel for collecting and to some extent conditioning hydraulic fluid (removal of contamination and air, quietening). Is used at the same time to remove dissipated heat , however it is only suitable f
Losses in displacement machines
Losses in hydrostatic displacement machines are comprised of the leakage losses in the displacement elements and the control surfaces (summarised in the volumetric efficiency η Vol) and moment losses,
Special cylinder
Hydraulic cylinders which have been designed for defined applications, where neither standard cylinders nor series-production cylinders can be used. This includes, for example, press cylinders or cyli
