Starting performance of hydraulic motors
Behaviour of a hydraulic motor on transition from standstill to motion. Due to its design and the related friction and leakage losses, during starting a motor outputs a significantly lower useful torq
control parameters
Setting values of the controller, which can be used to adapt the controller properties to the conditions of the controlled subsystem, and the quality requirements of the .
Viscosity/temperature characteristic
The viscosity of a Newtonian fluid changes as a factor of the temperature: For hydraulic fluids it decreases rapidly as the temperature rises and at low temperatures it approaches the pour point ( Fig
Step function
Function, which changes its value by a predetermined value suddenly at a defined time t. The change of the caused by this is called the . A step function is used, for example to determine the of a con
Control variable
The variable in the controlled subsystem, which is calculated for the purposes of and is supplied via the measuring device of the . It is the output variable of the system and, together with the refer
Measuring
Determining the measured value of a physical variable — the measured variable — by means of an indirect or direct comparison with a known reference variable. Measuring requires a master reference elem
Hydraulic seals
Components whose job it is to seal areas under pressure in such a way that pressure levels are maintained. These are contact seals that may also be used at high pressures levels. The materials used fo
Overrun
Path travelled by a working element (e.g. cylinder ) between the turn-off pulse from the directional valve and the end of the movement. The overrun primarily depends on the masses moved and their velo
Switch-off pressure
Pressure at which a device or an installation is switched off (DIN 24 312).
Mounting dimensions (hole patterns)
To facilitate the interchangeability of valves from different manufacturers, port hole patterns are internationally standardised, i.e. the arrangement of the outlet bores on a valve that must match th
