Durchflussverteilung (Flow Sharing)
electronics, this is called " Electronic Flow Sharing ". The flow rate distribution ensures a continuous fluid supply to the hydraulic consumers independent of the pump capacity. With the help of pressure compensation [...] undersupplied by the pump. Each valve section has its maximum flow rate. Without flow distribution, the fluid will choose the path of least resistance if the pump cannot provide the required flow. This can result
Hydraulic power pack
accordance with the size of the consumers and thus the overall need for fluid in the hydraulic system. The warming of the fluid, as well as potential leakages must be taken into consideration here. The [...] hydraulic power pack is a stand-alone assembly consisting of a drive motor, hydraulic pump and hydraulic fluid tank. The drive motor is connected to the hydraulic pump via a shaft and drives this. The motor and
Pressure loss
loss is the most important source of loss in hydraulic systems. It arises due to the of the pressure fluid in the pipes and the devices, and also due to mechanical friction losses (e.g. in guides or at seals)
Flow rate measurement procedure
the dynamic pressure principle (dynamic pressure probe) and the variable area principle are used in fluid technology . They work indirectly and can be very small. Procedures for measuring the duration with
Electric-hydraulic analogy
The understanding of some processes in fluid technology is improved if use is made of the analogies that exist between electrical and hydraulic laws. Given specific boundary conditions, it is possible
Cleanliness level
Characterises the number of particles present in hydraulic fluid . Purity classes are stated either in filter classes according to NAS 1638 — which specifies the permitted particle numbers in five particle
Automatic sealing
that radial forces, the so-called preload , are produced that make it impossible for the hydraulic fluid to flow around the seal even in the unpressurised state. With increasing pressure increasingly large
Differential cylinder
the piston area AK to the annular area on the piston rod side is essential for the function of the fluid-related circuit (CETOP RP100). Differential cylinders apply predominantly compressive forces in the
Flow rate
Volume of fluid which flows through a cross-section in one time unit. In hydraulics the flow rate is generally stated in litres per minute (lpm). For example, filling a 10 litre water bucket at the tap
Valve actuation
For fluid valves there are a number of actuation types: Manual actuation: Actuation using a hand or foot (including manual override). Mechanical actuation using levers, plungers and/or rollers and springs
