Motor control (closed-loop)
Stroking of hydrostatic machines
Hydraulic half bridges
Where flow resistors ( orifice , throttle ) are used to control the movement of hydraulic motors and cylinders ( control with throttle ), this is based on the principle of connecting pressure dividers
Centring by springs
The valve control spools on three way valves are, with the exception of very large nominal diameters, placed in the centre position and maintained there by two springs as soon as the solenoid force or
Pressure switches
Devices that close or open electrical contacts in the event of pressure load (DIN ISO 1219-1). They are generally used if an electrical switching command or status signal should be issued when a set (
Laminar flow resistor
Flow resistor () with laminar flow, e.g. capillary gap. Has a largely linear flow rate pressure characteristic .
Control block (valve block)
Metal block, which houses several valves through incorporation or addition. The connections necessary for it to function are drilled into the block and are connected to the corresponding lines.
Operating parameters
Factors (boundary conditions) that affect the operational sequence and the function of systems and devices. These include the load curve, behaviour, installation conditions, operating conditions etc.
Locking cylinders
In hydraulic systems, locking is required primarily for safety aspects (aircraft landing gear, lifting platforms, etc). Additional equipment is also used, such as locking units ( Figure V 15 a ) or cl
Power characteristics graph
Graphic representation of a curve showing all the variables which influence the power delivered by a hydrostatic transmission (e.g. torque, efficiency, slip) in relation to another variable (e.g. rota
