Switching methods (electric)
In the case of the electrical activation of continuously adjustable valves , a distinction is made between two different switching types: Passive switching : The electrical input signal is directly fe
Null bias adjustment
Measurements at a sensor or valve whereby the measured variable zero and the output signal zero do not match up as a result of manufacturing tolerances. The type of measurement is dependent on the dev
Disturbance location
Entry point of a variable not influenced by the system on the action path, which disturbs the state required according to the task ( Disturbance variable ) (DIN 19 226).
End position damping
Feature used to reduce the speed of a piston before the end of its stroke. The damping can be mechanical or using a fluid; a choice can be made between fixed or adjustable ( Damping of cylinder motion
Directional valve
Directional valves affect the start/stop and flow direction of the hydraulic fluid, and thereby control the movement of the actuators in a hydraulic system. Their function is to direct the flow of hyd
Correcting variable
Output variable of the controller or and also the input variable of the subsystem. It transfers the controlling effect of the device to the subsystem (DIN 19 226).
Gap filter
Filter consisting of a set of fine metal discs with a defined distance and which also determines the maximum filtration grade (Figure M 23). The gap filter is one of the surface filters , i.e. it has
Hydraulic cylinder
Cylinder designed to be used with hydraulic fluids at generally higher pressures (of around 100 bar and above). Given the relatively low compressibility of the fluid and the low weight of a piston, hy
