Manual mode
Operating mode whereby a machine is controlled using manually operated valves. These days, the only area where manual operation is still predominant is mobile hydraulics . In addition, the term manual
Seal
Specific type of seal, e.g. roof-shaped seal , u-shaped seal.
Pressure gauge
Device for measuring pressure levels in fluid media. They may function directly (e.g. vertical column pressure gauge ) or indirectly, whereby elastic deflections, for example, are used to record the p
Pressure gauge selection switch
Pressure gauge selection switches are used to connect various pressure measuring points to a pressure gauge, assuming this is the preferred option. The pressure gauge may be installed in either the se
Gauge protection valve
A device installed in the pipe to a pressure gauge which separates the pressure gauge from the pressure associated with the medium as soon as this exceeds a specified limit.
Magnetic filter
Filter with a permanent magnetic element for retaining ferromagnetic particles. Magnetic filters are often combined with fleece or screen filters and thereby increase the amount of contamination they
Air consumption
Specified in dm3/min or in dm3 per working cycle for a cylinder (motor) or an entire system. All air volumes specified have been converted to the standard state for air (CETOP RP 100).
Sound in air
Sounds in air or gases are due to small changes in pressure in terms of time and space ( pressure waves ) caused by disruptions in pressure and are superimposed on the static pressure. They are propag
Air in oil
1. Providing the air is dissolved in the oil, it will not affect its characteristics. 2. Undissolved air, i.e. bubbles, cause the following: signs of corrosion on pumps and controls, increased compres
