Operating point
Point on a characteristic curve or a performance map at which the related device is to be operated. During the linearisation of the transfer function for transfer elements , in particular with non-lin
Working lines
Main lines that are used to transport energy using hydraulic fluids.
Indicator
Device that displays the measured value for a physical variable without measuring it. Alternative: recording instrument
Non-contact seals
Sealing systems in which the two surfaces involved in the sealing process do not touch. Due to the remaining gap, non-contact seals can never seal completely. The most important representatives of non
Contact seals
Sealing systems in which the sealing gap between two sealing surfaces is sealed to a greater or lesser extent by a sealing element that touches both surfaces. The related deformation is applied by scr
Bursting pressure
Static pressure at which a pipe or pipe connection is destroyed such that hydraulic fluid escapes (DIN 24 312). This definition should also be applied to the filter bursting pressure for the filter ho
Bernoulli’s equation
Law for hydraulics. Equation defined by Daniel Bernoulli (1700—1782) in 1738 for the steady-state flow of incompressible fluids and gasses free of friction. Bernoulli’s equation is a fundamental law d
Calculated pressure
Pressure for which devices or systems are calculated under defined conditions to obtain functionality (see also DIN 2401, Part 1). The calculated pressure can be definitive for the operating pressure
Binary code
Is used to represent coded terms using only two characters, e.g. the binary codes O and L. In data processing systems it is only possible to process decimal numbers using the binary representation, i.
