Hydraulic pressure oil system required for operation of servomotors consists of following.

 High pressure oil pumps

 Pressure oil tanks
 Air compressor
 Sump tanks
 Piping
A typical oil pump system includes oil relief valves, gauges, valves, monitoring devices etc. for normal
operation.

Oil Pump
 The purpose;
 The pumping speed of each motor;
 The type of oil pumps used;
 The reason why two pumps are used?
 The monitoring devices; the cut in/cut out? Switches
 The gauges
Pressure tanks
 The purpose
 The quantity of oil;
 The ratio of Air/oil in the pressure tanks and how it affects the oil levels
 The monitoring devices; oil levels (low, normal, high) switches
 The oil filtration system of the plant
Air Compressors
 These are provided to supply air and maintaining automatically the required pneumatic cushion in the
governor pressure oil tank.
 The number of air compressors;
 The purpose;
 The different type of compressors used? And purpose
 The different types of air compressor tanks in the station
 Air filtration system
Sump tank
 The total capacity of the tank;
 Does it require cooling or heating system to usable oil temperature range for normal governor
operation? Level switches high/low.
Governor Piping
 The different type of piping?
 The different type of piping size; the minimum/maximum allowable oil velocity
 The oil filters; duplex filter
