Locked cylinder using pilot check valves Fail-Safe Circuit
 Fail-safe circuits are basically designed to prevent injury to the
operator or damage to the equipment. In general they prevent any
accidental fall or overloading of the equipment.
 Prevent Cylinder from accidentally falling on an operator in the
event of:
 Hydraulic line ruptures
 Person inadvertently operates manual override on pilot-operated DCV
when pump is not operating.

Fail – Safe vs Fail-Secure Hydraulic Circuit for Shaper

 Fail-safe will unlock during a failure (Lift Doors/Emergency
exits/Dam Flood Gates)

 Fail-secure lock will remain locked during a failure (Bank Locker

Doors/Dam Shutters/Luggage carts/Shopping Carts/Air brakes).

Cross over pressure relief valve
• Dual cross relief valve is made up of
two pressure relief valves with
crossed tank.
• Used to limit pressure to a certain
setting in the two ports of an
actuator or hydraulic motor.
• Ideal to provide protection against
sudden shock pressures as well as to
adjust different pressures in the two
ports of a hydraulic circuit.

Hydraulic Motor Braking System Three important considerations in designing a hydraulic circuit:
1. Safety of machine and personnel in the event of power failures.
2. Performance of given operation with minimum losses.
3. Cost of the component used in the circuit.
