Types

Hydraulics Valves
Direction control Valves
1. Flow control -- controls amount of flow
a) Restrict flow -- Usually non-compensated-- Compensated
valves do not adjust for pressure changes
a) Needle (non-compensated)
b) Gate (non-compensated)
b) Divert flow -- usually compensated

2. Flow dividers – direct flow to two or more circuits

Valve Operators
Hydraulics Valves
Direction control Valves

• Different actuators for directional-control valves are.

Mechanical or manual (many different ways to manually operate a

valve).
• Pilot – makes use of low volume system pressure
• Electrical or Electronic
• A combination of the above

Hydraulics Hoses and
Connectors

 Hydraulics Hoses
• The components such as pipes, tubes, and hoses that

convey fluids throughout a hydraulic system.

• A type of hydraulic fluid conductor that joins other

components usually in a non-linear fashion.

• Hose bends and flexes are the most versatile hydraulic

conductor.

 Basic elements of Hydraulic system
a) Oil storage Tank or Oil Reservoir

b) Oil conditioning elements such as filter, heat exchanger, heater and

strainer

c) Pump to pressurized oil

d) Fluid control elements such as Direction control valve, Flow control valve,
pressure relief valve, Check valve etc.

e) Actuator – Reciprocating , Rotary

f) Fluid or Oil conducting elements such as pipe lines, connector, hoses etc.

Meter in Hydraulic Circuit
Application of Meter in Circuit
a) This circuit is used where finer speed control is required
b) When load is need to move.
c) This circuit is suitable for resisting load actuated by the cylinder

Advantages of Meter in Circuit Disadvantages of Meter in Circuit

a) Gives best results when used in
higher pressure system
b) Relative small friction to face by
piston
c) Suitable for very low piston rod
speed
a) Not suitable for low pressure system
b) We are placing flow control valve in
pressure line. In this valve throttling of
fluid take place which heats the oil and hot
oil is admitted into the cylinder
c) Where is pressure on one side of piston
rod is not held firmly in position.
