Components in Hydraulic System
7
6.Hydraulic Hoses and Tubing: These components transport hydraulic
fluid between different parts of the system. They must be properly sized
and rated for the system’s pressure and temperature requirements.

Advantage and disadvantage of Hydraulic System :-
Advantages:-
1. High Power Density: Hydraulic systems can generate high forces and
torques relative to their size and weight, making them ideal for
applications requiring significant power in compact spaces.
2. Precise Control: Hydraulic systems offer precise control over speed,
force, and position, making them suitable for applications requiring
accurate movement, such as industrial robots and aircraft control
surfaces.
3. Versatility: Hydraulic systems can operate in a wide range of
temperatures and environments, including underwater and in
hazardous conditions, making them versatile for various applications.
4. Overload Protection: Hydraulic systems can withstand overloads
without damage, as excess pressure simply bypasses the system,
providing inherent overload protection.
5. Constant Force and Torque: Hydraulic systems maintain constant
force or torque throughout the stroke or rotation, ensuring consistent
performance even under varying loads.

Disadvantage:-
1. Complexity: Hydraulic systems can be complex, requiring precise
engineering and maintenance to ensure proper operation. The
system’s components, including pumps, valves, and actuators, must
be carefully selected and integrated.
2. Fluid Leakage: Hydraulic systems are prone to fluid leakage, which
can lead to environmental contamination and require regular
maintenance to address. Seals and connections must be monitored and
replaced as needed to prevent leaks.
3. Temperature Sensitivity: Hydraulic fluid viscosity changes with
temperature, affecting system performance. Extreme temperatures can
cause fluid thinning or thickening, impacting system efficiency and
reliability.
4. Potential for Fluid Contamination: Hydraulic systems are susceptible
to contamination from particles, water, and air, which can degrade
system performance and lead to component wear or failure. Proper
filtration and fluid maintenance are essential to prevent
contamination.
5. Maintenance Requirements: Hydraulic systems require regular
maintenance, including fluid checks, filter replacements, and seal
inspections, to ensure optimal performance and longevity. Failure to
maintain the system can lead to costly repairs and downtime.
