INTRODUCTION
In this course you we will provide you with with a greater working expertise and understanding of hydraulic power systems, and will get understanding of the various components found in a typical hydraulic system and how these components function and interact with each other.
Also you will learn about the major groups of hydraulic components, including the function and principles of operation of direct-and pilot-operated relief valves, pressure-reducing valves, directional-control valves, fixed- and variable-displacement pumps, and accumulators, the basic hydraulic circuits most often used in industrial hydraulic systems is covered. Hydraulic principles of mechanical maintenance, types of hydraulic fluids and their characteristics will be also covered. finally you will learn and recognize faults and damage to major components in hydraulic systems during inspection and to adjust control valves and test hydraulic circuits for correct and safe operation.
