Course description
Introduction to Hydraulic Circuits and Components
This introductory course give you a good working knowledge of hydraulic circuits and components. You'll explore their principles of operation, their performance characteristics, and standard ISO symbol representation.
During the course, you'll learn how to draw circuit diagram and design simple circuits for linear actuators, hydrostatic transmissions and velocity control. We'll introduce you to the characteristics of hydraulic fluids, the need for contamination control and the functions of auxiliary devices such as accumulators and coolers. Tutorials and laboratory work strengthen your understanding of how to apply your theoretical knowledge in practice.
