I store the hydraulic fluid used by the system
Reservoir / Tank
I allow hydraulic fluid to flow in one direction but prevent it from flowing backward.
Check Valve
I am the movement of hydraulic fluid through a circuit
Flow
I convert hydraulic energy into straight-line mechanical motion.
Cylinder
I allow hydraulic hoses to be connected and disconnected quickly.
Quick Connect Fitting
: I move hydraulic fluid through the hydraulic system.
Pump
I control the amount or rate of hydraulic fluid moving through a circuit.
Flow Control Valve
I am force acting on a specific area.
Pressure
I am the rod connected to the piston that moves in and out of the cylinder.
Piston Rod
I am dirt or unwanted material in hydraulic oil that can damage components.
Contamination
I remove contamination from hydraulic fluid.
Filter
I determine which direction hydraulic oil flows and therefore which direction an actuator moves.
Directional Control Valve
I am an English unit of pressure meaning pounds per square inch.
PSI
I am the internal part of a cylinder that moves when hydraulic pressure acts on me.
Piston
I am an area where moving parts could trap or crush fingers or other body parts.
Pinch Point
I have several connected ports and can distribute or collect hydraulic fluid.
Manifold
I maintain a lower pressure in one portion of a hydraulic circuit.
Pressure control valve
A reduction in pressure as fluid moves through a component or restriction.
Pressure Drop
I am a serious injury caused when high-pressure hydraulic fluid penetrates the skin.
Double acting Cylinder
I am a serious injury caused when high-pressure hydraulic fluid penetrates the skin
Fluid Injection Injury
I include the motor, pump, reservoir, relief valve, and filter and supply hydraulic oil to the trainer circuit.
Power Unit
I protect the hydraulic system by limiting its maximum pressure.
Relief Valve
I am a reduction in pressure that occurs as hydraulic fluid travels through a component or restriction.
Pressure Drop
I am the end of a hydraulic cylinder opposite the piston rod.
Cap End
I am the line that carries hydraulic oil from the circuit back toward the reservoir.
