NO FIGURE DESCRIPTION
Check valve

Allows fluid to flow in one

direction, in this case from
(a)
bottom to top.

4/3-way valve manually

These valves have four or five
pipe connections, commonly
called ports. One pressure
inlet, two cylinder ports
providing pressure to the
(b) double acting cylinder or
actuator and one or two outlets
to exhaust pressure from the
cylinders.

Butterfly valve

Butterfly valves are used for

applications when a short
(c)
layout length is desirable and
the valve is not used for
precise flow regulation.
 Pressure relief valve

Are quick-opening, quick-

closing valves used to protect
(d
equipment from gas pressure
&e)
build up or pressure surges.

Pump
To move liquid by pressure or
suction. Hydraulic pumps are
used to transfer energy and are
(f) powered by an energy source
that initializes the pump but
has no part in the pumping
action itself.

Motor

Hydraulic motors convert

hydraulic energy into
mechanical energy. A pump is
connected via a carrier line to
a motor, which then draws
fluid from a reservoir and
forces it into the motor. The
fluid forces the movable
(g) components of the motor into
motion, which in turn rotates
the attached shaft. The shaft,
which is mechanically linked
to the work load, provides
rotary mechanical motion.
 Cylinder

Retract or extend to ensure

that the fluid flow with the right
system.

Procedure

1. The schematic hydraulic circuit was studied and understood.

2. The hydraulic components that were involved in this experiment were recognized and
familiarized through their symbol labels.
3. The circuit is assembled based on the schematic diagram given.
4. The push button is pressed to check whether the cylinder piston extract and retract as
intended.
5. Observations and results were obtained.
