Part 2: True or False
paPart 3: Match component of the basic hydraulic system to its function
Component Function
---- (1) Reservoir (A) A mechanical device that converts mechanical power
into hydraulic energy, to generate hydraulic pressure.
---- (2) Pump (B) A one – way valve that normally allows fluid (liquid
or gas) to flow through it in one direction only.
---- (3) Linear actuator (C) A container for holding the fluid required to supply the
system
---- (4) Selector valve (D) Creates motion in a straight line.
---- (5) Non-return valve (E) A directional control device that ensures the
movement of the hydraulic fluid flow in the proper
direction.
1) Hydraulic system uses compressed air to transfer power
a. True b. False
2) Pascal law states: Pressure in an enclosed container is transmitted equally
a. True b. False
3) Good lubrication properties is not an essential property for hydraulic fluids
a. True b. False
4) Vegetable-based fluid is inflammable
a. True b. False
5) Non-return valve is a two-way valve
a. True b. False
6) Accumulator stores energy in the form of hydraulic pressure
a. True b. False
