Brief description of Hydraulic power pack, basic parts of it and affecting parameters for the same, it is used in many industrial applications and in some heavy civil applications
2. What is Hydraulic Power pack?
Converts electrical
energy into hydraulic
drive power
Electric pump, filters,
reservoir, valves, and
pressure relief
Power pack in
Aircraft
5. Design…
1. Power supply Plug.
2. ON/OFF Switch.
3. Pressure port.
4. Pressure relief valve.
5. Tank connection.
6. Pressure gauge.
7. Tank connection for reservoir.
8. Drain screw.
9. Tank.
10. Sight glass for level indicator.
11. Flange.
12. Capacitor.
13. Electric motor.
6. Hydraulic reservoir …
The reservoir is a tank in
which an adequate
supply of fluid for the
system is stored.
Types.
Functions .
7. Functions ….
Used to pick up smaller
contaminant particles
because they are able to
accumulate them better
than a strainer.
A coarse filter
Is constructed of a fine
wire mesh screen or of
screening consisting of a
specially processed wire
of varying thickness
wrapped around metal
frames.
Filters Strainers
8. Functions… Hydraulic pumps
The combined pumping
and driving motor unit is
known as hydraulic
pump
Types
Factors affecting
selection of pump :
Pressure, flow,
Efficiency,
P/W ratio, cost
10. Function… Pressure gauge
Measure the internal
pressure and/or vacuum
of a vessel or system
PSI (Pounds per Square
Inch)
BAR
PA (Pascal)
In Hg (Inches of
Mercury)
In H2O (Inches of Water)
11. Function… Heat exchanger
Heat exchangers in their
hydraulic power supply
system to cool the
hydraulic fluid from the
hydraulic pumps.
Viscosity
Cavitations, wear,
leakage
Water
12. Functions… Electric motor
Types :
• DC motor
• AC motor
Selection
Calculating pressure
requirement at pump
outlet.
Mounting
13. Function…Hoses and pipes
A flexible
connections
They suppress
noise and vibration.
manufactured in
layers of
elastromers , and
braided cloth or wire
Installation
Installation of Hydraulic hose (Rules)
14. Trouble shooting…
SYMPTOM OR PROBLEM
Motor not running
Start solenoid just clicks, motor not turning
Motor runs, but unit will not build hydraulic
pressure
Excessive heat from unit
15. Conclusion
By employing a Hydraulic system, the
advantage over Mechanical and Electrical
systems are: Possibility of automation of all
types of movements. Speeds, forces can be
easily and infinitely controlled by using
cylinders, and linear movements can be
carried out without the use of Mechanical
components
