What is a double acting cylinder |
A cylinder that exerts force in both directions |
|
Which seals are contained in the rod bushing |
Rod wiper seals and pressure seals |
|
What is caused by failed rod seals |
Dirt and air get into the system |
|
Which type of piston rings would you use if no creep could be tolerated? |
Synthetic |
|
State two reasons for using cast iron piston rings |
Higher temperatures Higher pressures |
|
Under what operating conditions would you use cylinder cushions |
When the load can force the piston to hit the end of the cylinder |
|
When would you require a cushion bypass |
If the cylinder is loaded as it begins its stroke |
|
When would you need a stop tube |
When the rod has a long extension with some side load |
|
Why is an ORB fitting preferable to a tapered thread fitting |
It causes less stress and distortion |
|
Should you normally install a cylinder with the ports at the top or at the bottom |
At the top |
|
Why is it important to align a cylinder with the load to which it is attached |
To avoid undue wear on the cylinder walls and on the seals |
|
What is the most costly result of leaks in a cylinder |
Dirt and air gets sucked into the system and damages components throughout the system |
|
If you rebuild a gear motor with new parts and you find that it turns freely by hand, what is the problem with the motor |
The gears and casing are fit too loosely |
|
Why should you check the return line filter and magnet (if a magnet is used) after you have run a new or rebuilt motor for the first time |
Metal is removed from the casing during break-in |
|
On which type of gear motor must you set the timing |
The orbiting gear motor |
|
Should you be able to slide the rotor and rollers together easily on a roller vane gerotor or should they be difficult to assemble |
Very difficult to assemble |
|
Which additional parts are found in vane motors that are not normally found in vane pumps |
Springs under the vanes |
|
List two ways that the swash plate angle affects the performance of an in-line axial piston motor |
Speed Torque |
|
When you change a valve assembly on a radial piston motor, why must you mark the position of the drive coupling on the motor and on the valve as soon as you remove the old valve |
To ensure that the valve is correctly timed |
|
How can you change the displacement of a cam-type radial piston motor |
Change the cam ring for one of a different size |
|
Which type of cylinder is used in a hydraulic jack |
A ram |
|
What dangerous condition can develop if you shut off the cushion valve at the rod end of a cylinder that has a load pulling on it? |
Pressure intensification can occur |
|
How can you detect an internal leak in a cylinder |
By hot spots |
|
why is it best to install a cylinder with the ports at the top |
This allows you to bleed the air out after installation |
|
what two things should you look for to be sure that you have received a motor and not a pump by mistake |
Motor designation on the nameplate M prefix in the model number |
|
What happens if you try to start up a vane motor without the springs in it |
Fluid bypasses the vane tips and the rotor would not turn |
|
What happens if you do not time a piston motor correctly |
It runs in reverse |
|
If the supply is normal to a radial piston motor, but it runs slower than normal, what should you check first |
The condition of the valve |
|
What is the operating principle of any hydraulic motor |
Fluid pushes on vanes, gear teeth or pistons to turn the drive shaft |
|
Which three types of motors are used for low speed and high torque |
Radial piston Cam-type piston Roller vane gerotor |
|
Which type of motor can only turn part of a rotation |
A limited rotation motor |
|
Which type of limited rotation motor can be used for clamping |
Cylinder with bell crank |
|
Which three specifications determine the torque in a motor |
Inlet pressure Surface area of the motor elements The radius of the rotation |
|
What does a decrease in mechanical efficiency indicate |
An increase in internal friction |
|
What does a decrease in volumetric efficiency indicate |
Internal leakage |
|
On which two factors does motor speed depend |
Displacement Flow rate |
