control valves allow a hydraulic system to produce the type of __ and level of __ needed for machine operation

motion, force

controlling the flow rate of fluid entering an actuator controls the __ of that actuator

speed

the __ serves as the holder of all the working elements of the valve

valve body

list the three sources of external force that can be used to position control valve elements

electromagnetics, pilot, mechanical

what are the two sources of internal force typically used to postion control valve elements

spring, pilot

heavy internal springs are used to establish the operating pressure of the __ operated type of pressure control valve

direct

describe a hydraulic pressure fuse

a disk that bursts when the maximum pressure is exceeded

name two basic uses of springs in the operation of hydraulic control balves

maximum operating pressure, returning device to its original position

name the two types of pressure control valves that are used to prevent damage to hydraulic systems in cases where the system relief valve fails, causing excessive system pressure

hydraulic pressure fuse, shut off valve

counterbalance and brake valves provide __ control in hydraulic systems

restrained movement

safety valves are typically set at a pressure __% above the setting of the primary system relief valve

25

an unloading relief valve uses a __ mechanism to assist in the operation of the balancing piston in the pilot section of the valve

plunger

what are the four general classifications of directional control valves used in a hydraulic system

shut off, check, 3way, 4way

a pressure reducing valve is normally open and must be __ drained

externally

__ valves are used in hydraulic systems as both shut off and metering devices

needle

__ valves may be adjusted from the fully open position to the fully closed position by turning the control handle only 90 degrees

ball

__ directional control valves are designed for the actuation of rams and single acting cylinders

3way

a three way directional control valve has 3 ports. name what each port is connected to in the system

pump discharge, cylinder inlet, reservoir inlet

which type of four way valve allows cylinder extension in one position and cylinder retraction in the 2nd postion

2 postition

the middle position in a three position four way directional control valve is often called the __ position. it provides a control feature beyond cylinder extension and retraction

center

what are four general categories of actuation methods used to shift directional control valves

mechanical


electrical


pilot


manual

the __ method of directional control activation uses system pressure which may be remotely sensed, to shift the valve

pilot

__ are often used on the ends of the spool in directional control valves to automatically return the valve to the normal or restart position whenever the activation force is removed

springs

what are the 2 general operating designs of flow control valves

restricting


bypass

the __ is the simplest of the adjustable, noncompensated flow control valves

needle
