What is the wire screen called in a non-pressurized reservoir?
Finger screen.

They have an integral compensator
What happens as the drive shaft rotates on a Stratopower pump?
The pistons move back and forth, and the cylinder block is stationary
In the Stratopower variable-volume pump, the pistons are held in contact with the cam plate by the
nutating plate.
What should be done in order to change the direction of rotation of a hydraulic motor?
Change the direction of fluid-flow into the motor
What principle does a filter assembly with a differential pressure indicator operate?
The difference between pressure entering the element and pressure leaving the element
Hydraulic manifolds are used in a hydraulic system to provide a location where
common fluid lines can come together.
What should you do to ensure an automatic check valve is installed properly?
Make sure that the arrow marked on the valve housing is pointing in the direction of free-flow.
A balanced outlet relief valve does what?
eliminates the effective area that back pressure can act upon
A manual poppet-type selector valve is in a working position when the camshaft is rotated to
unseat one pressure poppet and one return poppet.
In the poppet-type solenoid-operated selector valve, the poppets are attached to the solenoids by a
plunger
What type of actuator has the characteristic of ―the travel of the piston will slow down when the piston nears either end of the cylinder?
Internal snubber
How is the selector valve in a nonautomatic hydraulic actuating system controlled?
Manually by the operator
In an electrical follow-up system, the follow-up action will catch up and neutralize the servo valve when the
input and follow-up transducers send the same signal to the amplifier.
Which type of orifice allows normal speed of operation in one direction, but limits speed in the other?
Check valve.
Hydraulic flow regulators regulate fluid-flow
in one direction only
A unit that can hydraulically synchronize the movement of two actuators is a
flow equalizer
If fluid does not split evenly in the flow equalizer, a
free floating piston shifts position
If we needed to lower system pressure to a subsystem to prevent an actuator from overloading the airframe, what kind of hydraulic valve would be needed?
Pressure reducer
What is the purpose of installing sequence valves in a hydraulic system?
So one operation is performed before the rest of the system can operate.
What is the minimum amount of time you should perform each leakage test on a swivel joint?
2 minutes
In an emergency, the engine-driven hydraulic pump shutoff valves may be operated by
pulling the T-handles
Refer to foldout 1. If the #3 engine T-handle is pulled and the firewall shutoff valve closes, but the hydraulic shutoff valve does not close, which component would you suspect of being faulty?
The hydraulic shutoff valve.
When the pump low-pressure warning light comes on while the engines are running and the pressure reading on the accumulator pressure gauge reads low, the first component that should be suspected of having a malfunction is the
engine-driven pump
With the engines shutdown, one of the engine pumps low-pressure warning lights fails to come on, what would be the first thing you should check?
Press-to-test feature of the warning light
When filling a system reservoir, you must observe the fluid level, because overfilling may cause the reservoir to
rupture
When bleeding a power system, how much additional fluid should you bleed out after air bubbles are no longer evident?
One quart.
When taking fluid samples on a hydraulic system without bleeder ports, you should
open line connections to take the sample
If a hydraulic system is found to be contaminated, where should you begin draining the affected system?
Reservoir
When accomplishing a piston seizure test on a hydraulic accumulator, hydraulic pressure should not exceed
50 pounds per square inch gauge (psig).
Which test should you perform to determine if the accumulator piston seals are leaking or bypassing?
An internal leakage test
When performing an internal leakage test, what is indicated by air bubbles coming out of the accumulator end cap?
The piston is leaking.
The purpose of the fluid quantity system test is to test the
indication system.
During extension and retraction, what unit slows the landing gear as it approaches the DOWN AND LOCKED and the UP AND LOCKED positions?
Spring-loaded sliding valve snubbing assembly.
What valve prevents door operation while the main gears are in transit?
Shutoff
Refer to foldout 3 for the following question. During a landing gear operational check, the main and nose gear fail to retract. You’ve determined that hydraulic pressure is available to the selector valve. What valve in the landing gear system would be the probable cause?
Selector
Refer to foldout 4 for the following question. During an operational check of the landing gear system, the nose gear fails to extend, but the doors open. Further investigation reveals that the nose gear actuator has no pressure to it. What would be the probable cause?
Nose-gear sequence valve
When troubleshooting a hydraulic malfunction, what is the first thing you should know?
What is the full discrepancy?
While disassembling a selector valve, you notice an "X" marked on the sleeve of the shuttle and sleeve assembly. Why is the sleeve marked in this manner?
Shows the proper position of matched parts.
Nose wheel steering shimmy dampening is effective when the valve plunger is in
neutral
How would a main-gear wheel brake dragging affect nosewheel steering?
It would tend to pull the aircraft to that side.
During landing-gear retraction, what unit applies the brakes to stop wheel spin?
Automatic brake actuator.
In the event a brake line ruptures and the hydraulic fuse sets, how much hydraulic fluid (in cubic inches) will be lost?
40 (+10/–0).
After receiving a write-up for dragging brakes, you have checked the brake adjustment and found it to be correct. The next logical step in troubleshooting the problem is to check the?
return pressure
During a postflight debriefing, the pilot reports that the antiskid is completely inoperative. Upon inspection you find that the antiskid switch is ON, and all circuit breakers are engaged. What would be the next component to be checked?
Antiskid control box
During the testing of a brake assembly, you reduce the pressure to 75 pounds per square inch (psi), what are you simulating?
Back pressure
What component improves stick feel characteristics and reduces undesirable structural coupling oscillations?
Roll damper
What flight control surface is used to augment the ailerons to achieve the roll rate commanded either by the pilot or copilot?
Spoiler
What component ensures that aerodynamic loads push the spoiler panel to the retract position in the event of hydraulic system failure?
Electro-hydraulic servo valve (EHSV).
During a preflight check the pilot noted that he had no roll input in the mechanical mode, what is the first thing that the hydraulic technician should do?
