The X port of a pilot operated direction control valve: is the extemal pilot port controls the amount of pilot flow controls the speed of the pilot spool is the internal pilot port aogk 2, Pressure override in a pressure control valve is caused by: _ae the compression of a spring and is affected by amount of flow b. flow forces acting on spool lands within the valve c. the weight of the spool within the valve d. setting the pressure of valve higher than rated values 3. When a relief valve is vented: the system pressure drops to minimum. the valve will close and limit pressure to 1000 psi the pump flow drops to zero pump output flow is blocked and diverted to charge accumulators - eesP 4. An unloading valve is used in a double-pump high-low system: to dump the flow from the higher displacement volume pump to tank when its setting is reached to dump the flow from both pumps to tank as when certain pressure is reached to dump the flow from the higher pressure pump to tank when its setting is reached to dump the flow from the lower displacement volume pump to tank when its setting is reached peged 5. Which of the following flow control methods may cause pressure intensification: a, meter-out b. meter-in c. bleed-off 4. bypass 6. ‘Valve size 6 means: a. its port diameter equals 6 mm . its port diameter equals 6 in D. ithas 6 ports 4. itis pilot operated valve 6 marks — Question IL: Answer the following questions VERY BRIEFLY .taisty Explain why the center position in the pilot stage of the pilot operated DCV cannot be closed center. ‘When should the pilot-operated relief valves be used instead of the direct acting relief valves? Draw the reat a the following direct acting pressure control valves showing whether the valve is{internally or externally{ drained and intemally or ext Iso, write the name of the fiydraulic components connected to the inlet and outlet ports of the valve. - Relief Valve. - Unloaded Valve. ~ Sequence Valve. = Counterbalance Valve. :plain very briefly what will happen if the sequence valve is internally drained. 14Question HII: i. Whatis the type of the valve shown in the figure? Draw its symbol and describe how it works i. What is main advantage of the Proportional valves over the Solenoid-valves?@———_ il, __Whatare the Sour types of valve mountings inthe hydraulic cixeuits? = nse pole A double acting press has a cylinder diameter of 140 mm, 100 mm diameter rod, a stroke of 275 ‘mm of which 250 mm is to close the dies onto the work piece at a load of 25 KN. The final 25-mm_ stroke is to be at a load of 250 KN. The press is to produce 60 components per hour. The side cylinder diameter is 40 mm. The breakdown of the required maximum operating time is: Rapid approach 250 mm = 5 seconds Pressing over final 25 mm = 10 seconds Cure time (Le. hold under full thrust) =15 seconds Return time = 10 seconds Unload and reload press (at least) = 20 seconds ‘The speed of the available motor is 1000 rpm. The only times which are absolutely fixed are the cure and the pressing times. A fixed output pump and overhiead tank are used as shown in the figure. Deseribe the operation of the Hydraulic Circuit VERY BRIERLY. Can you use a pilot-operated Check valve instead of the prefill valve? Explain you answer. Calculate pump discharge and power. @\) © iv. Calculate the system efficie v, Find the pressure eae rare control valves. vi, Calculate the power ost in the relief and the corresponding temperature rise during the Cure tie (Assume the specific heat is 21 kiike C aa the peciio gravity 0.9). vii, Draw the p-t, O-t, and power-t diagrams. 24 Bins lg 2: Clay tindTank above cylinders 3/4 Bia gpilgtgd 2: Hay ZIQuestion V: i, Write the name and the function of each components of the shown hydraulic Circuits ii, Redraw the electrical circuits with the name of each component on it. est Q ali (us| als.
