CHAPTER 4: ISO Symbols

A family of graphic symbols has been developed to represent fluid power components and
systems on schematic drawings. In the United States, the American National Standards
Institute (ANSI) is responsible for symbol information. The Institute controls the makeup of symbols and makes changes or additions as required. The International Standards
Organization (ISO) has the same control over symbols used internationally. Both systems
have almost the same format (especially since ANSI changed its symbols in 1966 to
eliminate all written information).
Standard symbols allow fluid power schematic diagrams to be read and understood by
persons in many different countries, even when they don't speak the same language.
Either symbol set (ANSI or ISO) may be -- and is -- used in the United States. However,
many companies today use the ISO symbols as their standard for work with foreign
suppliers and customers.

Hot Topics
The following pages go through all standard ISO symbol information as it applies to
hydraulic and pneumatic schematics. There are still many plants that modify the
standards to suit some individual's taste. This widespread practice may be confusing to
novices. Symbols have been developed to represent most of the available fluid power
components. However, some parts must be made up of combinations of different symbols
to show how they function. Other times there is no standard symbol and one must be
made up. In such cases, look first in the supplier's catalog for the symbol they show. If the
supplier did not make a symbol, the only other option is design one for the new part. Try
to design the new symbol using standard practices shown here.

As the phrase fluid power implies, these symbols cover both hydraulic and pneumatic
components. Any exceptions are noted.
