Abstract

To get the hydraulic energy generated by the hydraulic pump to the actuator, cylinder or hydraulic motor in a controlled way, more than just pipe work is needed. We call this the conductive part of hydraulic drive system. In this chapter we will discuss the most important basic functions of the functional valves that are applied for this purpose. Detailed information about the valves is available from the often very detailed specification and documentation of the different manufacturers.
