WHY511 - Basic Hydraulics (1 CPD Point)

This webinar will teach you the basic concepts and principles of hydraulic technology.

Practical exercises will be performed by each participant on his/her own pc/laptop using our award-winning FluidSIM software, while interacting with our experienced facilitators.

Content, outcomes and exercises are based on the Basic Hydraulic face-to-face training.

Target group:

Personnel dealing with hydraulic systems in their working environment.

This format of training is ideal for first-time users of the technology, refresher courses, preparation for face-to-face training courses and group trainings.

The remote/online platform makes training possible for those who are not able to attend face-to-face training courses.

In-house custom webinars are also available on request.

The content includes:

Standards for equipment and circuit diagram representation
Design and function of hydraulic power supply systems.
Physical principles.
Measurement of volumetric flow rate, pressure and temperature as an aid to troubleshooting.
Hardware technology and characteristic data for valves and actuators.
Reading and interpreting basic hydraulic circuit diagrams for direction, speed, pressure and position.
Basic principles of systematic troubleshooting.

Outcomes:

After completing this course, the participant will be able to:

Name the essential hydraulic components and their symbols.
Explain the physical principles of hydraulics and use them for troubleshooting.
Measure the volumetric flow, pressure and temperature in a hydraulic system and what the values mean for evaluation of the system.
Design, assemble and test basic hydraulic circuits on FluidSIM software.
Understand, read, and interpret circuit diagrams.
Interpret the characteristics of data of valves and drive elements.

Duration:
The webinar will take place from 8:00 - 10:00 CAT Monday - Friday (unless otherwise specified).

Attendance of all the sessions is compulsory.

Assessment and Certification:

An assignment is to be completed at the end of the course after which participants will receive a Festo certificate of "Successfully completing the Basic Hydraulic Webinar", based on the participant's level of understanding and practical application of the submitted assignments.
