Pumps and Compressors: Lines

The document defines common symbols used in hydraulic and pneumatic schematic diagrams. It includes lines, shapes, and diagrams to represent components such as pumps, motors, cylinders, valves, filters and more. Direction of flow is indicated using arrows. Standard symbols provide a consistent way to visualize and understand fluid power systems in schematics.

Pressure Control Valves


   Pressure Relief Valve(safety valve) normally closed
- line pressure is limited to the setting of the valve, secondary part is directed
to tank.
   Proportional Pressure Relief

- line pressure is limited to and proportional to an electronic signal

   Sequence Valve
- when the line pressure reaches the setting of the valve, valve opens
permitting flow to the secondary port. The pilot must be externally drained to
tank.
   Pressure
Reducing - pressure downstream of valve is limited to the setting of the valve
valve
