Questions and Answers

What is the primary reason for selecting a hydraulic oil with high viscosity?

  • To increase the actuator output speeds
  • To reduce friction and increase power
  • To maintain film strength for lubrication and sealing (correct)
  • To reduce the temperature of the system
  • What is the consequence of having hydraulic oil with viscosity that is too high?

  • Increased lubrication and reduced friction
  • Decreased temperature and increased actuator output speeds
  • Reduced internal leakage and increased oil film strength
  • Increased power required to drive the system and sluggish operation (correct)
  • What is the primary function of hydraulic oil in a hydraulic system?

  • To pressurize the system
  • To lubricate the components of the system (correct)
  • To clean the system
  • To cool the system
