9621 Basic Hydraulics This is a beginning course combining fundamentals of electrical controls and hydraulic pump curves, basic theory using Pascal’s Law, pressure displacement,. This is geared for the for the understanding of theory and lab practical application of pump design and operation. We will be utilizing a Vickers’s trainer in actual lab experiences using predetermined experiments associating schematic drawings and theory of operation specifically understanding the laws of physics governing fluid powers. The objective of this course is to introduce a plant maintenance personnel to basic theory as well as problem solving strategies. This course will involve students in the development, building and providing written and oral understanding with associated lab experience by making logical conclusions from practical experience in the sizing and purpose of field application. The student is to have an equivalent background in basic math and able to demonstrate the proper use of test equipment while supervised
