    The document discusses hydraulic systems and their components. It addresses the purposes of regulators, cutouts, and accumulators. It also covers how hydraulic pressure, force, and piston area are related. Specifically: 1) Regulators control the pump's pressure output within limits, while cutouts relieve pump load and limit fluid loss. 2) In a jack with a ram on one side, hydraulic pressure will move the ram towards that side due to differential piston areas. 3) With the same pressure, a jack with a 4 sq in piston will exert twice as much force as one with a 2 sq in piston.

    1.

    The normal purpose of a regulator (cut out) in a hydraulic system is a) to control the flow of hydraulic fluid from the reservoir to the pump b) to control the pressure output of the pump within specific limits c) to control the temperature of the hydraulic fluid

    2.

    A purpose of a cut out in a hydraulic system a) is to limit loss of fluid in the event of pipe fracture b) c) is to prevent creep in jack operated services which have several selected positions is to relieve the pump of load when the operation of services is complete and the accumulator charged with fluid

    3.

    In a jack with a ram only on one side and hydraulic fluid applied from both sides a) the ram will move to the side where the ram is, due to pressure acting on differential areas b) the ram will move opposite to the side where the ram is due to pressure acting on differential areas c) a condition of hydraulic lock exists and no movement will take place

    4.

    Using the same hydraulic pressure, the force applied by a hydraulic jack of 4 sq inch piston area a) will be equal to that applied by a similar jack of 2 sq inch piston area b) will be twice that applied by a similar jack of 2 sq inch piston area c) will be half that applied by a similar jack of 2 sq inch piston area

    5.

    A pressure of 100 psi act on two jacks in a hydraulic system piston area 2 sq in and 4 sq in a) the smaller jack will exert a force of 50 lb and the larger a force of 25 lb b) the two jacks will exert the same force

    c) the smaller jack will exert a force of 200 lb and the larger a force of 400 lb

    6.

    Hydraulic pressure can be restored by a) the use of a pressure/heat exchanger b) compressing the air charge in an accumulator c) compressing the fluid in a reservoir

    7.

    The purpose of an accumulator in a hydraulic system is to a) collect air from the hydraulic fluid, thus reducing the requirement for frequent bleeding b) relieve excess pressure c) store hydraulic fluid under pressure

    8.

    If the hydraulic system accumulator has a low air pressure, it will cause a) rapid pressure fluctuations during operation of services b) rapid movement of the operating jacks c) slow build up of pressure in the system

    9.

    When checking a hydraulic accumulator initial air pressure, the hydraulic system pressure a) should be at the normal working pressure b) should be released c) is not important

    10.

    If 1500 psi hydraulic pressure is pumped into an accumulator, with a pre-charge air pressure of 1000 psi the gauge will read a) 2500 psi b) 1000 psi c) 1500 psi
