1. Non-separator type
2. Separator type
4. Explain non-separator type gas loaded accumulator?
In this type, the gas is lled at the top and the heavy oil at the
bottom of the shell. There is no separator between the gas and
oil and thus the pressurized gas pushes the oil directly.
5 . What are the three basic types of separator type gas loaded
accumulator?
1. Piston type
2. Diaphragm type 3.Bladder type
6. What are the most common applications of accumulators in

hydraulic system?

external leakage.
3. Accumulator is used as an emergency power source
4. Accumulator is used as a hydraulic shock absorber.
7. What is the function of accumulator?

Accumulator is used as an auxiliary power source. It is a device

which stores the potential energy of the uid. The stored
potential energy in the accumulator acts as a quick secondary
source of power and does useful work as required by the
system.
8. What are the conditions for the two cylinders to be

synchronized?
For the two cylinders to be synchronized, the piston area of

cylinder 2 must be equal to the difference between areas of the
piston and piston rod for cylinder 1. i.e. Ap2 =Ap1 –AR1 Also,

ApI in cylinder 1 to overcome the loads F I and F 2 acting on
both cylinders. i.e. P1Apl =FI +F2

Unit-III
1. Name the important auxiliary components used in the

hydraulic circuits?.
1. Hydraulic reservoir
2. Filters and strainers
3. Sealing
4. Hydraulic accumulators
5. Pressure intensi ers (or) Boosters.

hydraulic circuit?
1. Safety of operation
2. Performance of desired function
3. Ef ciency of operation
3. What is the use of regenerative circuit?
Regenerative circuit is used to increase the speed of extension

stroke of the double acting hydraulic cylinder.
4. What is the circuit for shaping machine? Quick Return

Motion Circuits.
5. What is automatic sequencing circuit?
By sequencing a number of pneumatic cylinders, various

machining and tooling operations may easily be obtained in a
machine. By using this technique, the cylinders can be
actuated one after another in sequences like clamping, feeding
and ejecting (or) lifting, pushing and clamping (or) in various

other combinations. The pneumatic circuit utilizing this 5
technique is known as automatic sequencing circuit. Correct
sequence of motion of each cylinder and the respective cycle
time, should be carefully studied before designing such a
circuit.
6. What is a sequencing circuit?
Process control pneumatics is also called as sequencing. It

means performing number of actions one after another which
follows each other in a simple order or with an order
determined by sensors.
7. Draw a hydraulic circuit for a machine tool with the

following features:
(a) Clamp the job
(b) Slow movement (extension) of the cutting tool.
(c) Rapid return of tool
Unit-IV
1. What is pneumatic direction control valve?
Pneumatic direction control valve is used to control the

direction of air path. These Valves have generally two, three,
four (or) ve ports: These ports are designated as P:
Compressor line port R: Exhaust port (T is case of hydraulics)
A, B: Working ports connected to actuator.
2. What is the use of Time Delay Valves?

Pneumatic time delay valves are used to delay operations

where time based sequences are required.
3. What is a fast exhaust valve?
A fast exhaust valve is used to vent cylinder quickly. It is

primary used with spring return (single acting) pneumatic
cylinders.
4. Differentiate between hydraulic and pneumatic systems?
The working uid of hydraulic system is water (or) oil (or) any
liquid. The working uid of pneumatic circuit is air Hydraulic
systems are designed for heavy loads where as pneumatic
systems are designed for low (or) medium loads.
5. What is the function of pneumatic circuit using quick

exhaust valve?
By quickly exhausting the air from the cylinder, the cylinder

speed can be exhausted. 6. What is Time delay circuit?
In certain applications, the impulse to the main direction

control valve may have to be delayed to pre-determined time
for different operational reasons. A pneumatic time delay valve
may be used in such cases. A pneumatic circuit using this time
delay valve is known as time delay circuit.
7. What is the use of compressor?

A compressor is a machine which compresses air (or) any other

gas from atmospheric pressure to a desired higher pressure
level.
8. Name two basic types of compressors?
1. Positive displacement compressors
2. Dynamic (Turbo) compressors.
9. Differentiate between single acting and double acting

compressors.
In a single acting compressor, the compression takes place 011

one side of the piston for each revolution of crank shaft.
In a double acting cylinder, compression takes place on both

faces of the piston giving two compression strokes for each
revolution of the crankshaft.
10. De ne FRL unit?
Air is not clean and hence contamination may result in

pneumatic circuit. Also, due to time uctuations, the receiver
air pressure does not remain constant. Also, some parts of the
Pneumatic system have to be lubricated for proper
maintenance. For cleaning the air, regulating the pressure of
air and lubricating pneumatic parts, three units 'Filter -
Pressure Regulator - Lubricator' (Trio unit) are put together
and this combined unit - Trio unit - is called FRL unit.
Unit-V
1. What is Low Cost Automation?

There are ve stages of manufacturing process for automation

namely 1. Loading 2. Clamping 3. Machining 4. Unclamping 5.
Unloading. The cost involved in loading and unloading stages
is very high. So, in semi automation, these two states are done
manually and other stages are automated. Semi automation
can be pro tably being incorporated in manufacturing
industries. This type of automation is called "Low Cost
Automation" Also, in many industries, automation is done in
selected areas to enhance the productivity. Material handling
and machine sequence are examples of such type of
automation.
2. What is meant by automation?
Automation of a process plant (or) a ow line is done by means

of specially designed machinery and equipments, which
represent the highest level of automation. Chemical processing
and automated assembly lines are examples of such
automation.
3. What are the salient features of "Low cost Automation".
In most of the industrial plants, centralized compressed air

supply will exist. Hence, simple automation of machining
sequences (or) material handling can be done without much
expense. Low cost automation is attempted without going for a
major alteration of the existing set up. Low cost automation
enhances productivity. The sequencing pneumatic circuit is an
example of "Low cost Automation"
4. Name two types of control systems?

1. Open loop control system
2. Closed loop control system.
5. Explain the closed loop control system for a ow through a

pipe?
A ow through pipe is continuously measured and compared

with the desired value to get the error signal (error signal is a
difference between actual and desired values). Based on this
error signal, the controller gives a signal to actuate the valve to
adjust the ow (increase (or) decrease depending on the value
of error being positive (or) negative). This is called a closed
loop control system.
6. Explain Fluidic Logic Control?
In many plants, closed loop control is achieved by electronic

devices based on I different logic functions such as AND, OR,
NOT and MEMORY. Logic controls can be de ned as design of
control system based on reasoning arising out of deductive
principle. However, the electronic control system is not only
control system used in industries. If the pneumatic control
system using low pressure air is used to achieve the above logic
control functions, then it is known as uidic Logic Control.
7. What is uidics?
Fluidics is the technology that utilizes uid ow phenomena in

components and circuits to perform a wide variety of control
functions including sensing, logic and m more functions.
8. How pump cavitation is identi ed?
Cavitation is the inability of a pump to draw a full charge of oil

either because of air leaks or restrictions in the inlet line.
When a pump starts to cavitate, its noise level increases and it
may become very hot around the shaft and front bearing.
Other symptoms of cavitation are erratic movement of
