DPT 210 Adv Fluid Power Dynamics

This advanced hydraulics course will utilize variable displacement, pressure compensated hydraulic pumps, valves and components common to current production agricultural tractors and equipment to aid students in developing diagnostic and repair skills necessary to become proficient technicians. Students will become familiar with hydraulic pump diagnostics, priority circuit identification, flow control system diagnostics and electronic valve calibration. Component identification and inspection as well as direct system operation in the lab setting are fundamental elements of this course. Hydrostatic drives and motors will also be explored.
