EGT 130 - Fluid Power Systems & Technology (4 credit hours)

Offered in Variable Terms (3-2-0)
Begins by covering the basics of pneumatics and pneumatic circuits. Learners then advance to the principles of process and flow, air logic, and pneumatic maintenance. Pneumatic speed control circuits and pneumatic directional control valve applications are also covered. We will then proceed to study similar principles in hydraulic systems, with application to basic hydraulic circuits, pressure control circuits, hydraulic schematics, and sequence valves. Learners will also study how to operate a 4-way, 3- position directional control valve, the basic rules of drawing hydraulic schematics, the function of the flow control valve, and more.
