Learners using Amatrol’s advanced hydraulics eLearning course will study basic principles of fluids and conditioning, including conductors, fluid viscosity and compressibility, filtration, reservoirs, and heat exchangers. Individual lessons focus on topics like how to size a conductor, the effects of viscosity on internal leakage and pressure settings, how seal materials are determined by hydraulic fluid type, and the construction and operation of various types of filters. Learners will also practice skills, such as measuring the viscosity of a fluid, inspecting the seals of a subplated directional control valve, and sizing a heat exchanger.
