Visually seeing a circuit perform along with a description of operation can increase the comprehension of a particular component’s operation and its function within the circuit.

These animated presentations can be used by:

• Instructors to assist in Hydraulic Specialist (HS) Certification review training
• Individuals to enhance their preparation to take the HS Certification test.
• Anyone interested learning component function and circuit operation

A BIT OF BACKGROUND

The circuit schematics found in the IFPS Certification Study Manuals are designed to illustrate an operational or theoretical hydraulic system showing the interaction of components to achieve a desired output.

ACertification Study Manual is not designed as a teaching document but rather a means of reviewing or reinforcing concepts to a certification test candidate and cannot possibly cover every application of a component within a hydraulic circuit.  Subject matter experts developed the circuits in the Study Manual that are intended to represent a specific application or the use of a component within a circuit to illustrate the typical usage.  These have been placed in the Study Manual to facilitate a review of their operation and function.

WHAT YOU'LL DOWNLOAD 

Color-coded, animated, and voiceover .mp4 and .wmv files of each circuit operation using ANSI recognized color designations. Each circuit shows the sequence of operations within the hydraulic circuit as well as the flow paths during operation.

Key bullet points for each circuit from Study Manuals to assist in the understanding of the components’ function and interaction within the circuit.
