Across
  1. 4. Valve A valve that allows flow in one direction but prevents flow in the opposite direction.
  2. 6. A device used to spray an oil mist into the stream of a pneumatic system.
  3. 7. A measure of a fluid’s thickness or resistance to flow.
  4. 11. Any device that controls, either automatically or manually, the flow of a fluid.
  5. 12. An air pump that compresses air into a receiver tank.
  6. 13. Meter A device used to measure flow rate.
  7. 15. Cylinder A cylinder that acts under pressure in one direction only and returns automatically when the pressure is released.
  8. 17. Relief Valve A type of pressure control valve that limits the maximum pressure in a hydraulic or pneumatic circuit.
  9. 18. A switching device that uses the magnetic field generated by an electrical current for actuation.
  10. 19. A part of an axle or shaft bent out at right angles, for converting reciprocal to circular motion and vice versa.
  11. 20. Valve Used to start and stop flow in a circuit.
  12. 21. Pressure The pressure exerted by the weight of the atmosphere above the point of measurement.
  13. 23. Law Pressure exerted by a confined fluid acts undiminished equally in all directions.
  14. 25. Tank A device that holds the compressed air in a pneumatic system.
  15. 26. Cylinder A cylinder that can act under pressure in both directions (extend and retract) to move a load.
  16. 28. A device used to remove contamination from a fluid.
  17. 29. Velocity The distance the fluid travels through a system in a given period of time.
Down
  1. 1. The tank that holds the fluid in a hydraulic system.
  2. 2. The amount or quantity of something.
  3. 3. The use of a liquid flowing under pressure to transmit power from one location to another.
  4. 5. Pressure The total pressure exerted on a system, including atmospheric pressure.
  5. 8. A device used to convert fluid power into mechanical power in the form of linear motion.
  6. 9. Valve Used to control which path fluid takes in a circuit.
  7. 10. Law The absolute pressure of a confined gas is proportional to its temperature, provided its volume stays constant.
  8. 14. A device used to create flow in a hydraulic system.
  9. 16. Law States that the volume of a confined gas is proportional to its temperature, provided its pressure remains constant.
  10. 22. A sliding piece moved by or moving against fluid pressure which usually consists of a short cylindrical body fitting within a cylindrical chamber or vessel along which it moves back and forth.
  11. 23. The use of gas flowing under pressure to transmit power from one location to another.
  12. 24. Lines Used to transport fluid in a circuit.
  13. 27. Law The volume of a gas at constant temperature varies inversely with the pressure exerted on it.
  14. 28. Power The use of a fluid (liquid or gas) to transmit power from one location to another.
