The forward and return strokes of the cylinder are to be controlled by separate push buttons. The speed of forward and return strokes is to be slow and separately adjustable. The cylinder diameter is 50mm and it has a 160mm. Draw the circuit diagram of this problem with completecomponent and port designation.
(B) Choose the correct answer for the following statements:-
1- For a faster response time, a spool type of directional control valve use
a-Over lapping, b-Zero lapping, c- Under lapping, d- Non of them
Design the circuit (pneumatic/hydraulic/electro-pneumatic/electro-hydraulic) for the following problems:1.A double acting cylinder of pneumatic system will extend when two pushbuttons are pressed. The retraction is doneautomatically when either one of the pushbuttons is released.2A pushbutton is required to extend a cylinder of a pneumatic stamping machine. Once the cylinder at the full extensionposition, it will wait for 5 seconds before it is automatically retracted.3.The cylinder extends when two pushbuttons are pressed. The cylinder retracts when the set pressure of 5 bar is achieved.4.Given a hydraulic system with double acting cylinder. The cylinder extends when the lever is triggered. The retraction of thecylinder is achieved by another lever.

- Refer to the circuit shown in Figure 16-11. Assume that the platform is located on the lower floor. When the UP push button is pressed, the platform rises. When the platform reaches the upper floor, however, the pump does not turn off but continues to run until the overload relay opens the overload contacts. Which of the following could cause this problem? a. The solenoid valve opened when limit switch LS1 opened. b. The UP push button is shorted. c. Limit switch LS1 did not open its contacts. d. Limit switch LS2 contacts did not reclose when the platform began to rise.arrow_forwardRefer to the schematic diagram in Figure 318. Assume that the motor is not running. When the third speed push button is pressed, the motor starts in its lowest speed. After a delay of 3 seconds, the motor accelerates to second speed and 3 seconds later to third speed. After a period of about 1 minute, the fourth speed push button is pressed, but the motor does not accelerate to fourth speed. Which of the following could cause this problem? a. Control relay CR2 coil is open. b. S2 contactor coil is open. c. CR3 coil is shorted. d. S3 contactor coil is open.arrow_forwardRefer to the circuit shown in Figure 25–5. Assume that timer TR1 is set for a delay of 10 seconds and timer TR2 is set for a delay of 5 seconds. When the START button is pressed, the motor starts. After 10 seconds the S1 contacts open and the motor continues to accelerate, but never reaches full speed. After a delay of about 30 seconds, the motor trips out on overload. Which of the following could cause this problem? TR1 coil is open. S2 coil is open. S1 coil is open. R coil is open.arrow_forward
- Refer to the circuit shown in Figure 16-11. Assume that the platform is located on the bottom floor. When the UP push button is pressed the pump motor does not start. Which of the following could not cause this problem? The contacts of limit switch LS1 are open. The contacts of limit switch LS2 are open. Motor starter coil M is open. The overload contact is open.arrow_forwardThe piston rod of a double-acting cylinder is to advance when a 3/2- way push button valve is actuated manually. The cylinder is to remain advanced until a second valve is actuated. The signal of the second valve can only take effect after the first valve has been released. The cylinder is to then return to the initial position. The cylinder is to remain in the initial position until a new start signal is given. The speed of the cylinder is to be adjustable in both directions.Draw the circuit diagram for the problem.arrow_forwardIn relation to the circuit presented below, mark the alternative(s) that you consider correct. 1 To enable actuator A2 to advance, it is necessary to switch valve V2 to the leftmost position and ensure that valve V1 is in its initial (intermediate) position. 2 Switching valve V2 to the leftmost position allows actuator A2 to advance, but for this to happen, valve V1 must also be switched to the leftmost position. 3 When activating valve V1, using the locking lever installed on the left side of it, the two actuators (A1 and A2) are allowed to advance. 4 Hydraulic pump B1 is a simple variable displacement type. 5 Valves V1 and V2 have a TANDEM center.arrow_forward
- To answer the following questions refer to the circuit shown in Figure 41–10. Assume that the third speed push button is pressed. Explain the sequence of operation for the circuit.arrow_forwardRefer to the circuit shown in Figure 4221. Assume that the THIRD SPEED push button is pressed. The motor starts in second speed, skipping first speed. After 5 seconds, the motor accelerates to third speed. Which of the following could cause this problem? a. S1 contactor coil is open. b. CR1 contactor coil is open. c. TRl timer coil is open. d. S1 load contacts are shorted.arrow_forwardTo answer the following questions refer to the circuit shown in Figure 4110. Assume that the third speed push button is pressed and the motor starts in its first or lowest speed. After a delay of 3 seconds, the motor accelerates to its second speed, but never accelerates to its highest or third speed. Which of the following could cause this problem? a. CR coil is open. b. Coil 2TR is open. c. Coil 1TR is open. d. Coil 1S is open.arrow_forward
