Hydraulic symbols function as the universal “language” of fluid power diagrams. They stand in for pumps, motors, valves, cylinders, connections, and control elements — allowing engineers across different regions and disciplines to understand a hydraulic circuit at a glance. In this guide, you will l

1. Overview of Hydraulic SystemsHydraulic systems transmit power through pressurized fluid to operate machinery. These systems convert mechanical energy into hydraulic energy (pressure and flow), enabling precise control of force and motion. Because of their high power density, responsiveness, and r
