CHQ 210 Commerical & Heavy Equipment Hydraulics/Powerflow II Credits: (3)
This course provides an in-depth understanding of hydraulic systems commonly utilized in commercial and heavy equipment. Students will test and evaluate hydraulics system pressures, relief pressures, and flow to determine overall condition of the system. Diagnosis and repair of hydraulic system components including: motors, pumps, filters, relief valves, tanks, PTO, cylinders, control valves, and accumulators. Students will conduct advanced hydraulic system diagnostics using hydraulic schematics and equipment. Students will develop and integrate safe working habits and demonstrate knowledge of dangers present while working with these systems. This course has an accompanying lab. Prerequisite(s): CHQ 110 or permission of instructor.
